[@franpie2264]

Great idea but please tell Julie to peg the hangers or else the wind will blow them away :)

[@StillWaters56]

@@AmericanViscountess Gaia is so right, you also need to peg the hangers "clip the hanger" to the line. Have a wonderful weekend

[@theresedignard4267]

Yes on clipping, otherwise they get blown together on the line. Pinning on the leeward side. Also depends on fabric, as some fabric gives you “wings” when hung on hangers. I always drape my clothing over the top to the air pit line. It helps stop the sag and gives and even line to pin. I never need to flip them either. Just takes a half hour to one hour more to dry.

[@StitchingIsMyHappyPlace]

You can buy little clips that the hangers go through, nothing blows away.

[@AmericanViscountess]

Thank you so much!

[@milkshake123abc]

So fascinated by your laundry adventure. Hang shirts and dresses by the bottom hems so you don’t get marks from the pins on the top of the garment. Also three pins can be used for things hanging next to each other. Saves on pins. Just overlap items next to each other and pin them together. You can do that all the way down the line. Hope that makes sense. Sorry if it doesn’t. You can also hang your clothespin bag on the line and move it along as you pin stuff. Makes it a little more convenient than reaching down to get them from the floor. You’re doing great. Love your Italian village. So beautiful there. Your poor lungs! You must’ve been worn out from that ordeal. 😆😆

[@AmericanViscountess]

Such great tips! Thank you!

[@MsGringa24]

She is so cute, describing the challenges of hanging clothes. I was born in Brazil and sadly they still do this only washers and hang on clothes line (well I didn't, we had maids not rich just everyone has one )

👍🏻👍🏻hanging laundry. Thank you for sharing your adventures. It's beautiful there.

[@monalisadavinci7076]

I grew up hanging laundry in my backyard (so relaxing), so am familiar with being careful regarding certain colors and fabrics in direct sunlight, along with the length of time in the sun. But your clothes, etc. will last longer drying them naturally than in a dryer.

[@AmericanViscountess]

You bet!

[@mararoy5274]

The bathroom cabinet dresser and top, is absolutely beautiful! I love the lights installed at the doors,too.

[@maureenb6095]

[@AmericanViscountess]

Thank you so much!

[@reginamurch7750]

You hung your dress across the line at the bust line. Perhaps you will have a fold line where you don’t want one. Try putting things over the line where you wouldn’t mind a fold.

[@LCNWA]

Julie, FYI way back b4 cloths dryers our ancestors only had the sun. My father only wanted the he slept on sheets dried on line till he left planet! Sun dries, disinfects helps to get stains out etc etc. Ask around there your neighbors help guide the learning process but it worked for millennia.

[@sophiasurgis2130]

I live in SW Florida and sheets definitely are on my line. A tradition handed down from my amazing Grandmother. She pressed them, we slept in cold rooms, with these amazing sheets and homemade quilts.

[@monalisadavinci7076]

Right, disinfects and also smells so much nicer than out of a dryer.

[@lizspurgeon9933]

I live in Australia and we are experts at hanging out washing. I hang all my light weight pieces of clothing on hangers attached to the line with a peg. No creases, lines or need to iron. Try it xx I can’t weight to visit Italy again 🥲

Hang the pillowcase the other way, so the opening is at the bottom and the air can flow in from below. Can't believe I'm saying this, but you are right there is an art to hanging clothes etc. My friend always colour coded her pegs when hanging the laundry, I don't go that far, but it looks pretty.

[@marilynthomson9564]

Julie, a little tip for hanging blouses and shirts. Get some plastic hangers and hang them on the hangers and then hang the hangers on the line it’s so much easier and it takes up less space. also you could hang your dress on a hanger. I always hang my clothes on the line I’ve chosen not to buy a dryer .

[@RosatheSilvermuse]

When hanging your clothes, we always hung the second piece corner with the corner of the first to conserve space on the line to allow for a larger load. Also we had a bag that snapped onto the line to contain the clothes pins. We also had a wooden stick with a notch in one end to lift the line up when hanging heavy clothes.

[@sharronandrews7675]

It’s fun to watch your progress!

