MacGyver Challenge: Hack Something With a Clothes Hanger

Hello, fellow Lifehackers! Time for another MacGyver Challenge. What's a MacGyver Challenge, you ask? Simple. We give you an object and you show us what cool things you can do with it. Our editors pick the best submissions and our favorite will win an autographed copy of the Lifehacker book!

Ready? Yes. Yes, you are.

This Week's MacGyver Challenge: Hack Something With a Clothes Hanger

The clothes hanger has long been a powerful tool in the DIYer's arsenal. After all, if you're using the wire variety, you basically have a long, flexible, metal wire. What can't you do with that? We've shown you how to turn a hanger into a smartphone car dock, use a hanger for tangle-free Christmas light storage, and even repurpose a hanger for flip-flop storage. Now, it's your turn. Share your best hack using a clothes hanger. Your hack can use other materials, of course, but the hanger should be the defining element. Send us pictures and a description of your hack and feel free to annotate your photos if you need to. And don't be afraid to get creative!
