Absolutely delighted - all my summer tops released from binsacks & boxes are now hanging very compactly and totally accessible.

All I need to do now is -
A) lose post-op belly so I can fit into them
B) find enough places to go to wear even half
C) keep out of charity shops for a while

It’s always satisfying when a simple organising change makes such a noticeable difference. Having clothes properly hung and easy to access can make getting dressed much simpler, especially when seasonal items have been stored away for a while.

It sounds as though you've made good use of the available space, and having everything visible is often helpful for keeping track of what you already own. Hopefully you'll get plenty of opportunities to enjoy your summer wardrobe now that it's all organised and accessible.

Is this the second thread about white wire coat hangers as I commented on the last thread and this only has one comment on it
I m puzzled

I've noticed quite a few threads doing the same thing lately....puzzled why this is happening! Blame AI ;~)

Would never use wire coats hangers for my clothes. Padded ones are much better for keeping things in shape and not putting the shoulders out.

Well ,unless you are going to wear them all why not make one last trip to the charity shop and donate some. 50 outfits seem like an awful lot which I assume is in addition to what was already there. I recently had a big clear out of clothes which I had kept in boxes and bags and felt an overwhelming sense of freedom after they were gone.

You were robbed!
I can’t give them away, took a couple of bagfuls to the dump recently
. There are much better coat hangers you can buy.

Agree Mawsrosie, I don't like wire coat hangers either they make lumps in your clothes
