Nothing smells quite as wonderful as bed sheets dried on the clothesline. If they could bottle that scent I'd wear it. If they could put it in a candle, I'd have a house full of Yankees in that particular scent. I simply adore it.
Getting the sheets on the line- not so much.
It's kind of a pain in the hindquarters. Especially when you can't keep track of your clothes pins.
So I picked up this funny looking little thing. It's basically a (pretending to be) cloth bag with a wire going through the top to keep it open a bit and a metal hook to hang it from your clothesline. Unfortunately, it has not stood the test of time very well. In fact, I lose more pins that I transport in it anymore.
About a week ago I came across Busha's clothes pin apron while QM and I were working in her garage. "I can make that," I thought....and I did.
It's made entirely out of scrap fabric I had from other projects (mostly from a kitchen apron I made for Inkling a few years back). It might look a bit odd on, but that's because it's holding about 150 or more clothes pins.
Maybe this will inspire me to do laundry tomorrow. Then again, I really like looking at it while it sits on the kitchen table. Maybe I'll make it our new centerpiece.
