Guess what I bought today? Socks! :p Five pairs, to be exact, just so I could get five more of these:
I'm kidding; I actually needed new socks! But I also wanted to expand on my previous post about full-body hangers. So today I'm making my own!
First I traced around one of Tonner's clear plastic hangers:
And then placed two of my homemade hangers over the "shoulders" and "hips" and traced around those:
I've found that 4" at the shoulders and 3" at the hips will keep most garments from slipping off.
I then folded the paper in half and cut out my pattern so it would be even on both sides:
Then I traced around the pattern on my clear plastic and cut out two pieces. I taped them together at the top, to hold the hook in place:
And finally, here it is hanging up! You can see how well it holds even a one-shoulder top and skirt:
As opposed to Tonner's full-body hanger:
:p
Here is my pattern, so you can make your own:
Hope this was useful!

I have been searching for this type of hangers for my blouse and tutu sets. I saw something similar at a flea market but they were made of metal. The lady who had them was also selling tutus with a blouse and would not share the info of where she got them from. Thanks. alsports2000@yahoo.com
