When we recently asked the question What Do You Do With Wire Hangers? The majority of readers answered that they recycle them. Designer Vanessa Marie Robinson recycled forty-seven dry cleaning hangers into a chair...

The forty-seven hangers are welded onto a steel frame. Vanessa's design portfolio can be found on Coroflot. Via: Core77.

I wonder serioulsy how comfortable this chair would be, but it is definitely an innovative way to use them. I don't think I would've ever thought to do that. I think my readers at http://www.greenyourdecor.com would love to hear about this. I'll let them be the judge.

It has 3 legs and the seat is only as wide as a hanger. I bet it creases your clothes when you sit too.

ORGANIZE WITH STYLE!
Hang your best tops or bottoms on one hanger.
If you suffer from a small closet and need more space and want to stay organized than check out the HankyTankyHanger.
