AN outside-the-box garden guru has made a special household item suitable for outdoor use.

Her tip was both easy and environmentally friendly.

Sarah Teresinksi (@redeux_style) was already addicted to her hacking which allows her to ‘upcycle’ a common household item.

All it took to give her backyard an instant upgrade were some hooks that normally fit on the back of closet doors, which she then placed on her fence.

This time, however, the hooks were used to hold baskets plants instead of blouses.

And the more hooks you have, the better, because you can load even more baskets on them.

Her tip works for both long hooks and shorter types that tend to have more of a decorative element.

She recommended checking out Dollar Tree for inexpensive hooks that bend easily.

The money-saving store sells wall-mountable metal hooks for $1.25 — and many buyers had already found their own use for the affordable purchase.

“I love these! They are great for hanging purses and mini backpacks! But also as jewelry!” wrote one buyer.

“I am so happy with this little bracket. It is so convenient. I hung three Dollar Tree white waste bins on the wall to store and organize artificial flowers,” said another satisfied customer.

And the tips kept coming.

If you don’t have a handle on your basket, all you need is a small zip tie that attaches to your hooks. Just add flowers and your spring garden has begun.

She also had another trick up her sleeve.

It turns out that towels can also be hung on the hooks of the outdoor fence next to a swimming pool or on a sprinkler.

Although she’s also mastered hanging laundry baskets on her wrought iron zip-tie fence, you can still use the same hangers on any fence — and they work perfectly for pool storage.

Her fans were grateful for the advice and eager to try out the hooks for themselves.

“This is life changing. Thank you,” said one follower.

“I think this is a great idea! I have a privacy fence and four huskies so plants get destroyed by the dogs. Now I can hang them on the fence!” said another viewer.

“OK – this will be used by my pool this year! Thanks!” said a third audience member.
