save closet space

Have you seen those tandem hangers that have hooks in the front? You can hang one hanger from another, saving tremendous space in the closet, or enabling you to put outfits together to find easily. But the hangers are usually considerably more expensive than other plastic hangers, which in turn are of course more expensive than the wire hangers that seem to reproduce on their own.

The answer? Buy a cheap package of cable ties. You can find them at places like Dollar Tree and Wal-Mart for good prices. Make a loop around the neck of your ordinary hanger, and attach it to the shoulder of the hanger with a twist tie. Voila! You now have your own, much less expensive, tandem hangers.
