Got old silverware? Real Simple has a way to give old, mismatched flatware-or vintage finds at a flea market-a new purpose: Make wall hooks.

The three-step process couldn't be easier: Use a titanium or cobalt drill bit to bore a small hole into the handle of your utensil, bend it into a U-shape, and then attach your brand-new hook to the wall with a hammer and a nail. We think some tarnish adds a certain character to the hardware, but if you prefer your wall hooks pristine, follow our earlier instructions on getting a natural shine. ::Real Simple
