You know those pants hangers that are usually useless? Well if you just break off the end clips you have yourself some easy and cheap chip clips! They work awesome and honestly I reach for them over the ones I paid for!
Make Your Own Easy Chip Clip!

This is one of the best recycling ideas I have read in a while I just had to pin this!!
I can’t even count how many of those plastic hangers I have thrown in the recycle bins or told the stores to keep them.
Plus e lose those clips all the time or the grandkids break them, because they are cheap plastic! I have actually started wrapping rubber bands around my chip bags. This idea will save me from some of those hurtful rubbing bands from snapping back! Ouch!
Thanks for sharing!

Good grief…I bet I have thrown away a 100 of these hangers over the years. Now I know!

Even though I have seen it many times before, I never put one + one together and thought to get a hanger out of the closet and use it as a chip clip. But I thank you for the nice idea.
