Clothes Slip No More

I've had a break through. Well some lady on Pinterest had a break through and I embraced her genius-ness.

Don't you hate when your clothes slip off those plastic hangers? Yeah, me too. But who would've thought hot glue could fix your problems??


What you need:
-the stubborn, slippery hangers
-a hot glue gun


Your objective: to make a zig zag pattern with the hot glue down the hanger



BAM!


Why this works?
The hot glue zig-zags create texture... the bumps prevent the clothes from falling off. And for those strappy tanks- the straps have to slide over each little grove to fall off...yeah, right!

PROOF!

I held these hangers at strong angles and took photos to show you that doing this little DIY will make a dramatic difference in how much better your clothes stay on the hangers. You can also do this on wire hangers, but these plastic ones are typically the pesky ones for me! Changed my life!

Spring Cleaning!

Spring has sprung early this year! Perfect for a winter-hating gal like myself!


The best thing about spring cleaning for me is re-discovering all the presh clothing items I had pushed to the back of my closet and forgot about! I always forget about my skirts. Since they are short, they don't hang down.. so I never see them :( But no fear! They have made their way back into my wardrobe! 


I don't know about y'all but I have the biggest issue with my necklaces, long and short, tangling themselves up! ... Gathering material I've collected due to my southern lifestyle, I fixed my awful problem.. :) I can totally hook anyone up if they dig my idea!






Also, another thing that has made me feel super cool... I learned how to curl my hair with a straighter!! Exciting, yes! For real, double yes!! Recently, my Enzo Miliano Clipless Curling Iron died. For some reason, my curly hair refuses to curl with a normal curling iron, so the clipless curling wand is the BOMB! Since I am cheap and refuse to buy another from money out of my own pocket, I began the search for another technique. Kate, from http://www.thesmallthingsblog.com, helped me end my quest! Huge success!!
Look of curls differ slightly.. probably because of cuts & textures! 
The link about will direct you to Kate's tutorial on how to curl your hair with a flat iron!



Another big excitement, my sissy Regan found & bought her perfect prom dress! May 5th, Patrick & Regan will go to ERHS' 2012 PROM! Super exciting! Proud of ya twinny! (:


Enjoy this picturesque Carolina weather!
