It wasn't until recently that I found out how much Joan Crawford hated wire hangers, lol! I really, really dislike them, too.

Interesting, do not have many of these around but there are certainly some uses for them whenever they are retired from use. Whatever ones that still lurk around have t-shirts hanging on them.

Another use for a stretched out coat hanger is getting down into the hose of your vacuum cleaner to remove that ball of stuff ...just make sure to bend/smoosh the hook part of the hanger so it does not make a hole in your tube but will still hook the stuff jammed in there so you can pull it out. Done!
