Yoga Mat Wall Holder
My daughter wanted a yoga mat holder for Christmas. I watched a ridiculous video and thought....this is easy. And it was. This was a cheap, easy and fun project.
I went to Lowes and had them cut a 1x6 6ft in half for me. I sanded the edges and layer down some parchment paper on my counter (had to protect it in case I made a mess. I glued the two pieces together and let set overnight. (I used L brackets also). It certainly didn’t need to sit overnight, but I had so many things going at once.
I put 3 hangers on the back. I also used plant hooks (Lowes indoor plant area). I had to get 5/8” screws. The ones that came with the hooks were way too long.
I decided to dig out my wood burner and play a little. I may have gotten a little carried away. I used carbon paper and pencil for design that I printed off.
These are the L brackets I used to secure the boards. The wood glue is awesome though.
and more burning. Haha
Don’t judge...THIS is where she wanted it hung. I asked her if she wanted any stain on it..she said no. So it just got a light clear coat of varnish.
Enjoyed the project?

This is a great idea! I’ve always admired DIY projects like this; they’re so personal and unique. Recently, I’ve been exploring ways to make yoga more accessible for my parents, and I stumbled upon chair yoga for seniors https://betterme.world/articles/chair-yoga-for-seniors/. It’s a gentle approach they’ve really enjoyed, and it inspired me to make a small rack for their yoga props, too!
