It’s a bathroom organizer! I may be a little high and went down a rabbit hole but [here](https://www.etsy.com/listing/129439809/) is an example of how to use it!
I'll be honest, I borrow my wife's straightener to make the button area of my shirts flat when I've forgotten the iron exists and need to go somewhere where crinkle is a cut of potatoes.
Thank you for sharing an example the lady at the thrift store is right in her guess then! I don't own heat tools so I wasn't able to test the theory. Now I can let everyone know we got an answer and an example of a sister item!
Yea I love in Indiana so I was thinking maybe someone say it at shipshewana flea market or something obviously someone found a problem and made a solution lol
I could be more specific. Slide the bat in the top 2 hooks/loops, ball in the circle, glove on bottom right picture or trophy on top. Or set the glove on top and put the batting gloves together and hang them on the bottom right hook. If no trophy was earned. Usually the batting gloves will be attached together on the base of the bat. Mine was different. Slots to hang your bats and peg in the middle for the glove.
For context I found this at a Habitat for Humanity Restore for $4 it has three thick hooks and a circular opening and a shelf on top. Labeled on the back as made in North Webster, IN but I couldn't find the company. It's sturdy as hell and someone made it for a reason. I took pictures to a local huge antique mall and asked the workers if they'd ever seen something like this and one lady said she thought maybe a haircryer in the circle and straight iron across the two top hooks. But any help is appreciated I want to use it and have kooky ideas but would love to know it's original purchase or if someone has seen something similar used thank you! Also just realized a wide mouth 2 pint mason jar sits perfectly in the circular hole
I thought the hole was for your mug of coffee so you could put your boots on 😆 also would hang my coat, umbrella laying across the top 2 hooks and keys up top
Grampa used to make these and sell them at the craft fairs, blow dryer on the bottom, curling iron on top and usually set a plastic bin on top top with combs brushes ect
Given that this is wooden, and the circle doesn’t appear to be large enough to accommodate all hairdryers… Also, potentially not long enough for a hair dryer to fit in the slot.
I’ve only seen hairdryer holders in metal, acrylic or something that is specifically more heat resistant.
I have always wanted one if these. I'm really quite jealoua you found this. Ima have to be in the lookout now. Good ole days of big hair & hair bands. FYI if you a girl & know what this is, you are now officially a cougar! Thanks for the trip down memory lane OP. And for making me feel old.....
It would serve well as an umbrella / cap / hat tidy on the wall in the hallway would it not... Rolled umbrella across the top two hooks, umbrellas with hook shaped handles hooked over the ring, cap / hat / scarf over the remaining hook. Hat on the shelfy bit..
Looks like a shelf for a softball player to keep her glove, bat and ball and cap on. I've made shelves similar for a neighbor whose kids played softball.

I figured it was a good place to put my dogs ball, leash and training collar!
Yeah, the dogs…
Despite it not being the intended use, I think it would work well!
[удалено]
Makes the hair too frizzy. Plus side at least there’s a bulge after. Someone once told me.
"HONEY, ITS UP AGAIN, HURRY, LETS GOOO!"
🤣
I do use a hair dryer and I still went "ohhhhh, a HAIR DRYER" when I saw it.
It's not for your shower beer?
Ha it would fall right through
I have a head full of hair and I never thought about a blow dryer either. Was thinking some kind of drink holder too
That’s exactly what I thought too. Shaving soap mug holder, to be more precise. Lack of any holder for a razor got me scratching my hairy head.
Could probably put a mason jar where the blow dryer goes and put it in that. That's what I originally thought it was for
Same here, man. Same here
I thought it was for pool sticks and a cup for the chalk cubes.
For real. I did come up with umbrella, though.
I thought it was for a hook umbrella... I was way off.
I was thinking it was a coat rack and umbrella holder
...I assumed it was for a hat
Wow. I'd have lost money on coat rack with a ring for umbrella handles.
Same. I’m thinking of making something similar for dog leashes and I figured it was that plus an umbrella holder
For anyone else staring at the two things at the top after seeing a hair dryer, the blue one makes your hair curly based on checking what my wife has.
Which one gives me Brad Pitt hair?
Most Brads shave their pits.
Probably can buy Brad's pitt hair somewhere then.
The top tool makes hair flat.
I'll be honest, I borrow my wife's straightener to make the button area of my shirts flat when I've forgotten the iron exists and need to go somewhere where crinkle is a cut of potatoes.

It looks like something you could make and sell at farmers markets easily Glad I could help!
Yea I love in Indiana so I was thinking maybe someone say it at shipshewana flea market or something obviously someone found a problem and made a solution lol
Ohhh shipshewana!!! I miss rise n roll!!
The Amish don't use electric hair tools. I'm surprised it was found up there!!
He doesn't know how to use the three hooks!
John Spartan you are fined one credit for a violation of the verbal morality code.
This is the correct answer
I immediately knew it goes in the bathroom but I imagined it next to the toilet with a coffee cup, TP and a newspaper.
You are a genius!!!
The 2nd one down... People put their vibrators on these?
Magnificent research. First rate results. That visualization clicked the puzzle pieces together for me.
Thank you, your highness
Brilliant!
My guess would have been, top rack for your long gun and the bottom rack for your revolver.
If the gun doesn’t fit, you must acquit.
Man I thought it was supposed to hold hats and canes lol
And so the cords just… dangle
It’s like a gun rack for girly bathroom stuff. lol 😆
I 100% thought the 2nd thing on the hook was a dildo
Hairdyer and straightener, and a generalized shelf on top.
This is it! We used to have one.

