Clotheslines

Clotheslines are simple devices used for drying laundry outdoors. Typically, they consist of a length of cord or wire stretched between two posts or trees where wet clothes are hung using clips or pegs. As air moves around the wet fabric, it facilitates evaporation, helping clothes dry naturally without the use of a dryer. Clotheslines are environmentally friendly, reducing energy consumption and costs associated with electric dryers. They also impart a fresh scent to laundry dried in the open air and can save space in homes, making them a practical choice for many households.
