    I remember my grandma had one of these when she used to hang the clothes on the line. Brings back memories of helping her hang clothes on the line.

    We had a clothes line complete with a clothespin bag but it was just a plain bag. I hated the chore of hanging clothes because it all had to be hung by specific rules and my mom is a perfectionist!
    I hated having to lug everything back in the house! Maybe that is why my husband does all the laundry now!!

    Your clothespin bag is adorable and brings back such great memories. I LOVE to hang out clothes-wish I could have a clothesline here.

    I was thinking about finding a little girls dress at a thrift store or on sale somewhere and sewing a bag inside it, attaching it along the waist line. :wink:

    I have one and It does hold the clothespins. I have a basement and I hang all my clothes up. Saves on the electric. clothes last longer too!

    I have a clothesline that I use in the Summer months to dry quilts on, etc. My closthespin bag is a hanging plant bucket. When I am done, I hang it in the shed (saves the pins from the weather) which is near the clothesline. I have made several pin bags with children's coat hangers. I will dig one of them out for my plastic bags. I use the bags to line small trash cans, saves washing a lot of trash cans.
