Coats – if you’re unlucky enough to live in a climate where you need one. So, you will need one or more coat hooks for them.
Look around your home. How many things ‘hang’? Of course, there are photos, paintings, and prints. But what about hats and caps? Rainwear? Keys? You need to be able to produce plenty of hooks to hang these items.
As you can see here, all hooks aren’t the same. Some are spoons or forks. Others are tree branches, old bike chains, tap, and light fittings, and even discarded drawers and doorknobs.
It seems the options are limited only by your imagination.
