Introduction to the Copper Plant Hanger Project

Garden art such as wall hangings, globes, bird baths, and mosaics are common features in gardens throughout the world. Many of these pieces of garden art are crafted in bulk and sold at almost every garden store. Many garden art fixtures such as wall hangings can be created very simply at home for much less money and a little bit more time. Copper plant hangers, for example, can be fashioned out of old copper wire from a refrigerator and hung on a fence or wall.

"Hi! This is Diana for expertvillage.com and today I am going to show you how to make a copper plant hanger for outside. The one we are going to make today we will only have one pot. This one has three so we are going to make one that is a little bit smaller. So here I have some copper refrigerator tubing wrapped into a curl, painted ceramic pot and some smaller copper tubing that I have welded onto the larger copper tubing and spun that into some curly Q's. Then I planted my geraniums and hung it on the fence. So let me show you how to make this curly copper plant hanger."
