SOS - save old stockings!

Good idea Fran, I use tights as garden ties.

they come in handy in so many ways, don't they? *s*

Great idea.. I'm going to do this! :)

what a clever idea, think I will try that

*s* I had to put a clip on the smallest pots - I ran out of toes and had to use the upper part of the stocking, which was a bit too wide.

Perhaps the stocking doesn't have to go all the way up the height of stacked pots - I got them out of the bottom easily enough, but sometimes two at once, and it was a bit of a prob to get them back in at the top (maybe beacuse they were above head-height). so long as the bottom half is supported, the rest should stand securely.

That's a great tip! An easy way to keep all pots of the same size together! :-))

nods, I hadn't realised how many of what sizes I had until i did this to them - I'd tried to sort them before, but they kept getting moved so I could get at ones behind them and ended up a total mess.

Maybe I only need to put out a few at a time, and leave the rest [still stockinged] in the shed - they're a bit too close to the work top to not get in the way.

I tend to stack things in at least two parts - then, when I've used the first and have to get out the second, I know it's time to get some more to be the new backup
