This may not qualify for this community according to my own definition. I hope I don’t get in trouble.

The real ghetto part is not bothering to refinish the spots where the hinges were on the cabinet door you used for the shelf, LOL. Or turning it the other way so the non-hinge side was facing out, for that matter.

Otherwise, nice job! I need a pot rack myself, and this post inspires me to accept it being "ghetto" if that helps me get it done.

I stopped letting perfect get in the way of good enough. And now my pots and pans are happy.

I kind of think it gives it character.

But I also did something quite similar several years ago for my own pans! It worked great for years.

Then what happened?

I moved and it no longer worked for my purposes!
