The post nine-days laundry marathon is upon us! Another place to hang your clothes, here.
Your drying rack is full, the shower rod is full, and you’re out of places to hang the laundry backlog. This hack (is it really a hack?) was born in my first apartment where I had no space for a drying rack but needed a good spot to hang wet clothes. So… I used my broom!
Rest your broom across the back of two sturdy chairs (higher-backed chairs work best), and voila, instant drying rack. It’s perfect if you’re short on space or just don’t want to invest in another drying rack for a few busy days of laundry. Our broom comes out post nine-days, post Yom-Tov, or whenever I need the extra hanging space.
As long as the toddler doesn’t pick that day to spill out a cereal box, it’s the perfect solution. Any broom works, but hear about our favorites here!
In addition, many of us own extra rolling coat racks that work really well for these times of year with lots – and lots – of laundry. (They’re also great when hosting lots of guests or as extra prep space when making a simcha.)
