I love my Ploys peg basket!
"I love my Ploys peg basket!Love it! I’ve been looking for a good peg basket for ages but am a bit picky about the materials it’s made of - didn’t want to add to plastic waste! This product was perfect - reusing what would otherwise be plastic waste - and so functional! Thanks Ploys for making it easier for us to look after our precious environment! And pegs!"
