My mom used to when I was little, on the cool summer days.

tI hang them around my apartment with the windows open, saves evergy and money!

Growing up, my mom would on occasion. Now? I most definitely wouldn't. Orlando's air is gross and someone would probably steal your clothes. Maybe if I lived closer to the coast in a nice neighborhood!

In summer yes, but at the moment they are all coming out baked crisp from the dryer.

In the summer at my parents, they always do. Evry load is hung outside and clothes smell and feel soooo fresh!
Now that I live in an apartment it is kind of hard to...maybe I will find a way though

I like to call it Dry-n-Fry

It's something I would do during the summer time. Saves energy.

I don't like the way my clothes feel after hanging outside to dry. I've tried it on more than one occasion, for clothes and sheets and towels alike, but they were left feeling semi-stiff and not soft at all.

i hang mine inside from time to time. mostly in the summer... but i do on occasion when i dont want something shrinking or with towels.

cassie elle - what you do first is throw them in the dryer fr like 5 minutes with a bounce sheets AND THEN hang them and they won't feel stiff

i do it in the summer.

I hang my clothes inside my house. I have too many clothes that can't go in the dryer or they'll shrink or fade. I wish I could hang them ouside, but my townhouse association (and probably my neighbors) wouldn't like it.

I try to do it as often as possible though it's tiring and can be a pain. In Australia everyone does it all the time (and they are faster and better at it than we are as a result). We're so spoiled here.

I do compromise: I use my dryer for the small stuff - undies and socks and something I might need right away - but I try to put everything else out, and if I'm really tired or unispired, I at least put out the heaviest stuff, the jeans, heavy cotton shirts, towels.

there is somthing i like about seeing clothes drying in the sun. i grew up with my mother doing it but now i dont have a place to.

I do and I live in a city too. I dont do all of them of course, just delicates and things I don't want to shrink.

I used to in my old house because I had a nice big yard. Where I'm living now I don't. I plan on doing it again after we move next month.
Beyond being energy efficient, it's very relaxing and it just feels good and smells good. I feel like an old fashioned mama when I do it.

i do all year round. my electric bill is over $800/mo. without running a dryer. i couldnt imagine running the dryer more than necessary. i couldnt afford to live in my house lol. i live in lakeland(central FL) and the air is clean enough.

No clothesline for me since I live in a condo with no balcony, but I do have a little rack that I dry all my shirts and pants on (sheets, towels, socks and underwear all still have to go in the dryer or they get crunchy!)

I have the world's smallest yard, and I invested in a $20 retractable clothesline. When not in use it winds up and it's completely out of site. When in use, it stretches across my yard up to 40 feet long and holds a full load of laundry. I highly recommend it!

No...knowing me, I'd just forget about them out there too and they'd get rained on and such...

My grandmother always used to do this and my sister and I would help her sometimes when we were little.

In the summer I hang them but then I throw them in they dryer for 5minutes with a dryer sheet.

i hate how rough clothes get when they're air dried. i like to make em all soft and shrunken a lil in the dryer

I try to hang them outside but during the winter i have to use the dryer..

Actually, hanging clothes on a line is the worse thing you can do if you have allergies because of all the pollen that gets collected in the fibers. I wish my dryer was a little more eco-friendly, but thats the only way to go.

I have allergies and the worst thing I could do is hang my wet clothes outside to trap all of the airbourne pollens and molds in them!!!! Not good for us allergy sufferers!!!!

I don't think my clothes feel the same or fit the same when I dry them on the line. I love the smell after they come out of the dryer and nothing beats having your own washer and dryer. To help cut back on energy I try to use the cold wash cycle.

Our neighborhood doesn't allow clothes lines.

I live in an apartment in Korea, no place to hang laundry. I have a washer that supposedly dries also, but it works for crap. I use a drying rack.

I would love to have a clothesline but I don't have the space right now.

I have a closeline out in the summer, and a drying rack the rest of the year. I'm too tall to put most of my stuff in the dryer, everything would be too short.

yea, in the summer i hang them on my fire escape, i dry my under wears in the bthrrom, and we have a clothesline in the bathroom.

I hang stuff outside when weather permits, and stuff inside when I can...however it often stays up way too often...

I keep meaning to, but haven't yet.

i do this with clothes because the dryer is so hard on them (sets a stain and shrinks). i pass clothes down for my 3 girls and this helps a lot. sheet and towels go in the dryer though, i like them soft.

If it's a delicate fabric I will hang it on the line instead of popping it in the dryer.

Hanging the laundry out to dry was the only way to go when we lived in Australia. Every yard had one of those spinning clothes line things, even in the nice neighborhoods. It's so hot there that the clothes dry in no time and using the dryer only makes your house hotter. Now I only line dry things in the summer because I'm too lazy to get my winter gear on to do it in the winter.

All of my shirts and delicates

I don't really like the way clothesline hung clothes feel after drying, they are so stiff. I love the toasty feel of clothes right out of the dryer, especially now in that its getting colder... mmm toasty socks

My mom used to all the time. We never used the dryer.
But towels were always stiff and crunchy. =(

It depends from the weather.

The only time I use a dryer is if it's raining or I need an item quickly.

I grew up using clothes lines to dry everything and have always loved to have them where ever I have lived, but unfortunately, it is not an option now. We have a serious bird problem. They sit on the lines, on the clean clothes and do their business and my clothes aren't clean anymore. This makes me very sad.

I wish I could dry outside, but it's forbidden by my HOA.

We dry them outside all the time =)

When I am in El Salvador of course my clothes are line dried. Here in the bay I would never get them dry enough with all the fog I have at my house.

I have a ceiling airer which means I can dry my clothes indoors all year round without using the tumble dryer. I can highly recommend getting one and I got my at www.pulleymaid.com
