HANG ON, IT’S JUST A WIRE STRING HOLDER
THe wire holder for a ball of string is one of those handy little items we never knew that we needed until Sally Bourne Interiors helpfully thought to sell it to us.
For £9.99, you can have your very own chic dispenser of string (string not included), instead of having to put up with the ignominy of simply keeping your ball of twine in a drawer and snipping bits off when you need it.
This ingenious device appears to consist of a wire coat hanger (wholesale cost 1p or free with your dry-cleaning), which has been slightly reshaped and painted black. And, er, that’s it.
SHOP PRICE: £9.99. DIY PRICE: nothing for the old wire coat hanger languishing in your wardrobe; £2.99 for a ball of string to hang from it.
