I did the same today. They smell so good and we will have a good nights sleep on them.

Ditto here too. I even made DH take out the pillows and futon cushion from the livingroom outside to air. :) I had the doors and windows open all day too. It was beautiful. Talked DD to sit in the sun for a bit as well. :thumbup:

I have swing set chain as my clothes line. It is great for hanging clothes already on hangers. And its the plastic covered chain.

The absolutely best and easiest clothesline to install and use is the large heavy duty umbrella folding one made by Hills. The deluxe model will hold six loads of wash. I can hardly get my lines full before the first load is dry. It comes prestrung, has a crank handle to raise and lower it and can be brought inside for the winter. It is massive and sturdy and much stronger than a regular umbrella clothesline. The only installation required is a hole dug to cement in the in ground tube that the post gets inserted into when putting it up. I've had mine for twenty years and am just now needed to restring it and I've left mine out all winter in Canada! Can you tell that I love this clothes line? They are available in the USA because I first saw them at the Kentuckey Farm Show.

I have clothlines up all year. Two outside and one inside in our laundry/mud room. There's just too many things I dont like to dry in the dryer..

Clothes lines are not allowed in the subdivision I live in. Sure wish they were.

I'm the only clothesline in the entire neighborhood. Don't do sheets, too many birds and problems, but do all my t shirts and "fine' washables outside in the summer and in the laundry room in the winter or rainy times. Not giving in to the clothesline police!

I use a retractable one, I love hanging out the sheets and blankets and some other items, nothing at all like air dried laundry!
