As Aussies, we know that our weather can be unpredictable. One day it could be sunny and bright, and the next minute it might start pouring rain out of nowhere.

This makes drying clothes quite a challenge, especially if you don't have a lot of space in your house or apartment.



So, what's a person supposed to do when they need to wash their clothes but can't hang them outside to dry? This is where this genius Kmart trick comes in handy!

As shared by a member of the Kmart Home Decor & Hacks Australia group on Facebook, all you need is one of the retailer's Deluxe Laundry Airing Stations – which retails for just $79 – and some creative thinking.

The woman said that she and her husband deconstructed the airer and attached the parts with the 'hangers' to the wall of their laundry room.



'A Kmart trick for the rainy days,' the original poster wrote, along with a photo of the setup.

'The “x” frame of the airer just unscrewed and my husband cut the top rack off.'

'If you want to try to recreate this, I advise using a chuck key to remove the racks.'



The post has captured the attention of more than 3,700 members, with many commenting about how inventive the tip is.

One user wrote: 'Okay, that is the first true hack I’ve seen in here in a good long while. Just brilliant!'

'I could put one half in the laundry and the other next to the swimming pool low enough for the kids,' another said.

A third chimed in: 'Fantastic idea! I have one of these that I use in my very small courtyard. Might have to see if I can mount to a wall or fence.'



Others asked the woman whether the hangers can be folded as it seemed like the setup takes a lot of space.

The original poster then replied to these queries with a photo of the folded airers.



'The best part is that you can always fold them when you don't use them so you can save space,' the woman wrote.
