What a wonderful way to destory perfectly good antique chairs…
Is it really that ‘eco’ ? What happens to the rest of the chair? Understandable if the chair-back is the only remaining functional part. Otherwise it’s a bit of a sharkfin soup
I think they are great! Agreed – on the antique chairs can be gorgeous in their own right, but there are a lot of not so great not antique chairs that seem to have been made into some fab coat hangers! Great idea.
hmmm, interesting concept, i’ll give it that, but besides wondering about the left over scraps, these will just mis-shapen all your clothes, and you’ll now be stuck steaming or ironing them. not to mention how much heavy & wider they are than regular hangers, and take up way more space. collectively a bunch of them would also weight down a clothes pole of any sort, shy of a steel or copper pipe or something. totally impractical.
