I bought 50 white wire coathangers for 9.99...lifechanger!!

Those flat hangers are great for getting lots of light tops on a rail. And all being the same look very organised and smart.
Well done.

Do you buy them - mine breed and twine themselves together.

Mine too! 😂

I’ve got a load I’ve been trying to give away before they add to land fill, no takers thus far.

Absolutely delighted...all my summer tops released from binsacks and boxes hanging compactly, neatly, visibly & totally accessable.

All I need to do now is -
a) reduce post-op belly to fit into them
b) find enough places to go to wear them
c) keep out of charity shops for a bit

Thank you! Made me laugh out loud

Well done Nanna...now how long will you keep it tidy like that
I always start out with good intentions.

I usually find that charity shops are glad of hangers.

Tried three Witzend no takers, but thanks.

I thought that when wire coathangers bred the result was paper clips.

Sainsburys and M n S take the black ones to recycle. I actually changed all mine to those slim felted ones so that clothes don't slip off. I have kept some wooden ones with bars across for hanging trousers over. I had a lot of wooden ones and a charity shop did take a set of 10 I had packaged nicely as they were clearly going to sell not like plastic ones.

I did the same getting them all out using one of those cheap easy to erect moving clothes hanger thingies

I admire your aims. Re belly that will never go slim cos of ops, to I do exercise,

heaves sigh

last night I was ruthless and went through the lot and put quite a lot in a charity bag 😢

but...in trying a lot of clothes on, I discovered some quite nice combinations that I hadn't thought of, ie these trousers with that top and so on. 😊

Threw all mine away. Hate the things and bought all wooden.

I cannot touch the felted ones. Makes me feel like a nail scraped down a chalkboard. I have lots of wooden hangers, but they take up more space and I use more for winter stuff. So what OP has done is great for light summer tops. The light summer tops seem to breed let alone the hangers. I could probably wear a different one a day for the whole of the summer.

I ought to do that and if I dont like one then wash and off to the charity shop while it is still summer.

I’m afraid I hate the wire ones, and will only just tolerate the felt ones because very lightweight summer shirts don’t drop off them, but generally, I hate all coathangers! I put them in nice neat stacks in the ironing room and next time I look it’s like they’ve had an orgy while my back was turned!!

Cossy 🤗 & spot on kittylester I've a few canoodling away in the bottom of the wardrobe too but it was the extreme slenderness (they're for dry cleaners really) and bright whiteness of the new ones that enticed me into parting with cash.

The felt ones are tricky getting stuff on and of but great for never sliding off and are minimally padded as regards no danger marks ....they are - very small space here - slim for modest wardrobes.

I think it's having plenty of hangers or whatever to make the job in hand easy.

I am decluttering and bought a pack of medium sized cardboard boxes from Amazon. So with a fresh roll of sellotape, scissors, some newspaper for wrapping, labels and a black marker pen I was able to make short work of packing up china and glass to pass onto the charity shop or to a relative who wanted some. The boxes were all the same size so have stacked into a neat tall pile by the front door

I expect OP whizzed through sorting and hanging up her tops and enjoyed doing it.

Amazon do some hangers that can hold six skirts/trousers - that cleared my wardrobe up quite a bit.

Many years ago when setting up holiday cottages t put in wooden coat hangers. These have gradually disappeared and replaced by an assortment of wire ones. So many arrive I have to remove some quite regularly

We give them away at the charity shop
Wooden, wire, felt the lot don’t need to spend £10

IKEA - good looking bamboo, double hangers,
also white ditto with serrated arms, silky blouses
will not slide off,
slender, neat,
large wooden coat hangers for winter coats
we have had a long time
many bear the names of various hotels, which have
been renamed or closed perhaps, bought from a
junk shop, cleaned up, sturdy, old fashioned,
Gentlemans greatcoat type which will will take a
great weight and width

TK Maxx and Homesense have lovely padded hangers

I’ve got the space saving hangers that each hold six items - dresses, tops, trousers. I like the light wooden hangers, but also bought stainless steel skirt/trouser hangers from Amazon. My wardrobe is much less cluttered as I’ve taken clothes that I haven’t worn for ages to the charity shop, where I volunteer.

I hate the wire hangers you used to get your dry cleaning back on and have ditched them all over the years.
I mainly like the plastic ones for lighter garments and wooden ones for coats and jackets.

Each to their own I'm still very pleased with my purchase as the white resin coating makes them feel a bit more luxurious than plain old wire and they are super thin...might order another lot.
