Coat hangers are just boring, aren't they? Whether they're plastic, wooden or metal - they're just so dull.

So here's a great Finger Tip for jazzing them up.

If you think your best t-shirt or top looks good on you - imagine how good it'd look on a star!
To make a Famous Coat Hanger, you'll need to find a photograph of someone's face that's A4 size.

Magazines are a good place to look, but if you can't find one, most computer paint software will allow you to resize a photograph to A4 so that it's big enough for you to print off.
You'll need two wire coat hangers for this. Be very careful, because they're usually quite sharp and will hurt if you accidentally jab yourself!

Bend the first hanger like this.
The second hanger stays the same shape. Slot it into the one you bent earlier, so that it looks like this.
Carefully cut out the picture of your star and stick it down on a large piece of cardboard.

Add a couple of pointy shoulders, too.
Flip the cardboard over and position the two hangers on the back, like this.

Use lots of sticky tape to make it secure.
To neaten off, score with a pencil down both sides of the hanger.

That'll make it easy for you to fold the flaps over the back of the hangers.

Stick down with plenty more tape.
And there you have a Finger Tips Famous Coat Hanger!
