Flip flop hangers

Found flip flops for $1 a pair today so I couldn't resist buying several colors. Then I discovered I needed a simple way to store them. Of course I checked out pins on pinterest first. Found something, but I made my own version.

I used pants wire hangers. I pulled the cardboard tube off first. Then bent the wire around into a circle. The pants hangers already have a hook at the end. To save space, I'm going to attempt to hook the hangers together to form a chain.

Breaking the white tube in half makes it easier to get it off the wire hanger.  
Then you will have the 2 little hooks already made for you to hang the flip flops.  

I bent the hook to keep the hangers together.  
The flip flops show better when you put the hook in front of the hanger.  

These are my daughters little flip flops.  Kid Size 10-11.

Tablecloths to curtains

Made a shower curtain from a 70 x 108 inches tablecloth today.  Just attached 1-1/2 inch Clip Rings to it and hung it on a separate shower rod from the plastic one.  So easy and NO sew!

Next projects are curtains from a tablecloth.  Probably use clip rings on it too, but I need to cut the tablecloth in half and sew the seems to make 2 curtains.  I'm also finally finishing a denim patchwork quilt top that I put together years ago.  Just need to add binding.  Pictures to come.

It's been a while since I added a blog entry.  I just tied it to my Facebook page.  Lets see if this works.  More fun updates to come this summer.  Lots of pins to try out.  :)
