my favorite chore
For my thirtieth birthday, my husband gave me this great clothesline. Now, instead of using a dryer, I hang my clothes using recycled clothespins. It's fun, I swear! I'm not gonna be able to let my children do chores that are this fun!
What's your favorite chore around the house?

That's beautiful and how I envision my life once I get in order. I grew up with a clothesline outside and actually really liked hanging them when I was younger.

Can I just say that it does my heart good to see that clotheslines are making a come-back. I'm hoping to put one up this Spring. I'm so tired of the dryer not getting the job done (don't get me wrong, we have a good one - I think I just overload it). Also, it also makes me smile to see that you have towels that look like mine. LOL

I love this! My clothesline is the umbrella style portable one (I don't own a home, and move too often to set up anything permanent) that I can move around in the yard to the sunny spots for efficient drying. It's something to see me moving it around.
Doing laundry is my favorite chore in general, but it is especially in the summer. Since there is no way clothes can dry outside for us now, my "outdoor dryer" is folded up and safely put away until it gets warmer... though I would love to have one like in this video! If only I had a home where that would work...

How stikin' cute are you?!?! :D I hang dry when I can- but I suffer with allergy problems {yes, still even after being vegan for 2 years} so, when I do hang dry out doors I have to toss things in the dryer for a bit to kill/reduce molds/spores/pollen etc. I can be proud to have a very efficient washer/dryer set and use only vegan/environmentally safe detergents.

Need to start doing this again, it really makes a difference in PGE savings. And I love the smell of freshly air-dried laundry.

This is great! What type of clothes line is it? I haven't seen one that moves like that except for in the movies!

You are such a beautiful inspiration. I have that hoodie too, and wore it prego, lol, you look so cute!

Judging by this video your pregnancy seem to be quite advanced, it's so nice to see you seemingly genuinely happy, however I still have this impression that in your case making babies is more a real bother than anything else...

This is adorable! You make such a cute pregnant woman! I like that the clothesline rotates too! I live in Iowa where it is "too cold" to do that in the winter, but yet I see some people doing it and the clothes FREEZE dry! Definitely a romantic, nostalgic summer / spring / fall activity!

This is amazing. You know in New Zealand most people have washing lines....is that not the case in America? I'm sure I'd havee way more fun if mine moved like that. Mine is just attatch to a wall but I miss the standard tree/umbrella type ones that spin around.

oh my god that video made me so happy! I like washing windows. I love how much brighter a room is with clean windows plus you get to be outside doing it. -

I love taking the time to clean my entire kitchen!! My mom and I will put on great dancing music and dance and scrub!! It is so satisfying to see a clean kitchen and when we cook later that day everything is available, clean, put away and easily accessible. Plus we have so much fun together and get a good workout!
