    I love the recycle of old garden hose's. I see them in the recycle bins quite often. I think I will re-recycle some.

    I couldn't find the garden hose recycle, and would like to see it. There are a lot of old hoses around here that I could do SOMETHING with Should I just go to Pinterest Fails?

    Liked that idea too, but in reading the tute I don't quite know how she connects another hose...just butts them together? Not an explanation on how to......also when she cuts those ties, is that then the underside of that rubber rug?

    I played on that site for quite a while. Saw no garden hoses. I use foot-or-two-long pieces from my old hoses to protect my trees from the wire I use to tie my young trees to stakes.

    Apparently you found the site for the garden hoses. Did any one else find it? I haven't seen it, and have a few garden hoses I could use for something besides protecting my trees.

    I followed the link and just scrolled down some and there was the rug made of garden hoses and zip ties. And it has a link to the actual tutorial.
