How to Build a Clothes Hanging Rack

Avoid ruining even one "line dry only" article of clothing by recklessly tossing it in the dryer. Clothes hanging racks range anywhere from $20 to as much as $150 dollars. With a few basic supplies from your local hardware store, you can build a clothes hanging rack that is both durable and one of a kind. Does this Spark an idea?

Instructions

    • 1

      Stack 6 cinder blocks on top of one another.

    • 2

      Stack 6 more cinder blocks 4 1/2 feet across from your first stack of blocks.

    • 3

      Place a broom handle in the top cinder block and across into the second stack's top cinder block.

    • 4

      Insert another broom handle in the other side of the top cinder block and across to the second stack. There should now be two broom handles "strung" across the two stacks of cinder blocks.

    • 5

      Insert more broom handles into each set of cinder blocks, all the way down to the first set. This will give you multiple drying racks.

Tips & Warnings

  • Purchase 5-feet lengths of 1-inch diameter pipe instead of plastic broom handles. Use this clothes rack indoors or outdoors.

  • Children should not help lift or move cinder blocks.
