It's so frustrating to open your closet door and find some of your favorite tops and dresses laying the floor. What's the point of laundry, amirite?!

We love this trick to prevent the ever-growing floor pile and keep spaghetti strap dresses and delicate tanks on the hanger once and for all.

Transform even the most flimsy hangers (like those from the dry cleaners) into functional closet organizers with just a flick of the wrist. The glue's rubbery texture provides just enough grip to keep straps in place. And remember: This trick works on wood, wire and plastic hangers alike.
