Felt Covered Wire Hangers

These cute Felt Covered Wire Hangers from Heather Valentine would be great for a little girl's closet...or even your own closet!  Decorative hangers are easy to make and also make great gifts for the girl who has it all! 

Materials:

• Old wire hangers
• Tape
• Felt or polar fleece
• Needle & thread
   

Instructions:

1. Starting with two wire hangers, tape them together in a couple of places. This is just to keep them stable while you are covering them later.
   
   
    
2. Then cut a strip of felt 1″ wide by the length of your hanger. *Be sure to measure all along the outside of your hanger and around the curve. Mine measured 42″ but yours might be different.
    
3. Starting at the inside edge, wrap the felt around and blanket stitch in place. Continue to pinch and stitch all the way around. Clip end into a point, fold back and stitch the end in place. Bury your knot.
   
   
   
   
   
   
    
4. To create flowers, I cut circles from the felt. Then, I cute in a spiral pattern; leaving a round circle as the base.
   
   
    
5. Starting at the long end of spiral, wrap the strip around a pencil and hot glued in place.
    
6. Attach flower to hanger. You can attach with needle and thread or glue gun. Your choice.
