that sounds like what move of the girls do anyways. well, that is HD for you. They do have them. I saw them before she showed them to us....It was in the boxed items where you can buy one or contractor can buy box. It was near the pipe strap metal tape....I will look and get the exact name at my HD tomorrow...and the stock No. It is one block from me or I would travel 6 miles to Lowes if I really want something...good luck with what you did find. And I will feel really bad for spouting off it it was at Lowes, lol.

Goes to show who at Home Depot knows the store and who doesn't. They are 1/2 inch Bell Hangers, and are near the copper tubing in plumbing. I bought a package of 12 for 13.97 pretty close to 1.20 apiece. Pretty reasonable if you ask me, and easy to install. I don't like the look of pvc, also when the copper ages it will take on a lovely greenish hue. Good luck with your Flowers!

dulcimerduo - thanks so much for the info.

Thanks for the info. Sure would like to try this out. I kind of like idea of pvc because it can be spray painted to suit the flower. Like the copper too, but would have an issue getting it cut. Going to check out Lowes to see if they have this bell hanger.

Copper is easy to cut, you just need a Little Imp cutting tool. Their around 7 bucks at the HD store.. I've had one for years, great for loads of pipe cutting things.

Thanks all, glad you like the flowers.

Copper is not very hard to cut even with a
hacksaw. I have done it before. Just a little
more time than the PVC that's all. I have one
of those pipe cutters too, but didn't always
have it with me at the cabin in Indiana.

Got everything at Lowes & they even cut my copper pipe to the lengths that i needed. i did have to get a little firm with them to get them to cut the copper. But it all worked out OK. I like working with the Bell hangers, makes life easier.
