I have air dried the majority of my clothes for the last several years. My husband and I have always had a clothesline that runs across our living space (it helps when you live in an open loft). It works great, but by doing that we look a little bit like poor college kids. This built-in laundry rack is a perfect DIY solution, especially as we head into sweater season.
We love the idea of trying to use our dryer less and treat our clothes as best as possible. That said, it's not always easy to do — especially if you live somewhere with a hard winter and outdoor clotheslines are out.
This built in custom racking came to us from the Stay Organized Gallery and it's great inspiration for anyone wanting to make over their laundry room. We can even see something like this being built into additional areas of the home, since laundry rooms aren't always this large.
It could be as simple as making a PVC frame, covering it with netting and screwing the frame into cabinet drawer slides. It's a neat solution for those who are tired of clotheslines or hanging things over their bathroom shower bar!

This is really neat! I wonder how the bottom of this cabinet is set up to clean/avoid water dripping from the wet clothes.
I want. I'm a knitter so a lot of my sweaters are handwash dry flat only and I usually do them in a large load and run out of space to dry them flat.
As for the drips, none of my clothes are really wet enough that they drip while drying flat. Even my handwash sweaters get either run through the spin cycle in the washer or rolled in a towel and pressed, they are never drippy wet.
I love this idea!
I really like this idea, but I'm wondering how well it would hold up. You'd have to keep the racks out while the clothes are drying, and they'd just be held up by the one end. Wet clothes, even when they're not soaked, can be on the heavy side, so it seems to me like it'd strain the drawer slides and/or the inner side of the frame. (Not an engineer, so I could be wrong.)
We have a TON of wool sweaters, so this is a neat idea, but our laundry room is in our perpetually dirty, unfinished cement basement, so cute cabinet-y things are not possible. We are going to build a big hanging rack, though, so I can dry more than one sweater at once. I'm hoping for at least four at once - six at once would be better.
