Green Quickie: No Wire Hangers!

No I’m not just channeling Faye Dunaway in Mommie Dearest here.  In all seriousness I have a huge aversion to wire hangers in my closet. If you do too – one way to reuse your unwanted hangers  is to check if local dry cleaners could use them. Most dry cleaning services go through tons of wire hangers on a daily basis. They’ll likely be glad to be spared the cost of purchasing new ones!
