My million dollar idea.

We were at Mernards for some supplies and my great idea was crushed.There in the garden center were water catchers for hanging baskets. They are clear plastic.
 I did buy 2 for the big ferns I have. $1.95 each. I still think my idea is better.

Late last summer I found some nice red plastic bowls. $1.00 each.
At first I bought one for a popcorn dish for Mr.T.
 It is 11 1/2" x 6"deep.
When I got it home I had a great idea.You know the kind.
Why didn't I think of this a long time ago idea!
 I tried the bowl on the plant. A HA! A perfect fit for the 10 inch hanging baskets.
It was time to bring my hanging plants inside.

 I did not want to put them in the greenhouse.I wanted to enjoy them all winter in the house. And I have enjoyed watching them grow.

 I got out my trusty drill. Put 3 holes in the brim of the bowl where the hangers are on my hanging basket plants. Ran a wire up through the hole and wrapped it around the hanger on the pot. Ta Da a great looking( Not just a plain you can see the yucky water  plastic.) pot cover.

No more water on the floor.No more carrying the pot to the sink to get it watered.
So much for my great money making idea. It is always the case. Never will be rich,but am happy.
Have a good rest of the week.j
