I have a clothes line. I'm one lucky person to have it and use it too.

I don't use a clothes line, but I do use clothes pins. I find many uses for them in the house.

I still use mine, mostly in Spring and Fall.

Very cute!

those are too cute! Thinking of all the things they could be used for - make them "theme appropriate: and

hang them in the closet and put pantyhose in them
hang them in the room or closet and put little boys or girls socks in them (save drawer space)
hang them in the closet and put dog leashes, poop bags, etc. ready for the walk

They are so cute, hang them in your laundry room and put whatever you want in them!

Thanks for the pictures...they are too cute!

decorate appropriately

NoraB, those are great ideas, hope others can share their thoughts so we all can make some of them.

In our RV park in Florida - I think at least half the people dry their clothes on lines.

My sister in CA uses a clothesline for drying things.

Those are so adorable. Especially like the black one. Nice workmanship

Those are adorable. I still use my mom's old bag and the top edges are fraying. Thanks for the link-love modabakeshop.

Wow I have learnt a lot about clothes lines in the US! LolAnd as for all the rules... We have some new housing developments with some rules I think but generally if you own your property you can do what you like (which is as it should be imo).

Lots of people in the UK use washing lines - often a rotary one but ‘straight’ ones too. Why pay to use a dryerbhen mother nature does it for free? Plus you can’t beat the smell of clothes straight off the line!

I am already halfway through my first peg bag!
