Anytime you can repurpose an already purchased item for another household or garden chore you are not only doing yourself a favor you are keeping one more thing out of the landfills. If everyone would do this it would mean we buy less and waste less. This will enrich our lives and cause less damage to our planet. Kudos for the idea! I encourage everyone who reads this idea to pass it on to someone who may not read it. Thanks for posting this idea.
