Drying Center in a Guest Room

Drying Center in a Guest Room
Although we have a clothesline, stuff hanging on it always smells dusty even though it is located by a paved alley over green grass. So I don't use it. I converted our spare bedroom into the laundry drying room. I went to The Container Store and bought their largest indoor collapsible dryer ($50), I have been happily using it ever since (see the photo, it's not available via their website). Although not mentioned on their web site, the stores will stock them until they run out. However, you don't have to use this particular unit. You could set up a collapsible drying rack or two in any spare unused room and do the same thing.

My house has a tiny excuse for a laundry room in the hallway to the garage, which is more like a mini-niche with the washer on one side, the dryer on the other and inches to spare between the machines and the wall. DH put up rods from which to hang clothing over the units, but you run the risk of getting slapped in the face by a wet shirt or undergarment if you're not careful. I like the guest room idea better. When we have overnight visitors, I'll fold up the drying rack and tuck it into the master bath.

Should have done it years ago but didn't think of it 'til the last time I popped into the store for inspiration.
