When my mom visited, she left behind her Sunset magazine. I saw this idea for turning old colanders into hanging baskets for strawberries. What a fun idea! One of our neighbors grows their strawberries in hanging baskets and I loved how easy it made harvesting. We just might have an old colander ready to be recycled for this very purpose….
Hooray for getting to the strawberries before the slugs do! 🙂
ooh! i have one of those that needs a new job. 🙂 and my strawberries will like being up off the ground where the slugs can’t get them…
Katharine- So glad I could pass on the inspiration! 🙂
I love this idea! I have tons of hooks in the roof of my overhang outside my front door left from a previous owner and have been struggling to fill them all…strawberries in a recycled colander is seriously brilliant. Thank you! <3
