I found the most brilliant example of, "recycle stuff you already have into neat-o crafty type thingies." I have made flower pot holders out of wire hangers. Look out, friends and neighbors! Soon you will not be able to pass our house without admiring the flower pots hooked onto the fence!
The process was easy and nearly painless. Just bend the hooked part up so that it is perpendicular to its previous plane of existence. Then, snip the bottom wire in the middle, bend it around the flower pot you want to hang, twist the wires around each other and snip off the excess on either side. Viola! Instant hanging flower pots! Just don't stab yourself in the thumb with one of the sharp ends of the cut wire, or you'll end up getting a lecture on tetanus from your hypochondriac of a husband.
To celebrate our soon-to-be-lovely fenceline, Arrow and Stella trampled the hostas along the front walk nearly to death. [sigh] Anyone looking to give any hostas away, I'm your huckleberry!

I do have a lot of hostas. Come by with a box or crate and I'll dig some up for you.
