This is such a clever idea! I've seen all kinds of projects done with baby gates and cribs, but this is a first! -
This is brilliant. I will have to keep this in mind. We don't have a dryer, and always seem to be in need of drying space. Thanks for sharing, Erica. -
How did you come up with this? Very inventive. -
Dee - I saw the baby gates available on Freecycle and snapped them up. My initial plan was to make trellises for cucumbers out of them. They were sitting outside (in the rain, naturally!) and then I just had a flash that I could use them to hang my son's diapers for an indoor line-dry solution. I ran right outside and gathered them up and dried them off. :) -
Excellent upcycling project! Thanks so much for sharing it with us! -
Funny how we get our inspiration-and how wonderful when we can make it work.

This is really an excellent idea....but like most things I do, I have to give it a little change...LOL Since I don't need a clothes dryer...but I could sure sure a place to Hang hanging items while I'm unloading the dryer! also I could see this being a fabulous tool for crafters that have a lot of strings of Beads and/or ribbons and such for people that sew...really a million ideas for this...Thanks so much for the great idea! -
That is one of the neatest things I have seen in a long time!! How smart! Good job. -
WONDERFUL idea!!! I'll have to get my old safety gates out of the attic! Thanks for sharing. -
cant you sing....AAAWWWWSSOOOMMMEE!!!! this is a great idea, and I have a crib in my attic!! -
What a great idea.....it's so wonderful when something as simple as than can be recycled into something so useful!! -
I hung mine on my son's wall and now hang the "hanging" clothes on it. Before, we'd forget about wearing the button shirts; now he picks them all the time. I just had to buy different hangers so they hang flat. -

Thanks everyone for your kind words. Glad it is an idea people can adapt to their own needs. :)

I just wanted you to know how much we love this drying rack! We stumbled upon it back in March when we noticed some traffic coming from your site to our ladder drying rack! Small world! - J -
This would make an awesome drying rack for herbs and flowers. I had a bumper crop crop of tarragon, basis, and oregano and ran out of places to put them. My drying screens were all full of tomatoes and peppers. Excellent idea and great job at putting it together. -
ty for awesome idea. just perfect for inside air dry instead of outside. no worry about bird droppings. smoke odors on clothes from someone to burn trash outside. -
Genious! -
Neato! Would save me thousands in dry clean bills! -
I have a small furnace vent I can hang one over to dry extra fast!!
