Antique tine cultivator decor- what can we do with it??

Julie
by Julie
We have a set of tines from an antique cultivator that we'd like to use in our farmhouse decor. We have seen many ideas on screwing it to a wall to hang items from but would like to do something more unique with it. Any suggestions??

    I'm not sure what your's look like but if it's got a deep curve to it (like the one I'm attaching), you could put the point side down and a cushion on top and make it a foot rest.

      The one pictured is exactly what I have. How would you keep the tines from gouging into the wood on the porch? Rubber tips? Humm.......another brainstorm, LOL!

    Yes, I would adhere some sort of cork, furniture slider, etc.

    If you hang upside down under a cabinet , it would make a great rack for wine glasses .

      Your idea is awesome especially since it came from a winery that was previously created/owned by a relative but the tines are too far apart and it's not open enough to place bottles of wine horizontally. :-( A couple of other ideas was to hang it as you suggested to hang dish towels or pot holders from or hang it in my garage/utility room to hang brooms, dusters and mops from. I appreciate your suggestion!

    I looked at it and thought: rolling pin rack. Two pins would fit horizontally in the top two sets of tines, and my Tupperware plastic roll up sheet to roll out pie crusts and bread dough on the bottom tines. Best wishes 😇
