I wish I could hang things outside. But allergies prevent that.
To me hanging things indoors just doesn't have the "outdoorsy smell" I love. |
I prefer a clothes line,but sometimes I just hang things up on hangers and I have a closet bar in my laundry room and I let them dry in there.
|
I use both outside depending on the amount of laundry.
I have a decorative change hung across the laundry room where I can hang shirts to dry. Door jams work well too if you're in a pinch. ;) I have been known to a hang clothes line in the kitchen when the weather is bad.

I love hanging some things outside, but I may have to resort to the basement - do you have a preference for indoor hanging -- a clothesline or one of those wooden rack things? (I suppose I could get one at Walmart?) |
I have a rack for sweaters, and I have been know to hang coats, jackets on hangers on the exposed pipes in my unfinished room, (but only a couple of items go there)
|
Both - several lines strung across the basement and then 3 racks for the smaller items - socks, underwear - and sweaters that I don't want to hang on the lines. Very rarely run my dryer.
|
I have a cloths line out side and one on my back porch that way if it looks like rain I can move things inside. We don't have basements here in Florida. Wish we did.

Clothesline in good weather, rack in the winter.
|
I had a 100' line until Hurricane Irene took the tree down that it was attached to - now I'm hanging up a lot of things that can't go in the dryer. DH has promised to cement in a pole to replace the downed tree. Sigh!

Go to Lowe's or Menards if you can and get the retractable clotheslines for outside. I love mine. Up when I need it and down when I don't.

My sister in law and her sister did what all their neighbors did. No clothes line, no problem. They strung clothes line rope on the garage door. Pinned the clothes and opened the door. Haven't seen that in a long time. Now my daughter in law wants a clothes line, I'm going to tell her about this. Me, I need to replace mine, the post are all rotted.
