The ends of each of the six coat hooks feature a white knob style stopper that serves two functions.  First, they reduce the risk of items falling off the hooks and onto the floor.  And second, they provide a beautiful accent to the chrome frame for visual appeal.  As a bonus, the knobs also protect fabrics from rips, tears and snags.  Wall mounted hook racks can be used all over the home and office for a neat and tidy home.  In the entryway or mudroom, a coat rack keeps jackets and hats off the floor and on the rack where they belong.  In the closet, wall hooks can hold everything from scarves and coats and even can be used as a tie rack.  To keep the kids rooms clean, a wall mounted coat rack is a quick and easy to use tool for them.  Just make sure to mount it at their height, not yours!  And finally, in the garage, a wall mounted rack is perfect for sports equipment, snow gear and baseball caps.  This wall coat rack from Stacks and Stacks is a great choice for shared living and roommate situations, or for big families and even for singles!  The timeless design will work well for years and years!  Whatever your storage needs in the home, this 6 hook wall mounted coat rack can help out!

A Review of Mens Valets

By Clive Oxford

I’m a powerful business executive, so I know just how important it is to look my best. My clothing needs to be wrinkle free and immaculate. Keeping business attire in incredible shape can sometimes try your patience, and organizing these clothes can be cumbersome. It doesn’t have to be that way.

I have a suggestion for those working in the business sector, with a closet full of business attire: consider a fine mens valet. They are functional, stylish, and best of all, they make the day to day process of preparing fro your day at the office all the more simple.  You can hang suits, belts, pants, trousers, socks, almost every facet of your business attire from a valet.  They remain organized, free of wrinkles, and ready for you when you need them.

I purchased a fine model online from a dependable online retailer, Stacks and Stacks, but you can fine a mens valet almost anywhere. The model I chose features dependability, and a classic look. It handily fits into my closet, and every night I can set out my items to wear for the next morning.  It really helps speed me along to that first meeting, knowing I look my best, and didn’t need to waste time selecting clothing for the day.

What is a nice side benefit to a well designed and fully-functional valet is a seat.  yes, having a seat whilst placing shoes upon your feet is a real comfort.  You may also find it convenient to place you wallet, jewelry, or other personal items into the myriad shelves or holding areas of the valet.

As a top executive, I needed to find a dependable valet for my clothing. I discovered a perfect model online, and utilized the valet to make my clothing storage and organization easier.

You can too.

A Business Man and his Ties

I’m a business man that wears a tie every day.  Naturally, I am very busy and do not have the time to sift through all my ties in the morning before important 5:30 AM meetings.  I just want a tie rack that allows me to find my tie quickly and efficiently.
As a high-powered business man, I have a large closet.  Sometimes I put some of my ties in one storage area, and put my other ties elsewhere. This can get very confusing for me in the wee hours of the morning, when all I really want to do is find my Donald Trump graphic tie. (I wear it on days that I fire people. I just call them in and point at the tie.)

Tie - O - Matic Motorized Tie Rack

As a wealthy, high-powered business man, I have a lot of ties.  And when I say “a lot of ties” I really mean it.  They call me the tie king.  In fact, by my last count I have 63 ties in total!  Luckily for me, my co-workers saved up and bought me the incredible tie - o - matic motorized tie rack for my 25 year anniversary with the company. It is able to hold 64 ties and eight belts, which really makes my life more organized and my closet storage more sensible.  Just a push of a button and my ties are rotating smoothly, allowing me to pick the perfect tie to top off my ensemble.  The light also comes in handy before my early morning meetings, allowing me to see my ties in the dark.

The only problem is, when I got home my wife got me two more ties, putting me at the 65 tie mark. It was just too hard to pick which tie I would exclude from my motorized tie rack; I love them all so much! I decided I would find out where to get such a revolutionary product.  I asked my friends where they purchased such a convenient and useful tie rack, and they told me about purchasing it at Stacksandstacks.com.

Now I have two motorized tie racks and naturally, I had to fill up the second one.  I now am the proud owner of 128 awesome ties!  I am the tie king.

Review: Wall Mounted 30 Tie Organizer

Wall Mounted 30 Tie Organizer

It only takes a few essentials to keep a well dressed mans closet in style. By properly storing your suits and accessories you can cut down on trips to the dry cleaners and save time getting ready in the morning. With the right hangers, shoe rack and men’s valet any closet can be well organized.

