Shaker laundry

Clothes line in roomy bathroom. I enjoyed hanging clothes last summer, then i got an idea. I hinged a board with hooks ( eye hook cut open to string clothes line quickly) along it's side. Folds flat against top of washer/ dryer cupboard when not in use. Then another trim board with altered eye hooks on wall above shower stall. Easy to string clothes line when needed. It's hidden out of site when not being used. Made from stuff i had . Worked out very well.

This side folds flat on top of closet. Can't see when unstrung and folded. The Shakers had these incredible laundry facilities including heated drying rooms. Figured, i got heat...takes about 24 hrs to dry and i can hang 2 loads easily, more if i use hangers.

This is the shower stall side. The eye hooks are altered making putting up and down very fast and easy. I can reach with out stool. It's been fun customizing 610 for creature comforts and special use. Love my tools and inventory of salvaged materiala.
