Measure how thick your door is. Draw two lines on each strap with the thickness of the door between the two lines. The distance from the edge to the first line is how much of an overhand you want. I used two inches. Make sure that your lines are perpendicular to the edge.

Use your vise to bend the strap on each line. Tighten the jaws on the line and bend it by hand.

Now that you have two candy cane shapes, feel free to run around and have fun with them. They're great for opening fridge doors and...not much else.

Put the hooks on a door and hold up the easel to them, in order to determine how far down they need to be screwed in.

Flip your easel over and find the center. I put them each 5 inches from the center.Use the square to align them and mark the screw holes. Drill and screw them in.

At this point, your easel is done. I opted to add a ledge to mine, if you did, too, continue to the next step.