When properly stored suits only need to be dry cleaned a few times a year. Make sure that suit jackets are hung on a padded or formed hanger that won’t leave behind hanger marks. Make sure that hangers are evenly spaced with about an inch between each garment for proper air flow. Dress shirts should never go in the dryer, hang them up to dry and then iron while still slightly damp to get a smooth look.

Storing your tie collection comes down to finding the right tie rack. With the Wall Mounted 30 Tie Organizer from Stacks and Stacks, finding the tie you’re looking for is easy. Individual tie hangers allow you to easily organize your tie collection. Specially designed tie hooks ensure that ties stay flat. If you can’t hang up a tie right away make sure to roll it up rather than folding it which can cause creases.

Keep cufflinks paired up with a men’s valet that has small compartments for storing them together. If you have a watch with a leather wristband look for a valet designed for storing watches with cushions that support the band and keep it from getting out of shape.

When it comes to storing shoes, especially leather ones don’t wear them two days in a row so that they have time to dry out. An over the door rack is a good way to store shoes since it allows them to air out and saves space at the same time.

Review: Cedar Tie Rack

Cedar Tie Rack with 24 Brass Pegs

Cedar Tie Rack with 24 Brass Pegs

Review By Mitchel Murray

In the world of business, it is important to have a wide selection of ties at your disposal. Ties for power meetings, ties for informal meetings, ties for boardroom presentations. This adds up to many, many ties. Organizing these ties can be cumbersome. It doesn’t have to be.

I have a suggestion for my fellow business-minded readers with an abundance of ties: this suggestion can also assist the casual career type who has, for one reason or another, found themselves with a varied and plentiful selection of ties.  My suggestion, quite simply, is to find yourself a cedar tie rack with 24 brass pegs.

Cedar, because cedar is an aromatic wood; beautiful, and long lasting.  Your closet will avoid the trapping of a musty, dank smelling clothing repository with a nice peice of cedar bolted to the wall. Brass, because brass features dependability, strength, and a classic look. 24 pegs, because studies have shown that a successful businessman should have a top roster of 24 ties at his disposal, readily accessible. For the non-businessman, the option of hanging up to 24 ties of varying quality is a nice comfort, and will certainly help in the selection of a tie, on that rare occasion that a tie is needed.

What is a nice side benefit to a cedar tie rack with 24 brass pegs is the option to hang your keys or belts from the rack’s side hooks.  You may also find it convenient to place you wallet, jewelry, or other personal items on the well-placed top shelf built into the tie rack.

As a businessman, I needed to find a classic, dependable rack for my ties. I found the perfect cedar constructed tie rack, and utilized it to make my personal tie selection, storage, and organization easier.

You can too. Get your cedar tie rack at Stacks and Stacks!

Haiti - How to Help

haiti-flag1One of the poorest and least developed countries in the world, Haiti in recent years has struggled with problems ranging from near-constant political upheaval, health crises, severe environmental degradation and an annual barrage of hurricanes, which killed an estimated 800 people and caused vast damage in 2008.

On Jan. 12, 2010, a massive earthquake struck Haiti, reducing much of its capital to rubble. It was the worst earthquake in the region in more than 200 years. Since then, there have been aftershocks, causing even more devastation.

It’s far too easy to feel powerless to help in the face of such heartbreaking news. But you can help!

To give to the Red Cross, phone users can text the word “HAITI” to 90999 to donate $10, and when prompted, hit “YES” to confirm the donation.

The donation is added to the cell user’s bill, and receipts are available.

Other text-message codes for donations include:

• Text the word “HAITI” to 20222 to donate $10 to the Clinton Foundation Haiti Relief Fund.

• Text “HAITI” to 25383 to donate $5 to the International Rescue Committee.

• Text “HAITI” to 85944 to donate $10 to the International Medical Corps.

Also, some of my favorite companies have started donation campaigns for relief work in Haiti. Through January 28, StacksAndStacks.com will be donating $10 on every order over $100 dollars to the American Red Cross. You can make this a philanthropic double whammy - buy some organizing supplies for a local charity in your neighborhood, and if you spend over $100 dollars, you’ll be helping Haiti as well! It’s a new version of “Think Globally, Act Locally” - it’s “Act Locally, Act Globally”!
