Abstract
A modified clothes hanger configured to suspend belts from a clothing rod. The device has a hook on its upper extreme, and a transverse beam on its lower extreme. A series of alternating prongs extend outward and upward from the transverse beam. The hook is placed over the clothing rod to install the device in a closet. The belt buckle of each belt to be hung is placed over one of the alternating prongs. The prongs are positioned and oriented so that the resulting weight placed on the hanger is well balanced. A variety of embodiments are described, including a hanger formed as one piece from molded plastic.
