    fixed it!

    Like many it seems when using a plastic sweater sterilite type box to hold micies, the water bottle needs to be "rigged" to make it work. Check out what my husband in his mind, brilliantly, came up with. No more duct tape!!



    Jason screwed a small screw into the lid close to the edge, and then we used a hair tie although a rubber band was what we were looking for and jst wrapped it around the bottle and screw.

    AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
    Brillant!! He is absolutely brillant!
    I LOVE it when someone comes up with an outside the box solution!
    I am SO doing this as soon as I can find the right size drill bit. Pat your hubby on the back for me.

    Hah! I had duct tape on mine too. My idea wasn't as ingenious. I just took a wire hanger and bent it, lit the end so it would get hot and pushed it through the plastic. Ran it through the bottle, out the other side, and bent the ends to make it hang over!
