Dismantling an old display stand so I can ‘re-use’ it for another type of display, I ended up with some metal dowels. My eyes fell on the handful of feedbag string that I ‘harvested’ from feedbags to make the totes …. mmmm. Now I have room to hang my skirts rather than fold them, since I refused to spend more money on fragile skirt hangers. Feedbag string is very strong. I tied the ends and then looped it 4 times. A clip on each side of the strings keeps them in place.
It isn’t pretty, but it is very functional.
Re-use, re-purpose, whatever you want to call it. Diminishing waste. That is one of many goals.
… with gratitude ^_^
