Diana, depending on where you live, I would maybe add to Wooly's great
suggestion, that it may be a good idea to have one that it water proof.
Where I live, we get a lot of rain. My clothes pegs would be a mess if I
left them hanging on the washlin in a cloth bag made of old jeans. The
springs gets rusty and the wood swells up etc. (this is from experience)
I have my pegs in a plastic bucket that moves in and out the house as
needed.
