Summer is in high gear and soon we will be thinking about fall. (gasp…did I just say that?) But now, I am thoroughly enjoying all that summer has to offer. My favorite is especially the outdoor times and all there is to relish. Last week, I shared with you my curbside chest makeover and promised to show you what I would create with this wire holder thingy. After having it for a year trying to decide what to do with it, I finally settled on turning it into a repurposed planter. Yes, a planter.
So many of you guessed it was a canning jar lifter…nope. It doesn’t hold any of them as the openings are too small. Some suggested a glass holder from the 60’s, and that was my first guess too because of the design and rubber tips. You can see more of the same on Google. But…for the life of me, over a year I couldn’t find a single thrifted glass set to fit in those narrow openings.
I even tried upside down glass insulators…anything! I wasn’t going to give up on this cool thing I paid 25 cents for. tsk. It wasn’t until my friend, Mandy – my fellow curbside picker – found these
