A Magnet for My Monstera Jungle

I lost my favorite pruning shears in a thicket of Pothos vines for three days last week. It happens.

My apartment is essentially a slow moving forest at this point. That is where the MagMaster comes in.

It is a magnetic clip that grips onto my belt or apron with the tenacity of a hungry sundew. Now my tools stay attached to me rather than disappearing into the damp soil of my indoor jungle.

It costs forty dollars on Amazon, which feels reasonable for saving me from digging through potting mix with my bare hands. The magnetic pull is surprisingly intense, almost enough to hold a small trowel or a pair of rusty garden snips without them rattling off.

It is strangely satisfying to hear that sharp click when I stow my gear. This piece of hardware is built in the USA and feels industrial, which is a nice contrast to the soft, chaotic sprawl of my climbing Philodendrons.

It is sturdy, reliable, and keeps me from losing my sanity whenever I need to trim a yellowing leaf. It is quiet utility at its finest.
