Vintage Thingies Thursday ~ Laundry Day

One of my motto's is "If it's ugly, cover it up with something cute!". So I took my own advice and covered up some stained walls and exposed pipes in my laundry room.
I had been collecting cute vintage doll clothes and baby clothes for a few YEARS (yes years) and finally put them to use on this clothes line with mini vintage clothes pins.






Problem solved, and cutely too, I might add!
Don't hang me out to dry--show me YOUR vintage thingies! Join in at Colorado Lady's blog every Thursday!

    I love doll clothes and vintage childrens clothes! Very cute idea! I did that once to dry some I had bought but I like being able to enjoy them all the time!

    Great idea! There is something about itty-bitty stuff that I love, so of course I think itty-bitty clothes above the washer and dryer is adorable!

    What a great idea! I have some really ugly exposed pipes but I never would have thought of that. Thanks for the inspiration. I love your old doll clothes.

    What a clever idea, I have that same laundry situation myself and have been wondering how to 'fix' it without that $300 from the handyman!
