Door hanger for my SIL for christmas... she is 17 and her room is a complete pigstye and she always leaves dirty plates with mouldy food etc all over her room. The common said thing in the house is "Hope you've had your jabs before you go in there"

I messed up my O but I don't think it looks too bad really lol

Great hanger Rusty.
If you need any warning signs in the future, have a look at this site.
I used it for a warning sign for my 'toilet roll cake' !!! Although it wouldnt allow me to type in the text that I wanted, I just copied and pasted to powerpoint and then made the changes.

rusty - that's brilliant !!!:T Beginning to wish I'd done one of them.

Well, got bit further...........oh I do fiddle about............:rotfl: Decided on stripey one for grandson - eventually got the ribbons to tie ok (its a sort of rust/cream/beige/black stripey paper so I used rust and cream ribbon.
Got some letters from the craft shop in those colours but couldn't make out 'busy' in same colour so thats mixed colours (OH's idea !-I'm not sure) and put nuts and blts men piccys -one is sat at computer, other one is taking a hammer to it (know the feeling...........lol) On the other side I've put his name..........managed to get all the same colours for that and stuck them on a length of rust colour ribbon as the letters were cream and wouldn't have stood out very well.Looks quite smart -now not sure what to put on the side where his name is...........piccy's of some sort but don't know what -might have to delve into the 'nuts and bolts men' site again.................lol

I'm that thrilled with them - rainmac - thankyou -I'd never have done them if you hadn't started it off.........I know I cursed (oh how I cursed) but not any more................ll loving it............and got another three to finish and one I aint even started on yet for baby grandson.................:j

savvy

Great hanger Rusty, I'd thought of doing one like that but have gone for a cammo one instead;)

Wow savvy, what did you buy??? I buy Lizzie Kate cross stitch charts from ebay sellers in the US as it's cheaper than buying them in the UK, even with delivery.

Welllllll, you know those rub ons you posted? I bought 2 of the large size, 2 of the medium size and 5 of the small size in different colours, a rub on tool, some lacing brads, metal index tabs, 5 different Daisy Bucket small stick on stamps, a set of 8 Tia Bennett Doodle Baby stick on stamps and a sheet of Cloud9design Sorbet Sparkle cardstock......................am now a massive fan of Cloud9design!

I looked at UK prices and went for the average price of things (only looked up stuff quickly mind), the total came to £52.69. Including shipping (which looked quite high) I paid £28.39.

Thanks guys ... I forgot to put the skull and crossbones on it ... might have a dabble later on when the children are in bed. Don't know how it will look though so will post pics later on

RustyFlange

Decided to use the skull and crossbones on the back ... what do you think? It's completely finished now and I am happy with it so away in the cupboard it is going

apologies for the poor photos but the scrapbook paper is BRIGHT yellow now dull and lifeless like it looks!

Rainmac can I ask for some help please, how do you do your little pouches on the back of your hangers?

mary43

Rusty - that looks brilliant !:T

Think rainmac would be better at telling you about pouches/pockets........I've put one on in fabric and another with that transparent paper (don't know what its called -forgot!) but I'm useless at trying to explain how to do things

I've only ever done them using vellum paper. Fold paper in half with the join at the back so you won't see it once it's stuck on the hanger. I use double sided tape to stick it and then fold up the bottom about 1cm and use double sided tape to stick that.

Hope these help to explain...

Make folds...



Stick 'seam' together with double sided tape...



Fold up a piece at the bottom and stick...



Turn over and voila, you should have a little pocket!

HTH, let me know if it doesn't

Errr, completely forgot to say please ignore the pen marks all over the desk, the little man has gone a bit mad with the biro while my back was turned for 10 seconds...
