My mom has the most beautiful gardens and recently she came up a wonderful idea for a decorative stand for her garden hose. She sketched out her idea and my dad got to work making it! I love the finished project so much that I asked if she would share a little peek inside the process.
rust proof hose hanger from Yard Butler 
The idea was to create a decorative post with a shelf for hose attachments and a large hook/hanger for the hose. Everything would be painted in a bright color that would compliment the house and the garden.
My dad recycled some wood and a finial from an old fence and topped a pressure treated post with the decorative topper.
He added the shelf and hanger and painted everything red.
Last, he filled a hole with concrete and mounted the post.

Super idea! This hose stand is exactly what I am looking for since years! Many, many thanks to Mom Linda!
Wow! Great idea! This is like the perfect hose holder!
love it
At first quick glance it reminded me of a fire hydrant. Guess because it is red ;D. Too cute!!
Love this idea!! Pinned it too!
Thanks to you and your mom for sharing it...now I'm going to share it with my husband! :)
This is a great idea and I want to start working on one today. Thanks
Super cute! I totally want to make one now and paint it some funky colors. :)
Just beautiful! :)
I am SOOO DOING that!!! The nozzles are always on the ground somewhere near the hose and I have to step into the flowerbed to wrap the hose back up! This is awesome...thank you Mom and Daughter!!! and DAD....love the red!!
What a neat idea! I love how the structure itself becomes garden art. Functional and pretty. Way to go Mom!
I love it! Your Mom is as clever as she is sweet!
Had to share...when I saw the title for the post, I was expecting something with fashion (since it is Friday!) and thought, "She made a stand for pantyhose?" Yes, it has been one of THOSE days! Duh for me!!!
Happy weekend
Oh goodness! I love this! I might borrow the idea, if that is okay!
What a unique idea.
Exactly what I am looking for, something with a broad hanger so the kink-free hose won't kink, lol! Will pinterest and try to build this or similar, soon. Considered spike for post so I wouldn't have to bury in concrete. THANK YOU for sharing!
