Orchid Hobby tips & ideas to save money

[Ely]

Oooo, I got me an idea! Let's make a coat out of a towel! Oh wait, that was the Jim Gaffigan kicking in... Any way, take a metal coat hanger and cut out the straight bottom part. Wrap it in florists tape and you have an instant spike support stick that is inexpensive, stylish, and bendable! but wait! Don't throw away that other piece of hanger! Get yer'self a pair of needle-nose pliers and curve the ends up toward the hanger hook. Take some epoxy and secure the twisted metal at the top of the hanger hook and wrap it in florist's tape. Ta-dah! An air basket for "mounted" orchids! A-thank-you!
