They just get used by me as:
A holder for garden nozzles, sprayers, measuring spoons, etc.

or on the other side of the trailer counter top in the kitchen as a kitchen utensil holder:

And my latest find is my favorite. This one(holding ten pairs of eyeglasses) with neat handles on the ends, a wavy pattern and the nice snap shut compartment that holds eyedrops and glass cleaning wipes:

I've even used one in my booth in the antique mall to hold/display things. They're cheap in thrift stores(I'm surprised and grateful that people have saved them and they get donated!)

Janice you thrifty thing! That is a good idea. I might put one down in Richard's tool room. He has about 10 thousand screwdrivers.

Too cool, I never would have thought of reusing those, I'm re doing a craft room and need a better way to organize, I'll try the local dish washer repair place. The sad thing is is that they make dishwashers to be thrown away, not repaired

how sweet it is to love some one, how right itis to care

Oh, another idea would be to attach the around the garden fence to hold items I'm always looking for and want close by. Thank you for the idea

I found this wall hanging one last Saturday at a church basement sale. It's so different, I just had to post a pic of it:

The front panel snaps closed.
Carol - I love your idea about using it in the garden. That's where the next one will go!

I use my long skinny door mount version out in the barn. It holds those elusive hoof picks and small combs that always seem to migrate to the bottom of the tack box. Very handy for all the small grooming items for the horses!
