You can make drying racks from a range of old items at home like a ladder, a crib, and even a rectangular or square frame and ropes. If you are using something that already has multiple horizontal rods, like a ladder, it becomes easy. You have to look for two poles through which the two ends of the ladder can be attached. On the other hand, if you are using a square or rectangular frame, you have to tie ropes inside it horizontally, keeping enough spaces in between. Now attach one rope each on all the corners and take them towards the top to make a nice hanger. Whichever way you prepare the stand, make sure it is sturdy enough to hold wet clothes.
