How To Display T-shirts Without Damaging Them

How do you hang thin, long-sleeve women's shirts without damaging them?

I'm pretty much the most unorganized person ever, and I keep buying shirts that look like ones I already have. Or just straight-up losing clothes.

My solution is to start hanging everything up, so all my shirts will be on display.

The only problem is that a lot of these shirts can easily be damaged by a hanger in the long-term in the shoulder/arm region - because many are thin material made of rayon, spandex, cotton, that sort of thing.

Are there any secrets? Tips? Types of hangers that are meant for this sort of thing?

I feel like this is possible, since you always see nice clothes hanging in nice stores.

How can I hang up a t shirt on my wall without putting holes in the wall?

I would open up the regular desktop stapler and staple it to the wall. (tiny holes). OR if you never open your blinds or drapes, then hang it from them. You could also hang it from a hanger that you bend and it hooks over the moulding above your closet doors, windows, entry door. One of those areas has some moulding that you could hang something from. Perhaps your parents won't mind a little nail in the top of the moulding. Then use a chain or ribbon down to the hanger, so that it is displayed at the correct height. You could drape the shirt over a picture that you already have mounted on the wall. Hang the shirt from a pole lamp. Put the shirt over a chair, so it looks like a chair cover. Put the shirt over a really large pillow and put it on your bed. (I'm out of ideas now).

wow....thumbs down...and I did really try to come up with a solution to display your shirt.

How to display t-shirts without damaging them?

Because you do not want anything to stain the shirt fabric, suggest using acrylic rods, round or square shapes which are either clear or in bright colors.

Place some of the shirts on the rod, running the length through the sleeves of each shirt so they drape on the rod, the artwork and graphics clearly visible. Use metal hooks inserted across the display wall, using the wall studs for stability. The ehow link below is an example which shows how to use a rod to hang a kimono on the wall, turning clothing into art.

You could also use large plastic hangers and simply place a line of hooks either up and down or across the display wall, hanging one hanger on each hook to create a wall of tee shirts. For those placed up and down, use small hooks and let the tail of the above tee shirt over lap the hook and hanger of the lower tee shirt, making a wave of shirts with only the top hook and hanger visible.

Why do dress shirts come with so much packaging?

Stephanie’s answer is probably right, but with all the folds, tissue, cardboard and pins, it's a pain in the neck, isn't it?It does keep the shirt neat for display, but no one could wear it straight from the package with all those folds starched into it.Come to think of it, why are men's shirts sold folded like this and not on hangers like women's shirts? Do dry cleaners still offer folded shirts? Did anyone ever order them this way except for traveling?Mysteries!

I need ideas for something to do with sentimental t-shirts.?

My son played T-ball and Little League baseball from the time he was 6; he is now in high school. I would like some project ideas for what I could do with his old team shirts, they have the team names on the front, and his last name and player number on the back. Maybe a quilt or pillows? I would love your suggestions and any links. Thanks!

Double Sided Poster Display?

Hi... I've recently purchased 20 double sided posters. They're all amazing and I want to display both sides of them at the same time. I was thinking about using a hinge strip and then nailing the strip into the wall. The idea is to be able to flip them over and see the back without damaging the poster in any way. I was hoping someone could give me any other ideas on how to display them. Your ideas will be most appreciated. Thanks in advance!! :)

BTW: I'm only 14, so no -- I'm not rich nor am I willing to pay more than I have to to put up a couple of posters in my room

Thanks again for all your help! Remember: best answer gets 10 points :D

Hiding breasts to convincingly display a male character in theater/movies?

THis question is kind of embarrassing so sorry...
i'm in theater and acting and one of my parts is to play an androgynous sort of character, leaning toward the male side. However....I have 36C cup breasts... is there anyway i can possibly hide these things? i know my best bet is to wear a big sweater and T shirt but in the script i have to wear a tuxedo-like suit for one part. Could i possibly tape them down or anything? Any bra tips? Obviously I don't want anything permanently done.

Can I call a print (photography) limited edition if it was printed on T-shirts before (with slight design changes like adding text over it)?

As applied to art objects, “limited edition” explicitly promises that there will not be many copies of a print but also implicitly promises that there will be some number of them.A prior run on T-shirts won’t affect the salability of prints unless someone sees a T-shirt as a substitute for a print (and if that’s the case, you’re probably in Key West, everyone is drunk, and no one will remember why they bought what). And making T-shirts first does not preclude you from calling the prints a “limited edition.” Editions are usually limited to the time of creation and a particular output medium, and it’s been the case that doing another run from a frame has been justified a new “edition” with even the slightest change in size or how it is printed (optical, inkjet, dye-sub, etc.).As to the value of calling a print a “limited edition” in photography, it works within a certain collector and price range bandwidth because it suggests scarcity, but serious, rich, and/or snobbish collectors are often turned off by seeing explicit statements that there are other copies or, worse, that there is a large number of them.Photography is deprecated as a mass-production art form, and by suggesting there is an “edition,” you’re arguably playing into that. The reality is that of any given Ansel Adams negative, for example, there are likely far more prints than you will ever sell from any single exposure you make.

Why do people put a t-shirt in a rolled up window when their car is broken down on the roadside?

i've never seen this done where i grew up (indiana), but in other parts of the country (especially the south) this seems to be quite common. what is the message conveyed by hanging a shirt in the window of your broken down car? and what is the geography of the practice -- where is it done?
