Here’s a heap of antique hangers, just a tiny few of my collection, just the ones which are especially cool. Today I hit a particular charity thrift shop in downtown Napa, and scored six old wooden hangers for 25 cents … for the whole bunch. Sometimes, they are a little more, usually a quarter each, or a quarter for 3, but this was the best deal yet !
A very nice collection indeed, most of which are California cleaners, but a few which even are from the Old Town Napa…
A Ravelry Alert, for sure… this one says “Owl Cleaners” , with two little stamped owl motifs. How adorable.
“Novelty Dye Works” of Los Angeles !
Occasionally I will score a very frilly handworked one. This one I’m afraid I have put the wear on…
Killer finds, these very old style clamping hangers…
… and my all-time favorite, the “quite-a lot-of-wood” hanger, which I usually hang only the special things in my closet.
Look closely ~my ‘other’ thrift obsession~ anything with the label “Irish Linen”
Jenjoyce Design 
How on earth do you find Irish Linen without paying a fortune? Like the coat hangers….those are cool!
Oh, that Irish Linen is wonderful stuff, and makes me so happy ! I still, will only pay a few dollars for the linen shirts, at the Goodwill store, or some other charity thrift store. I stay out of expensive consignment shops altogether. A good find is only as good as it was nearly free. The thrill is in the ‘steal’. 🙂
Ditto on nearly free sentiment. Otherwise, no thrill, if you have to pay near retail pricing 😀 Our Goodwill store has become one of the latter which is somewhat disappointing.
Amazing collection!!! I am totally mesmerized by the cleaner ones. Now,I must keep my eyes open when I’m at thrift stores LOL
You just have to scour the good places… and the odds are you’ll find antiques.
