A 'Green' Clothesline Pin Hanger

So, I'm hanging out the laundry yesterday and thinking, 'Oh, I really need to look into making or buying one of those cool clothespin hanger thingees.'

Then, what happens next? I go to the library and check out this book called 'Organic Housekeeping' by Eleen Sandbeck and what awaits me inside? A cool idea for this gadget.

It literally took me about 2 minutes to make. My empty milk jug was already rinsed and calling out 'Please re-use me!' ;)

So, I snatched her up, *cut a hand sized hole in the front and cut through her lil handle that had previously been grasped by chocolate chip cookie laden hands, and wah-lah! She smiled with glee and so did I.

I proudly hung her on the line filled with wooden pins and there she was, no longer bound for the recycle bin.

You fancy crafty gals can doll it up any way you'd like. I'm more of the not so crafty, don't care as long as it's doin' the job kinda gals.

*Note where the hole is cut - it's the best place to keep everything sturdy and hanging properly on the line.
