Get Organized: Diy Wood Mail Sorter Plans and Tutorial

Hello, all my Fox Hollow Cottage friends! My name is Candace and I blog over at Vintage News Junkie. I am an Emmy Award winning former news gal who now has a DIY/Home blog chock full of fun crafts, lots of home projects, and tutorial videos to boot! If you listen close enough, you may just hear the click of the clapperboard amidst the sawing and sanding of our latest project!

It’s that time of year… time to pack up all the Christmas decor and get things organized for the new year! Doesn’t it feel good? I love getting things all cleaned up after the hustle bustle of the holidays… and today I’m starting with the big pile of mail on the kitchen table. You have a pile like this too, right??

If you follow my blog, you know I like chunky stuff! Chunky furniture, chunky jewelry, chunky peanut butter. Okay, I digress. And the more rustic the better! I searched and searched for a mail sorter that fit the bill. (no pun intended!) But just couldn’t find one… so the hubs and I decided to make one! And I’ve got the build plan so you can make one too!!

Here’s what you need to buy at the hardware store:

1- 1″ x 8′ x 10′ whitewood board3- 3/8″ x 2″ x 36″ whitewood strips3 coat hooks1 sawtooth hook (hanger)

Here are the cuts you need to make:

1- 36″ x 9¼” (back of sorter)3- 9¼” x 7″ (front facing)6- 6¼” x 2 5/8″ x 6¾” (triangle braces)7- 9¼” x 1½” (long framing)6- 4″ x 1½” (short framing)

Start by attaching your triangle braces to the back of your facings on all three pieces. These will be your mail slots. We attached all of our pieces of wood using a little wood glue and a nail to hold it in place.

Then once you have your mail slots built, attach your framing to the front. Four pieces to each mail slot.

You can go ahead and attach your extra piece of framing to the very top of your long board. That will be the top of your mail sorter. And then stain all of your pieces. You want to stain it now, because once you put it together, you won’t be able to get down in the crevases behind the mail slots.

I use a foam brush to apply my stain. I wanted a dark rich color so I went with Rustoleum stain in Dark Walnut. I applied the stain, let it sit for about 3 minutes or so and then wiped off the excess. Then once it was dry, a light sanding around the edges gives her the finish I wanted. Then it was time to put her togther!

The back of our mail sorter is 3 feet long, so to make sure our mail slots are evenly spaced, take a piece of chalk and mark on your board at 5″, 14½” and 24½”. This is where you will place your mail slots so they are evenly spaced and will allow enough room at the bottom for your hooks! Place the bottom of each mail slot on your marks and attach. We use our Ryobi AirStrike Nailer, but a good old fashion hammer and nails would do the trick too!

I’m an eye-baller when it comes to something like the hooks… I just put the hooks where I thought they looked good and drilled a couple pilot holes. Then popped the hooks in place!

A simple sawtooth hook on the back is how we hung our mail sorter. Make sure you get a stout one… your mail sorter will be heavy! So what do you think?

Chunky and rustic… just the way I like it.
