What is claimed is: 1. A garment hanger operable to receive an attaching hanger, the attaching hanger having an attachment plate, the attachment plate having first and second openings defined therethrough, the garment hanger comprising: a cross member; and a loop member depending downwardly from the cross member, the loop member cooperating with the cross member to form a closed loop; wherein the loop member further comprises: a first portion defining a first opposing surface lying in a first plane and having a first nodule extending therefrom; a second portion defining a second opposing surface lying in a second plane and having a second nodule extending therefrom; and a third portion disposed between the first and second portions, the third portion connecting the first and second opposing surfaces, whereby the first and second opposing surfaces are spaced apart such that the first nodule extends towards the second plane and the second nodule extends towards the first plane; wherein the first and second portions define first and second longitudinal axes, respectively, and the first and second longitudinal axes are not parallel, whereby the first and second nodules are operable to be received by the first and second openings of the attachment plate of the attaching hanger, respectively; and wherein the nodules each comprise a stem with a ball joint mounted on the stem. 2. A garment hanger according to claim 1, wherein a plurality of nodules are disposed on one surface of the loop member. 3. A garment hanger according to claim 1, further comprising an arm extending upwardly from the cross member towards a second cross member, wherein the first and second cross members are connected in a tandem arrangement. 4. A garment hanger according to claim 3, further comprising a second arm extending upwardly from the second cross member, the second arm having an attaching plate connected thereto. 5. A garment hanger according to claim 1, wherein the first and second planes are parallel to each other. 6. A method for mounting a first hanging apparatus to a second hanging apparatus, the method comprising: providing a first hanging apparatus having a cross member and a loop depending downwardly from the cross member, wherein the loop defines a pair of opposing surfaces each having at least one hole formed therethrough; providing a second hanging apparatus, the second hanging apparatus having an arm and an attaching plate connected to the arm, wherein the attaching plate includes a plurality of nodules disposed thereon, a centrally disposed opening, and a slot extending from the opening; and inserting the attaching plate over a portion of the loop via the slot, rotating the attaching plate to align the holes with the nodules, and exerting force on the attaching plate to secure the nodules to the holes. 7. A garment hanger operable to receive an attaching hanger, the attaching hanger having an attachment plate, the attachment plate having first and second openings defined therethrough, the garment hanger comprising: a cross member; and a loop member depending downwardly from the cross member, the loop member cooperating with the cross member to form a closed loop; wherein the loop member further comprises: a first portion defining a first opposing surface lying in a first plane and having a first nodule extending therefrom; a second portion defining a second opposing surface lying in a second plane and having a second nodule extending therefrom; and a third portion disposed between the first and second portions, the third portion connecting the first and second opposing surfaces, whereby the first and second opposing surfaces are spaced apart such that the first nodule extends towards the second plane and thesecond nodule extends towards the first plane; wherein the first and second portions define first and second longitudinal axes, respectively, and the first and second longitudinal axes are not parallel, whereby the first and second nodules are operable to be received by the first and second openings of the attachment plate of the attaching hanger, respectively; and wherein the nodules each comprise a peg. 8. A garment hanger according to claim 7, wherein a plurality of nodules are disposed on one surface of the loop member. 9. A garment hanger according to claim 7, further comprising an arm extending upwardly from the cross member towards a second cross member, wherein the first and second cross members are connected in a tandem arrangement. 10. A garment hanger according to claim 9, further comprising a second arm extending upwardly from the second cross member, the second arm having an attaching plate connected thereto. 11. A garment hanger according to claim 7, wherein the first and second planes are parallel to each other. 12. A garment hanger, comprising: a cross member; and a loop member depending downwardly from the cross member, the loop member cooperating with the cross member to form a closed loop; wherein the loop member further comprises: a first portion having proximal and distal ends and defining a first opposing surface therebetween lying in a first plane, wherein the first portion has a first nodule extending from the first opposing surface, and the proximal end of the first portion is directly connected to and thereby abuts the cross member; a second portion having proximal and distal ends and defining a second opposing surface therebetween lying in a second plane, wherein the second portion has a second nodule extending from the second opposing surface, and the proximal end of the second portion is directly connected to and thereby abuts the cross member; and a third portion directly connected to the distal ends of the first and second portions, the third portion connecting the first and second opposing surfaces, whereby the first and second opposing surfaces are spaced apart such that the first nodule extends towards the second plane and the second nodule extends towards the first plane; and wherein the nodules each comprise a peg. 13. A garment hanger according to claim 12, wherein a plurality of nodules Previously presented are disposed on one surface of the loop member. 14. A garment hanger according to claim 13, further comprising an arm extending upwardly from the cross member towards a second cross member, wherein the first and second cross members are connected in a tandem arrangement. 15. A garment hanger according to claim 14, further comprising a second arm extending upwardly from the second cross member, the second arm having an attaching plate connected thereto. 16. A garment hanger according to claim 12, wherein the first and second planes are parallel to each other. 17. A garment hanger according to claim 16, wherein the first and second portions define first and second longitudinal axes, respectively, and the first and second longitudinal axes are not parallel. 18. A garment hanger, comprising: a cross member; and a loop member depending downwardly from the cross member, the loop member cooperating with the cross member to form a closed loop; wherein the loop member further comprises: a first portion having proximal and distal ends and defining a first opposing surface therebetween lying in a first plane, wherein the first portion has a first nodule extending from the first opposing surface, and the proximal end of the first portion is directly connected to and thereby abuts the cross member; a second portion having proximal and distal ends and defining a second opposing surface therebetween lying in a second plane, wherein the second portion has a second nodule extending from the second opposing surface, and the proximal end of the second portion is directly connected to and thereby abuts the cross member; and a third portion directly connected to the distal ends of the first and second portions, the third portion connecting the first and second opposing surfaces, whereby the first and second opposing surfaces are spaced apart such that the first nodule extends towards the second plane and the second nodule extends towards the first plane; and wherein the nodules each comprise a stem with a ball joint mounted on the stem. 19. A garment hanger according to claim 18, wherein the first and second planes are parallel to each other. 20. A garment hanger according to claim 19, wherein the first and second portions define first and second longitudinal axes, respectively, and the first and second longitudinal axes are not parallel.
