Scarves UP!

I don't know a lot about Soccer, but I know that our Seattle Sounders rally cry with scarves and I keep hearing..."Scarves Up!"  Well, if you know me, you know I have an addiction...making things, to coffee, but most importantly, to scarves!  The first step is admitting it, right?!?  My addiction started in London on Notting Hill Road I was in a little shop full of silks from East India. Now, I order them in bulk from an online retailer (because you have to order a minimum, but they are WAY cheaper) and give them as gifts...and keep a few for myself. 

I have yearned for a system to keep them in order and neatly hung, because, more often than not, they are on the floor like this. 

You take the following:
-a hanger (the sturdier the better)
-shower curtain rings
-clothes pins (my addition)
-SCARVES!

How to:
1. Put the rings around the lower part of a clothes hanger. 

2. Thread your scarves through the rings!

3. I put clothes pins in between because as it was they all slid to the center and therefore were not hanging pretty and were all jumbled.

4. Hang up in the closet!

I finally found this idea on Pinterest, but I added a bit more structural stability.  The idea I used from Pinterest wasn't quite holding up under the weight of my vast array of scarves.
