Decorating Ideas
I hope you get a few decorating ideas from this. I know Y’all have all seen the rake used for yard work, and yes even to hang necklaces on…both good ideas. But Y’all KNOW how much I LOVE reusing JUNK!!!
But, have you seen one used for this?
How cute is that?….and there is still room for stuff to hang on the teeth!
Well….how bout this?
You could even sit your canister of coffee up there….what a decorative idea for a coffee bar!!
Don’t have a coffee bar? Well here’s a decorating idea for something EVERYONE has….myself included.
I’m always needing some organizing ideas for around the cooking area. I always have my stuff sitting right around my stove top. You could even throw a pot holder up there! 🙂
Not into cooking….or coffee? REALLY? Well…how about …………
Why….yes…there is room up there for a wine bottle. I would however hang it in a fairly safe place if I were going to do that! Just sayin’.
No to any of the kitchen ideas? Well….this next few….everyone could use. You’d just be amazed how many things these versatile little buggers will hold.
Digging in the trash is SO worth it! lol
Lets move out of the kitchen for a minute……
Need a key hook?
Or a place to hang you hats and backpacks?
How bout those muddy or wet shoes?
or tools?
Everyone needs a charging station!
I kinda think a place to put your hair sprays and lotion…..
headbands, clips, and other tools?
No? Well what about your perfume?
I LOVE beside the tub organization ….Anything to get those bottles off the side of the tub…right?
Bathroom not your style?
Need a place to put a few books? You could even create a junk light or candle holder, I’m sure!
Was that fifteen…or sixteen? I lost count….but it just goes to show….the RAKE…so useful!
What would you use a rake for? Can you think of any other ways these babies would work?
Love Y’all!

Tammy I love this post. The styling was great. Now I am tempted to use a rake for my knife rack however I would like you to confirm two things – are those Cutco knives and did they rest securely in the tines or did you have to ever so gently place them just for the picture?
Tammy says
They stayed fine…but they did kinda want to lean some what. Yes…they’re cutco. My daughter’s best friend was selling them while they were in college…and I was obligated! lol I think you could squeeze the rake fingers together just a bit…and make them stand better.

Great post Tammy. The styling was perfect. I am seriously considering using your knife rack idea, but I have two questions. Are those Cutco knives (that is what I use) and if so, did the knives hang securely or did you have to take your picture really quick before they got all crooked or fell? 🙂

Shut the door! I don’t know why I hadn’t thought of using it for a shelf. Love the idea of plate and cup holder! The key idea ain’t bad either. I have a rake head that I haven’t decided what to do with yet. Now I have all kinds of ideas!

I HAD AN OLD RAKE HEAD THAT MY DAD GAVE ME, SO I HUNG IT IN MY KITCHEN WITH HOMEMADE POTHOLDERS ON THE TINES & MY GRANDMAS ANTIQUE ROLLING PIN ON TOP!
Tammy says
Well…that was a creative way to deal with a rake! I would love to see pictures of it! Thanks for stopping by! Have a great day!

Love the idea, but how did you attach it to the wall so that it stayed level?
