"Hi this is Stacey and in this video I will show you how to make coat hanger crafts. The first idea is to make a kite out of a coat hanger. I have cut the hook off and then I shaped it into a diamond and next you are going to cover it with tissue paper. Now we are going to make the tail of the kite. I have cut different color ribbon and I have tied them together and now I'm going to tape them to the back of my kite. Now that we have put the tail on the kite you can decorate it. The next idea is to make an Easter egg out of a coat hanger. I have cut the hook off of the hanger and shaped it into an oval and next you're going to pick a color of tissue paper. I have chose white and you're going to fold it over your hanger and tape it. Now you are ready to decorate your Easter egg. You can use paint, markers, stickers, anything you'd like to decorate your egg. The last idea is to take a coat hanger and make a coat hanger mobile. You will need pictures, a hanger and clothes pins and you are just going to put the clothes pins on your hanger. You can also paint your clothes pins to make it more colorful and then you're going to take some pictures and you're just going to hang them. Then you have a simple coat hanger mobile."
