| I use velvet hangers for shirts/dresses and metal ones for pants |

| Wood for heavy items, plastic for hanging laundry that shouldn't be dried, and velvet for the rest. |

| I always make sure to have at least one wire hanger. |

The thin velvet ones break too easily to use for everything but they're good for slippery fabric or wide neck openings.
I like plastic hangers for regular clothes and keep wooden ones in the coat closet. |

Do you run a dry cleaning service? |

| Slim, black velvet from Sam’s Club. I bought 25 boxes for every closet. I use pants hangers from The Container Store. I have coat/suit hangers from The Great Indoors |

I hate the thin velvet ones - they break to easily! I use ones like these (sorry for the long link), that are sturdy

| NP. Where are you buying your velvet hangers? I went online to purchase some this weekend and they all (including The Container Store) had terrible reviews due to the velvet rubbing off on clothes and some said the velvet actually stained their clothes. Based on the reviews, this seems to be a newer problem, so maybe the older ones were fine, but has anyone bought nice ones recently and where did you find them? |

I have skinny purple velvet ones that I think were purchased at the Container Store. And then I have about half a dozen white plastic ones with two clips on each that I think my mom got me before college in 1994.
But before you buy anything, go through your closet and get rid of everything you can. |
