WFMW



Do you ever have trouble with clothes, especially jackets and coats, sliding off their plastic hangers and ending up in a pile on the bottom of the closet? Drives.me.nuts! Here's what a did to fix the problem.

Where do you buy that? What exactly is it called?
I have this exact problem and usually have to zip or button all my jackets just to keep them from landing on the floor.

Fantastic idea - I would have never thought of that. Thanks for sharing!

Note to other comment posters: that is self-adhesive first-aid bandage tape... should be available wherever Ace Bandages are sold. I know Nexcare makes some.

Clever, clever, clever! What a great idea to use on kids clothes hangers!!! It think I pick up more shirts and dresses off of the floor of my childrens closets than I do anything else in the house. Thanks for the tip!

Excellent idea! My hubby likes wood hangers and it's the same story. I'm gonna try this!

This is a problem that we have had constantly with clothes in our closet!
I would love to know exactly what this is and where you purchased it!

Great idea! Darn! If I'd only thought of it when I was having daily blood draws... I threw away a TON of the stuff.
