    Anyone have/build a valet?

    Not referring to the little boxes you see on dressers, but stands to hold the next day's apparel, commonly a suit for men. I'm using more suits and such lately and I'd like to buy or make a stand.

    Not so much looking for plans or ideas, but anyone who uses or has built one of these, tell me what you like about it and what you'd change.
    I have a little blog about my shop

    What I like: The Convenience! I was given mine at high school graduation (1965) and took it to Japan and brought it back! I use it regularly.

    Mine has a good base but is straight up. It has a change/jewelry/watch tray but I don't use that much. It does add ridgidity to it. It is about 42 inches tall and doesn't take up very much space. I prefer to hang my suit coat or blazer there rather than on the bed if I am going to wear the coat again in a couple of hours or so.

      I have one that was my dad's but can't say it has been used much. Never found a good place to put it. It is a chair with a hangar back and a swing out change tray.
