Last year I bought 18" stainless steel plant stakes. They are about 1/16" wide, and have a curley Q at the end of them (sort of a bigger circle with a smaller circle inside that). I made plastic tags out of milk jugs, and punched a small hole in the top of the tag. Here's the problem: if it gets very windy, the tags move around that curly Q, so that the tags either end up upside down, or down at the bottom of the stake on the ground. Does any anyone have ideas of an easy way to fix this problem so the tags will stay put on the stake? I really welcome your ideas!!

Electrical tape? Fishing line?

Maybe just stick a twist-tie, or a piece of florist's wire or something similar, through the hole in the tag and wind it around the stake to hold it in place where you want it?

Thank you Tiffany and Sandy for sharing your ideas, but my husband came up with an easy and cheap solution. He bought me some clear plastic tubing at the hardware store for 29 cents a foot. I cut it into 3/16" inch pieces, and was able to slip one piece on the stake in front of the tag, and one in back of the tag to hold it in place--it's not even noticeable.

Great solution!!

Fabulous!
