Have you ever had an article of clothing that has gone missing for MONTHS? Like, you cannot think of one more reasonable place to look for that favorite dress. It may have very well vanished. You feel like you’ve gone insane. And after a while, you stop looking. You hope you might cross paths with it again some day and that time would help you forget about how amazing you looked in the missing dress.
I’ve had this happen, and I’m here to say that it was not my fault! And it probably wasn’t your fault either!

And we have no more excuses for losing our favorite hanging clothes in such a tragic way.
Is there much in life that pipe cleaners can’t solve? I mean, yes, but they sure can solve a lot! I am now designating at least ten of my hangers to be my dependable dress holders–forevermore. Pipe cleaners, you have found your new calling in life.
Hang on, friends! 😉
