You know how the hanger on the towel always rips? I decided not to replace the ribbon this time and instead make nice personalised hangers for our bathroom :)

You Will Need (5 things)

  • Double Fold Bias Tape
  • Ribbons
  • Cheap towel Hangers
  • Pliers
  • Iron On Transfer (optional)

Steps (7 steps, 60 minutes)

  1. 1

    I bought these cheap hangers at a dollar store (or similar). They're ugly and not very useful - the plastic hanger comes off really easily.

  2. 2

    I pulled them all off :)

  3. 3

    And opened up the metal wings that were holding the hanger in place.

  4. 4

    20 cm bias tape + 20 cm white cotton ribbon, sewn together like so...

  5. 5

    ...and attached to the clip.

  6. 6

    Different colours for different family member (or just to make things prettier!)

  7. 7

    I used a kind of transfer paper that you can print on with a laser printer. In a graphics program (gimp) I wrote out my labels and flipped them horizontally. (Use a resolution of at least 300 pixels per inch, or your print will look pixelled.) After printing I cut out the labels and ironed them on my hangers.
    The labels are in Swedish :)
