How To: Jazz up your closet with a Recycled satin hangar

Here is a quick, inexpensive gift idea!!  True to her word, elinor is keeping us in blog post...so keep checking back to see what is happening!! (we promise to keep it updated...)

 

 
elinor has some of those romantic looking pink satin hangers.  They have fallen apart over the years, so she took one of them apart and using the batting that still clung to the wooden hanger she covered it with more batting and stitched it in place.  After that was complete she made a sleeve for the wire hook out of a tee shirt knit.  elinor keeps a collection of children’s tee shirts from the Good Will on hand for doll clothes and other embellishments.   She wrapped the hanger with scraps of fabric and lace and then added yoyos, buttons, and ribbons.  Doesn’t it look too fussy for words?  Now all you have to do is find one of those hangers and excessive trim and go to work.
