Pinterest Hack Not Really

Someone  had posted out  there this cute idea for a  scarf hanger.  This whole thing was made from 2 7 hook wall hangers and the flat black velvet like hanger the main info is posted on Dollar Store's website 
It is a great idea but we have no Dollar Stores here they have all turned into Dollar Tree, not the same.....have looked in at least 3 and not seen a single wall hook hanger,.  Well anyway we went Thrift store shopping like every Saturday and we ended up at a flea market we have not been to in a while.  Found a booth with their version of Dollar Store this box a $ and up is more like it but  I at leas found some hooks that can hang.  The were over the door.  They are a little larger and have 6 hooks still used the zip ties to secure them to my hanger I already had and for $2.00 I created my own camisole hanger those things take up way to much room.
 The only thing I had to do was to cut the over the door hanging part off they were over the last hook on each end.  Used my small bolt cutters for that you would never believe how handy those suckers come in.  I used them last week to cut down a piece of that wire closet shelving stuff you get at home depot, or me got at the thrift store fore less and $3.00 for 2 pieces one of which got cut down last week to make a new earring hanger....will post that in a few.  Anyway back to this project,

 Had the hanger and 3 zip ties one on either end taking in both hangers and the main hanger the one in the center to make sure this was secure for hanging the camisoles which you see below I have room for  more on back will amend that after getting it back in closet. One hanger and 12 camisoles could double up the hooks but for now this works for me hopefully it will work for you.
