Organize Your Closet With A Simple Walmart Hanger Swap

For most people, the day begins with a trip to their closet to pick out clothes for the day. However, this simple ritual can be less than pleasant when you are greeted by mismatched hangers that vary in size, color, and material (such as plastic and metal hangers, which you should stop using immediately). If you're tired of seeing your closet in such a state, buying the best hangers will keep your closet perfectly organized.

Walmart's Better Homes & Gardens Non-Slip Velvet Hangers have notches built into the shoulders. This helps thin-straps or sleeveless items from falling loose. Moreover, the velvet material gives them a luxurious appearance, despite being affordable. Indeed, you can get a set of 30 hangers for $9.98 or snag a 100-count pack for $27.98. They also come in a number of colors, including black, beige, pink, gray, and green, so you can select the shade that best suits your preference. If you share a closet with someone, you can also select two different hanger colors to distinguish between your garments and theirs. And while you're on a closet improvement kick, now could also be a good time to give your closet another upgrade with a DIY system installation.

In addition to looking wonderful, these non-slip velvet hangers perform better than conventional plastic ones. Plastic hangers are notorious for allowing clothes to slip off of them — particularly items that have wide necks. Fortunately, these velvet-covered hangers will keep your clothes securely on the hangers, thanks to the textured external surface. Many customer reviews mention this benefit, with one writing, "They keep my clothes in place without sliding off too ... love these specifically for the clothes that tend to slip off and all my husband's work shirts. He has broad shoulders and these work so much better on his shirts than the plastic ones."

Moreover, these hangers won't entangle as easily as plastic ones due to their slim design and velvet-coating. Additionally, the attached hooks swivel around 360 degrees, making it easier to get your clothes hung up in a uniform direction, even if you put them on "the wrong way" initially. However, before you lose yourself in these design features, consider the product's cons, too. A few customers mention that the velvet comes off in a few spots and might settle as dust on your clothes. Some also mention that they had difficulty taking their clothes off the hanger due to its too strong grip. Still, the product boasts an almost 5-star average rating and most reviewers report having a positive experience, so you may consider them.
