How to Draw a Hanger
Draw a hanger in 10 easy steps, about 8 minutes. Free, with a printable worksheet.
Each picture adds one red line. Draw that line, then scroll to the next picture. Rub out any dashed helper lines at the end. First up: the wooden frame.
Step 1: The wooden frame
In the middle draw a wide triangle with a point on top, rounded bottom corners and a flat bottom.
Tip Let the sloping sides run all the way down to the round corners, like a hanger's shoulders.
Step 2: The open middle
Inside the frame draw a smaller triangle, leaving slim wooden arms and a wider bar along the bottom.
Step 3: Two eyes
In the middle of the bottom bar draw 2 small egg eyes. Colour a big black dot in each.
Step 4: Smile and cheeks
Under the eyes draw a small U smile from eye to eye, and a tiny oval cheek at each end.
Step 5: The neck
From the top point of the frame draw a short narrow post straight up, for the neck of the hook.
Step 6: The hook
From the neck's top curve up and over to the right like a question mark, stopping at a little ball.
Step 7: The rail
Draw a straight rail from left to right through the top of the curl. The hook hangs on it.
Step 8: Sparkles
Draw 4 little sparkles in the air around the hanger.
Step 9: Grey neck, pink cheeks
Go over your lines, then colour the neck grey and the cheeks pink.
Step 10: Wood hanger
Colour the frame wood brown around the cheeks. Leave the eyes white and the middle empty. Your hanger is ready!
Your finished drawing
Follow the steps above and this is where you end up: a hanger, drawn by you.
