A Slippery Storage Solution Do you love to accessorize with chiffon scarves - But have a difficult time storing them? I've got a storage solution for those slippery scarves. I had tried folding them and putting them in a drawer, but then you tend to forget about them, and when you take out one you tend to mess up the others. I tried just hanging the scarves over the coathanger. But even though they are very light they still tended to slip to one side or the other. While chatting with a friend she mentioned her mom had added loops to a coathanger to make a great storage area for scarves. And that little bell went off inside my head, like it probably does in yours when you hear a good idea. And a voice said to me, "Hey, you can do that too!" So I did! I took one of my braided covered coathangers and stitched small loops on the bottom. This time I used some plastic curtain rings that I had in my craft stash. But you could use whatever works for you or even some ribbon loops.
Now the scarves can be displayed in a colourful way and it is so easy to slip of the one you want. I think this would make a great little gift, along with a scarf or two.
I have started to add some loops onto the bottom of a covered coathanger I have. I also think that on this type of hanger you could add the loops over the body of the hanger.
Hm-m-m now what else could be
stored on these loops besides scarves?
Make some braided coathangers. Make some crochet covered coathangers. Make some covered coathangers using material and batting.
