I'm glad to know the IKEA hangers have worked so well for you. The BUMERANG hangers are indeed available in the U.S., but I haven't checked other countries.Jeri Danskyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01647833266269245240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4238401484560614586.post-27369364546418973812008-09-10T23:00:00.000-07:002008-09-10T23:00:00.000-07:00Jeri, I think you missed the best hangers by far -...Jeri, I think you missed the best hangers by far -- wooden hangers from IKEA in the BUMERANG series.<BR/><BR/>There are three types<BR/>1) traditional bent wood type used for hanging shirts, jackets, and other "tops". The wood is light in colour and is finished but not slippery so I can hang my silks. The cost of eight hangers is $5.99 Cnd. I find that using the wooden hangers prevents crushing of my clothes so I rarely have to iron. <BR/><BR/>2) there are wooden hangers with metal clips for hanging skirts, shorts, scarves. The cost is 99 cents each.<BR/><BR/>3) finally there are wooden hangers designed to secure pants at the hem. These are absolutely the best invention going. I use these to not only hang my pants but also to hang my table cloths and other linens, fabric lengths purchased for hobbies etc. The cost of the BUMERANG pants hanger is 99cents Cnd. The quality of the construction is unbelievable. I've never had anything slip through (a common occurrence on other hangers that I have tried).<BR/><BR/>My apologies to readers from other countries. I access the IKEA website frequently so it defaults to the Canadian site: www.ikea.ca<BR/><BR/>I believe that the American URL is www.ikea.com. Unfortunately I do not know whether these products are carried internationally you will need to check your country IKEA website. <BR/><BR/>Jeri great blog. Keep up the terrific work.<BR/><BR/>CalgaryCalgary7https://www.blogger.com/profile/11437795666974074089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4238401484560614586.post-13979614105144844142008-09-10T22:43:00.000-07:002008-09-10T22:43:00.000-07:00Hi Ejpk,There are indeed in-between size hangers. ...Hi Ejpk,<BR/><BR/>There are indeed in-between size hangers.

Although I haven't made a project out of researching and finding "in-between" hangers, I have looked in the hanger section in chain stores (Bed, Bath & Beyond, Target) and they have nothing. My daughter has a small dresser and a large closet with 2 rods, and I am not ready to commit to an expensive closet organizing system that might not fit her needs as she gets older. Her closet is large enough for all of her clothes, and she is able to hang easier than she could fold, so I do not want to resort to shelves for her clothes. This is why I am interested in the hangers. Any suggestions?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
