With spring in the air (well, the sun’s been out for three days running!), we’re suddenly thinking bare legs (well, thinking about them – instant bronzing guide coming up soon), likewise flip-flops (neglected heels alert) and laundry flapping in the breeze (rather than drying to a crisp on radiators). Suitable for popping up anywhere (and it would be great for hols/camping), Cath Kidston’s Travel Washing Line with Coloured Pegs (a snip at £5) – available at heathcote-ivory.com – is 3 metres long and part of the bright and pretty The Washing Line range.
nonstop tips: hang shirts, tees and other tops upside-down, to avoid getting peg marks where they show. To prevent more delicate items losing their shape, try putting these on a hanger and peg this onto the line (if it will support it).
