An article for supporting a material that includes a hanger of rigid material, with the hanger including a first planar portion connected to an offset but parallel second planar portion by a planar shoulder disposed perpendicularly to both the first and second planar portions and further including at least one spike disposed upon a front surface of the first planar portion and at least one notch disposed upon a side surface of the second planer portion. A pair of hangers may be used to form a shelf-like support through connecting the pair of hangers with a wire or filament engaged within a notch, a barb, or both.
