A method for manufacturing plastic articles which consists of twisting a relatively flat strip of plastic so that it is helical in shape, winding the plastic in layers on a holder, sealing the layers together in a narrow longitudinal area while the twisted plastic remains on the holder, adding stiffening means to the plastic while it remains on the holder and passing a cutting element through the plastic in a direction longitudinally along the holder thereby permitting the cut unsealed layers of plastic to flare outwardly so that the stiffening element and heat sealed longitudinal portion constitutes an axis. The elongated articles produced are then folded double and given a twist to produce a clothes hanger when provided with a hook or a brush when provided with a handle.
