How can I put up a creative clothesline?

We live in a quaint middle class neighborhood. Our yard has either high shrubs or a 6' fence surrounding it. I'm old school & would like a clothes line to use occasionally.I do not wish to have a round one that can be purchased. I'm familiar with the old fashion type. Any creative ideas would be appreciated.

Robin...my husband made mine using metal fence posts & welding one across top..into a T.
I have two with 3 lines. He drilled 3 holes on each end post & used a large eye screw through each hole to attach the clothesline.. l'm old fashion too & love mine especially for linens & curtains. Good luck
I have one mounted on the backside of the garage that winds out to hook onto a metal pole with a clip to hold in place..... best one I ever had.... mine is much older but looks like this and the clip is mounted to a steel pole.... https://www.amazon.com/Whitmor-5-Line-Retractable-Dryer/dp/B075MRJXY1/ref=sr_1_51?crid=1LUTRODH4ROI0&keywords=clothesline+outdoor+retractable&qid=1581900776&sprefix=clothes+line%2Caps%2C287&sr=8-51
My last clothesline was one that was in a reel that hid the line when not in use. It worked well for over twenty years before we moved. I will see if I can find a link for you. Meanwhile, take a look :

Hi Robin, yes I hang my sheets out in the summer and nothing smells better than a fresh lined dries laundry. Hope this gives you some ideas. I love the one with lattice on the ends. Enjoy the fresh smells and cheap natural dryer of the wind and sun.

You could get the pull out tipe and when your done put it back it attaches to the wall and it is on a spring when you need it pull it out and clip on the wall hang clothing then when done take it down and it goes back inside
I used to use the retractable type, too. I wouldn't call it creative, but I also never worried about the kids getting hung up on it while not in use.
