I love the energy savings....but I don't like how if it is too humid/not windy or sunny enough/too cloudy my clothes won't dry before it gets dark....so drying in the dryer is easier and that is what I do. If the weather is amazing I'll hang my clothes outside though - plus, the sun bleaches out stains! yay!!Anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16483641233177919179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-562197752166850400.post-56066999963689021862009-09-25T16:19:19.457-07:002009-09-25T16:19:19.457-07:00I have done a whole lot of line drying over the ye...I have done a whole lot of line drying over the years... but its been a dryer for at least ten years or more.<br /><br />I prefer the dryer.

Everyone I know line dries their clothes as soon as they can in the spring, through until it's too dark and wet to be worth while. The winters are mostly spent drying clothes over radiators or bannisters, or in bathrooms. Some of us have tumble dryers, or washer dryers but I think most of us put off using them unless you REALLY have to. Partly because they're so bad for the environment, but mostly just because they cost so much to run!<br />I honestly hadn't realised that there were people on a sunny, breezy day who still preferred to use a tumble dryer!BaronessBlackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11429480086121643083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-562197752166850400.post-85967951150736106432009-09-25T06:24:15.326-07:002009-09-25T06:24:15.326-07:00Can you say Bounce dryer bar?

And I've never noticed anything that I hang outside coming in stiff, but that's probably because there's ALWAYS a wind at my parents' house. Plus I find hanging out laundry weirdly fun.<br /><br />However, my sister, who shares a house with my parents, is saving up money for a dryer, because besides the obvious problems of trying to dry things in the winter, she doesn't like clothespin marks on her clothes, and apparently she's had to deal once or twice with having to clean bird poop off a nice shirt.<br /><br />So maybe if I didn't have the option of a dryer, I would suddenly find myself missing it more.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-562197752166850400.post-60217621044022996242009-09-25T05:09:23.420-07:002009-09-25T05:09:23.420-07:00i've never tried the line drying method...thou...i've never tried the line drying method...though when i was a kid i remember our house helpers in indonesia air dried our clothes. i read somewhere that the reason the clothes are stiff is b/c we add too much soap in the wash. hmmm...maybe so, but like you i think i prefer sticking them in the dryer :)Prastihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02528936736984726306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-562197752166850400.post-64454449903577088812009-09-25T04:04:55.944-07:002009-09-25T04:04:55.944-07:00I am probably one of those people who romanticize ...I am probably one of those people who romanticize line drying my clothes.
