This was the last wire hanger that I could find otherwise I would have shown the progressive steps. Grab the neck of the hanger and pull it so that the neck is at one end and a bend is at the other. Cut the neck off with wire cutters and then the bottom bend in the middle. You will now have two staples with approx 8 inch legs. Leave the staple in the "V" shape and squeeze it the legs so they are parallel when you push it through the cloth into to soil. The spring of the legs will hold the soil better.You can also straigten the wire and rebend it to form a larger top but the legs will be shorter.
