How Easy Was That?

©
I was busy cleaning out some stuff from the basement ... not throwing it away, just sorting through it looking for something else ... when I came upon the 3 ring metal part of an old binder.  Who knows why I saved it, but I did, and now I've re'find' it into a storage solution for three garden hand tools I also found hiding in the basement.



With just two nails and a hammer it was fastened to a shelf on the workbench.  Open the rings and you can hang on the tools.  Snap the rings shut and those tools won't fall off.


 How easy was that?

  6. What a clever idea! Sure beats my method of leaving garden tools lying here, there and everywhere, spending half the day trying to track them down. :))

  7. Now that is a great idea, I would just have to remember to put the tools back. I have a habit of leaving them stuck in the garden to mark where I finished for the day and never find it again.