[@Patch259]

I love your videos. They’re so comforting to watch. Laundry tip - When I hang my laundry to dry (because I wear a lot of linen) I put my clothes on hangers with clips between the hangers to hold them in place. Then I put them straight back into the closet! In the winter (I’m in Canada) I hang still hang my wet clothes on hangers but I place them above a dehumidifier. This dries them very quickly. ❤

[@Italiana911]

Julie, your lamp is beautiful, and looks like it was made for your house. All of your dresses are so pretty. 👗 As regards your washing. If you plan to stay in Italy during inclement weather, I resisted buying a tumble dryer (asciugatrice) for years, on moving to Italy because they’re so expensive here. However I found slimline ones on Amazon for a decent price, (I didn’t want a larger size) and took the gamble of buying a less than perfect ‘used’ one. The only fault that I could find was that the instructions were photocopied. 💁🏻‍♀️ Really enjoying your renovation vlog, as I’ve done it all myself. Builders in Italy are so good on the whole. 😊 In bocca al lupo! x

[@AmericanViscountess]

Thanks for this! Will def. look into a slimline dryer if I'm there over the winter for sure. :-)

[@texanadeb]

Also check out on Amazon BESy Retractable Clothesline for those rainy days. Found this in a B&B bathroom over the tub area. It will support up to 20lbs of wet laundry but be sure if you try another brand that it has a steel cable. You mount the cable holder on one side wall and the little hook on the opposite sidewall. The whole thing is very small. With a stand alone tub, that configuration probably won't work but I'm sure you could figure out some other place. I loved your show on Bravo and I am so excited to follow your new journey❣️

[@PettyMelody2009]

I'm super jealous. I would enjoy walking around that flea market all day everyday.

[@machellep1]

First, laundry doesn’t have to be in the sun. Colors will dry in the shade. The pillow cases were upside down, opening to the ground. Second, a hair dryer or vacuum with the hose in reverse will blow up the air mattress. But your determination was heart warming. Italy is lovely , but Americans are still having trouble getting over seas. Lots of restrictions and they are considering more because of the Delta variant. Watch your neighbors hang their laundry and you will learn how it’s done. Loved the quick video to see how things are progressing.

[@pamjudge9691]

You can hang white things the correct side out, the sun will bleach them crispy white, I never use bleach for white sheets. I love your infectiousness, you're living many peoples' dream! Lovely vlog!

[@AmericanViscountess]

So good to know! Thank you!

[@courtneybougie7904]

I love these videos, Julie. So, another laundry tip for hanging, is to hang each piece end to end using leas clips or pins. Hang the pillow case, then hang another side by side and take the second clip to hang that one, too. Keep on going from there. Some may argue that the bits hanging together and sharing a pin, don’t dry properly, but I have always done it this way. Maybe because I had four children and endless laundry. No issues. Love your clothing, too. Like they’re made for you!

[@strugglingtohomeschool9172]

As s southern woman your "swoosh, kick and squat" while doing laundry was impressive. lol I always use a laundry apron. It has a large pocket on the front that i keep my clothes pins.

[@mawmawd627]

Julie just a quick tip, if you have clothes that you really, really like, just dry them inside because the sun can be so strong that can even penetrate the inside fibers, and also if you have whites that you like a lot as well, dry them inside (if you have the space) because the sun can give them a yellowish undertone. Purchase a drying table (they are worth it, use them all the time) for sweaters and things you don’t want to stretch.

Hi, you can use a hair dryer set on cool to blow up your mattress. Hang your colorful clothing after 4pm so the sun doesn't bleach the colors out. Use hydrogen peroxide to remove blood from clothing and if your can get Dawn dish soap use it to remove most stain out of clothing. Especially oil stains. Best wish.

[@lqqkitslory]

If you download google translate, you can speak any word or phrase into the phone and it immediately translates and speaks it out loud, so it’s easy to make yourself understood! It also works in reverse, so if you hold it towards someone speaking Italian, it’ll immediately translate it back to you! Also, if you need to read something, click the camera in the app and just point it at the text and you’ll see the print in English. It’s really handy! Good luck!

[@maggiesmith8665]

You can buy inflatable mattresses with a pump built in. Just plug it in and it'll self inflate. Also, a foot pump is much quicker too, if you want to keep the already purchased inflatable mattress. Love your tours and shared experiences. I'm inspired to hang my laundry outside, more often. 🙂
