High-Tensile Wire
I'm really liking high-tensile wire. We don't actually have any high-tensile fencing, but we have found other uses for the wire:

- Bracing on fence corners
- Hooks. When we're in a bind for a hook to hang on a peg board or some such, we have been known to create one out of high-tensile wire.
- Hoops
- Tabletop greenhouses
- Support hoops for the cloth we put over some of the crucifers in one of the gardens (We have a terrible problem with cabbage butterflies, which have a different name, but I can never remember it. "Cabbage butterflies" works for me. Anyway, they lay eggs that become voracious cabbage worms, which probably also have another name, but I can never...well you know.)
- Hoop skirts. Yep. 14yo daughter and I used it (with 11yo son's help) to create the hoops in our hoop skirts that we wore to Franklin in December for the Dickens festival there.
