Genius Uses For Old Pot And Pan Lids Around The Home And Garden
By MASIE O'TOOLE
Hanging Bird Bath
Make a diamond shape from four pieces of chain, place a pot lid (without a hole for steam) in the center, secure the chain to a branch, and fill it with water.
Coat Rack
Clean your old lids first, then secure them to a wooden backing using glue or a couple of screws to make the perfect kitchen rack for towels, aprons, or cooking utensils.
Bird Feeder
This bird feeder places one pot lid above a smaller one to protect the seeds. Remove the pots’ handles, run a metal bar through the holes, and attach it to a lawn hook.
Wall Clock
Pot lids make great clocks due to their shape and the fact that they already have a hole in the middle. Simply remove the handle, install a clock kit, and set the time.
Halloween Decor
Create an adorable jack-o-lantern by simply painting an old pot lid orange, green, or even glow-in-the-dark before adding facial features and wacky decorations.
