Making a plush, fabric-covered hanger for your closet! #DIY #CraftProject

Please scroll down to the bullets for additional relevant tutorial videos.

There’s no pattern for today’s craft project, and it’s not a doll-sized hanger this time, just a regular hanger for you to put your clothes on, in your own closet.

I made my Parisian plush hangers as a birthday gift for my sister-in-law, Cindy Wood, who deeply appreciated the gift.

A plush hanger is displayed on a turquoise blue and white background. The hanger has a yellow fabric hook, a white ribbon at the base of the hook, and the plush body of the hanger consists of Paris-themed fabric filled with fiber fill.

But I have to say that in the video I mentioned 1-inch double-fold bias tape. Looking through my stash of bias tape, though, that may have been 7/8 inch double-fold bias tape. I no longer have the little wrapper that tells me what size it is!
