Locks of love

Locks of love are the padlocks fixed by loving couples, on to a fence or a pole or metallic chain/string alongside some wall etc at a public place, to symbolize their eternal love. A couple would hang a padlock after inscribing their name or initials on it and throw the key away so that their love is locked forever. Some couple use two inter-twined locks, each lock bearing their name/initials. Besides lovers, often family members and close friends also put such locks at these places, to lock their relationship forever.

Tip
Try attaching extra hooks to your shower rod so that you it can hold a brush or act as a shower caddy or for bath toys. Another example of creating more storage space, while also organizing is how you can mount hooks on a wall, and hang different colored baskets from those hooks. Each basket could be assigned to a different member of the home, and that is where they keep their bath toiletries
