What to make a towel weight out of??
+4
I bought some curtain rings (with a clip on it) and want to fill the middle with something weighty (and not ugly!) to give it weight. Want to use it to hold our towels where we want them on the pontoon! Any ideas what I could use that would stay in the ring? Inside of the ring is probably about an inch and a half....TIA!

Rather than weight them why not clip them to a clothes line, or something run somewhere inside the skirting of the boat? Or purchase some table cloth weights sometimes found at the dollar tree.
I was thinking of tablecloth weights, too. Something nautical, like these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/111894774378?rmvSB=true
Smart thinking! You need something heavy enough, but not so heavy that it will hurt someone if it bumps someone in a breeze. Hmm . . . You could make cute little sandbags and tie to the rings? Maybe take a cruise through a hardware store and find something like washers to epoxy in the middle of the ring and then a glass bead in the middle of each washer for bling - maybe the same color as your pontoon - kinda steampunk flower look?
small fishing weights!
It would be beautiful to find inexpensive "crystals" used in jewelry making to fill the center of your rings. Attach them by stringing fishing line through the holes of the gems. Could do double duty....the reflection from crystals is supposedly bothersome to flies and keeps them away.
After looking on Pinterest and Google, I think fishing weights would be best -take curtain clip with you get size that gives you the weight you want - you can paint them etc
