Topic: DIY on coat hangers

[kenkew]

No gardener in the world will throw away a decent bit of strong wire...my latest use for a bit of old wire coat hanger was lots of 'hooks' for fat balls.
What have you used them for in the garden?

Ken,

..would agree....what a very useful tool they are....

...used mine for everything from removing car stereo's (my own), to small cloches.... ;D

[Mrs Ava]

and of course they are very handy for hanging clothes up in your wardrobe.  ;) ;D ;)

Emma Jane must pass your handy tip onto my husband.  ;D  ;D  ;D busy_lizzie

[Mrs Ava]

BL, my pleasure, kinda hoping Ava would read it and pick up that handy tip!   ::)

Won't work, ladies. When the men see what they can really do with them their clothes will be like mine, on the floor, bed, chair, door, washer, table......

[busy_lizzie]

you got it right Ken!  ;D ;D ;D busy_lizzie

Changed my mind now about you coming to live in Scotland - I've already got a man as messy as you - you'd only encourage each other!  :P

Oh! You were thinking of sharing me?

Another use for wire coat hangers; When you next pot up an indoor plant that is tall enough to need support, starighten out the hanger, put a 'curl' in one end and feed it up through the hole of the pot. Plant your plant and the wire will do as a support. Boom, boom.

.... and if you put a curl in the top end, you could hang it up as well!

By 'eck! You is beating me at my own game, Ceri. (That's my sister's name.)
