A lot of homeowners are replacing their environmentally un-cool fireplaces with gas inserts. Here’s a great idea how you can re-purpose those fireplace tools.
The beauty of this project is it’s simplicity…..just stick them in the ground to use as garden stakes! You don’t need to do anything to them, as they’re usually already pretty cool looking – actually, most look even better as a garden stake than they did as a fireplace tool!
In addition to fireplace tools, there’s a curtain rod with a decorative ball on the top that was no longer needed (it’s on the far right-hand side). If you don’t happen to have one lying around, you can easily pick these up at most home or craft stores for pretty reasonable prices. Again, sometimes these look much better as garden stakes than curtain rods!