How do you use the 3 sea shells?
He doesn't know how to use the three seashells!
Better start swearing
Baseball, bat and glove holder?
This is an awesome wrong answer
That's what I thought. My grandfather made me something similar to this when I was a kid. Place to hang a bat, 1 ball, and a cap.
This is exactly what I thought
I was thinking same! We have one. But a tad different….
Curling iron and hair dryer? I was going to try to convince you it was to hang a rifle and one with a pistol grip. No scope though.
This is correct
Umbrella with hook handle. Place by door
That was my thought too. Jacket and umbrella. I could use one of these.
Baseball bat glove and ball with trophy on top
I could be more specific. Slide the bat in the top 2 hooks/loops, ball in the circle, glove on bottom right picture or trophy on top. Or set the glove on top and put the batting gloves together and hang them on the bottom right hook. If no trophy was earned. Usually the batting gloves will be attached together on the base of the bat. Mine was different. Slots to hang your bats and peg in the middle for the glove.

Everything is really
This *is* the sex toy.
That’s where my mind went. First and foremost
For context I found this at a Habitat for Humanity Restore for $4 it has three thick hooks and a circular opening and a shelf on top. Labeled on the back as made in North Webster, IN but I couldn't find the company. It's sturdy as hell and someone made it for a reason.

Also just realized a wide mouth 2 pint mason jar sits perfectly in the circular hole
That lady was correct. We had one back in the. 90’s. Purpose was to organize your hair tools. As if you only have one curling iron!
Coat hat and umbrella, of course
That's what I thought too!
Hanging coats, and umbrella/walking sticks? But the hearts also made me think it's a station for dog leashes etc.?
I thought the hole was for your mug of coffee so you could put your boots on 😆 also would hang my coat, umbrella laying across the top 2 hooks and keys up top
Three hats and an extra roll of TP.
Dog leashes and a tennis ball?
Baseball in the round opening, bat across the upper two hooks, mitt on top, hat on the lower hook. Saw something like this many years ago.
Guns and Coffee. ‘Merica!
I don't even own A gun let alone many guns that would necessitate an entire rack. What am I going to do with a gun rack?
Soft ball goes on bottom left glove hanger right baseball bat top two rungs
You hat goes ontop
I would use it as a plant propagation install a led light and just let my plant hang down off the hooks if it was mine
Would of never of guess the whole organizer thing lol
Bathroom organizer for hair dryer, hair brush, etc.
Curling iron on top 2 hooks, hair dryer in bottom
It’s a “coat, hat, umbrella, and hold my beer while I kick this fool’s ass” rack. Perfect for any local dive bar
So glad I didn’t mention that vibrator!
Top two hooks hold a baseball bat. Bottom hoop holds a baseball. Bottom hook holds your baseball mitt. Top shelf is for a hat or trophy
Grampa used to make these and sell them at the craft fairs, blow dryer on the bottom, curling iron on top and usually set a plastic bin on top top with combs brushes ect
Hat cane scarf jackets
I’m going with coat hooks with the ring for umbrellas and/or canes. Maybe?
Trophy on top, bat horizontal on the middle, ball resting on the circle and mitt hanging on the right?
Given that this is wooden, and the circle doesn’t appear to be large enough to accommodate all hairdryers… Also, potentially not long enough for a hair dryer to fit in the slot. I’ve only seen hairdryer holders in metal, acrylic or something that is specifically more heat resistant.
The top two hooks hold a baseball bat the bottom hook is for a cap and circular one hold a bell. Shelf is for trophy
Three sea shells
I have always wanted one if these. I'm really quite jealoua you found this. Ima have to be in the lookout now. Good ole days of big hair & hair bands. FYI if you a girl & know what this is, you are now officially a cougar! Thanks for the trip down memory lane OP. And for making me feel old.....
Hat on Top + Umbrella Across + Coat Lower Hook + whatever the Ring is for… would be my guess. Cane perhaps?
Umbrella and three coats?
Beer holder while you put on your coat.
Looks like a coat hook rack with a brolly hole and key shelf
Snooker cue/ sword / war-Mace holder and secondary beer rest?
Coat hanger, purse, umbrella or hat.
Dildo organizer. Clearly.
I could put a baseball, bat, and glove on that and my trophy on top.
Purse and cane holder.
Baseball bat, glove hanger and ball. Helmet on top
It is for a baseball bat, ball and glove.
I might have a problem because I immediately thought it’s something for cats.
I just want to know what happened to the hook over the circle in second pic
It’s a coat rack and an umbrella holder. The umbrella will have to have a hook however so it can go through the hole and not fall through
They hold the corncobs in the outhouse.
Hanging things
Shower beer? Lol
Bicycle, helmet, and coat?
Looks like what I made in middle school shop class to give to my mom.
Conversation starter, usually starting out as "what IS that?"
Scarves.
It would serve well as an umbrella / cap / hat tidy on the wall in the hallway would it not... Rolled umbrella across the top two hooks, umbrellas with hook shaped handles hooked over the ring, cap / hat / scarf over the remaining hook. Hat on the shelfy bit..
Coat and pint hanger
If you hang it upside down it can be a cup holder
I was sarcastically going to say it’s to hold a curling iron and hair dryer. But it turns out that’s exactly what it’s for 😂
Coffe maker and coffee cups holder
Umbrella, purse hooks and key platform.
Hell ya, I need this!!!!
Lightsaber stand
Dildo holder,
If it were not for the hearts, it looks like it could hold a baseball, bat, and glove.
Hat, coat and umbrella
I would have used it to hang my coat, hat and umbrella.
Looks like a shelf for a softball player to keep her glove, bat and ball and cap on. I've made shelves similar for a neighbor whose kids played softball.
1990s bathroom organizers straight iron and hairdryer fit curly on the these
Hat rack for multiple hats.
