What is this thing called?

Hey guys I'm planning a makeover of this "plant hanger thingy" that's been in this yard for decades but despite constant searching I can't figure out the name of it. I know they're common enough that they must have a name? Anyone know?

What you have is a six sided shepards hook. Ace Hardware, Truevalue, garden centers, and big box stores sell some.

every farm yard had these for hanging flower pots on. My neighbor has one of the old fashion on and it is made out of hay racks . Men would make them during the winter when there wasn't much to do

I have one of these in my yard. It's called a Hay Rack. We painted ours all white & hung the round planters on it, I changed plants/flowers for the seasons. Mine is 52 years old. It's real heavy, mine came from a farmer. It'not one from today. Mine has the 2 layers for planters. Sherry H :)

It's a Shepherd's Hook. Maybe you can sand it down, repaint it and use it for something...

You should paint with Rust Oleum. Keep it, newer ones aren't that nice. Valuable! Sherry H. :)

I was thinking different colors of Petunias in Summer and when they die back, replace with colorful Pansies. Sherry H. :)
