Not sure about the hanging part, but ziplock makes some giant ziplock bags.
They are pretty sturdy. I use them to organize projects and they come in 3
different sizes. The large is a good size for needlework projects and the xxl
is almost big enough for a comforter.
A friend puts all her projects in large zip-closure plastic bags. Hefty
makes a 2.5 gal one, although there is no way to easily hang one without
making a hole in the bag. Ziploc makes what they call Big Bags in three
sizes, all of which have handles which could be used to hang the bag. The
Michael,
Your best bet would be to sew for it. Buy clear tablecloth plastic,
make up your bags with tops in the shape of the hangers you plan to
use, and bind the seams with cotton twill. Use an overlapped vertical
opening, with perhaps some stitch-down area at the bottom so loose
things
The kind of shoe bags that hang on the back of the door work well for storing
notions and such. Try to find one with clear plastic pockets.

May I suggest clear book bags already with a handle. Doing a search using the
terms library book bags clear hanger I found a few different companies with
bags that may work for what you need.
I know when I get the funds for them, that is my plan.

Greetings,
Has anyone had much luck cutting down the white plastic artificial
whalebone, into much smaller pieces, say length-wise? I've tried
soaking it in boiling water first to try and soften it up, I tried
using a brand new exacto knife, scissors, and all I got was a mess
and sore
You could always try the two Yahoogroups that are more or less
associated with H-Costume, and used for selling costumes, fabric,
books, etc... and start there. They are
http://groups.yahoo.com//group/swapsell/swapsell and
http://groups.yahoo.com//group/costumetrader/costumetrader or
there
In a related project, I once took fairly stiff wire and wound really
flexible wire around it in a tight spiral. It bent as I wanted, but
didn't get weird. It was very narrow.

Have you tried weed-waker line? It comes in several sizes and is easy to cut
and cheap.

In a related project, I once took fairly stiff wire and
1/8 wide zip ties, though they only come in short lengths. Long enough for
corsetry, though (yeah, been there, done that).

Someone suggested to me once that cutting strips from a milk jug makes
wonderful boning for smaller projects, like dolls. I haven't had time to
test it myself, but it seems like a pretty good idea. You can always
double up on layers if you need it a bit stiffer too.

Try the smaller gauge zipties and a wirecutter to get then to the length you
want. If you want something finer than that, try the plastic calling used tor
tagging merchandise.
