WHETHER you have a small home or can’t use your garden due to the Baltic weather, no one likes the sight of their washing on display. But one cleaning enthusiast has just the trick, and it means that no space will be taken up when hanging your clothes.

The woman, who is known as ‘thesimpsonthree’ on TikTok, shared a video on her social media page, and people are loving it. She explained that her wife invented the “natty little gadget” which hangs just above her banister. The cleaning fan explained: “So she took the side of a cot and put it over the bannister in that bit of stairs that no one uses.

“And then, voilà! It is an indoor clothes rail. “We use it literally all the time throughout winter. “We haven't got those annoying clothes horses.”. “We can use this. It's fantastic.”. The TikToker created the device by using the side of a baby cot, which has wooden bed guards to prevent the child from getting out.

She then balanced it across the bannister so it is out of the way but allows you to hang clothes from it. Her video gained a lot of attention with many people rushing to the comments section to share their thoughts. One wrote: “Simple but effective.”.
A second commented: “That's great and the house will smell nice too.”. Adding more to the idea, a third suggested: “Mum done that, and put a pulley system so we can get it low enough to hang sheets. "Then pull [we] it up so it’s put [out] the way so you can get down the stairs.”.
