Tips for Hanging Out Laundry on Your Clothesline

Something inside of me finds it therapeutic to hang out my laundry. Anyone else there with me? Today, I want to share with you some tips to hanging out your laundry on the clothesline.

I know, I get this from my momma. It is not uncommon for me to get a text from my mom saying, I hope my laundry dries well today. Usually, I text her back and say that I hope mine does as well. 

Saving money, using the fresh air that God has provided, being outside...can you beat that with a little metal box?

Last year, my SIL got this clothes line at a garage sale for $1. She didn't want it, so she sold it to me. I love that $1 purchase.

Here are a few tips that will help you hang out your laundry.

• Hang the heaviest items on the outside so that they dry faster.
• Hang shirts from the bottom so under the arms dry well.
• Hang things you don't want your neighbors to see on the inside.
• Spread out your laundry so that it dries better.
• Hang your socks together so that taking them down is easier.
• Enjoy the sunshine and fresh air.

I asked my husband for more tips. His tip was, to do what your wife says. Oh my! Do you have any more tips to share?

You can read about my preferences when if comes to picking clothespins.

I also shared some ideas about buying or making clothespin bags.

I would love to hear input on clotheslines. I don't have any experience except on the umbrella clothesline.
