…ok, they should be all gone now.

This gift is a quick and easy DIY that anyone can do, and the results are, in my opinion, just darling.  Ready?  Here we go!

Step 1:  Go to Target and buy yourself a package of 5 nice hangers.  I chose wooden ones similar to these:

Step 2:  Gather up some ribbon, adhesive, cardstock, and pretty shimmery paper.

Step 3:  Create a tag for your hangers using Microsoft Word.

Step 4:  Print tag, cut tag, attach to cardstock, and cut to shape again.

Step 5:  Punch holes, thread ribbon through, tie a pretty bow, and you’re left with these lovelies:

 
Cute, no?  I wanted to make the girls nice hangers for their dresses (and, selfishly, I also think it will provide a cool photo op).  Here they are hanging up:

This project was really easy…and inexpensive!  I had all the materials on hand aside from the hangers, which I think were like maybe $3 for the pack?  I love the way they turned out!  [Side note:  In these pictures, the ribbon looks really yellow, but it’s actual almost an exact match to the gold color of the girls’ dresses!]  Now, to find a hanger appropriate for my dress…
