Woman reveals free hack to dry clothes outside even when it’s raining – and she’s been hailed a genius
THERE’S nothing more annoying than doing a load of laundry only for it to start raining, or so we thought.
But it turns out there’s a genius hack you can use to keep drying your clothes outside even if there is a shower.
Gemma put a pop up tent over her washing line to keep the rain off her clothes[/caption]Taking to social media, Gemma Bird revealed the simple hack she uses and people are saying it’s genius.
The UK-based mum is prepared for all weather when it comes to hanging her clothes outside.
In the clip, she said: “Save some money on electricity.
“The autumn will be here soon and the rain will soon kick in.
“So rather than dry the washing in the house on an airer or on the radiators or use a tumble dryer… we’ve put the pop up tent over the washing line!
“Keeps it dry, the clothes get dry using the fresh air… thus saving money.”
In the video she showed the tent in action, she tucked the corners of the tent into the corners of the clothing line to keep it in place.
The clothes underneath were completely covered from any unexpected rain storms.
The clip posted to her TikTok account @moneymumofficial has since gone viral with over 500k views and over 6,000 likes.
People were quick to share their thoughts and thank her for the money-saving hack.
One person wrote: “I don’t have a garden but still great idea… I have to put fans on and leave the clothes by a window.”
Another commented: “Excellent idea.”
“I feel like this is genius,” penned a third.
Meanwhile a fourth said: “Fantastic idea.”
“Genius,” claimed a fifth.
Someone else added: “Great idea and even if it doesn’t dry completely it’s less for the dryer to do, well done.”
