Running a household is much easier and more successful when you have the right tools -- such as a proper drying rack. Using a drying rack is eco-friendly, as it cuts down on electric dryer use, and it's great for drying fine washables. Also, a drying rack is versatile and can be used for things such as drying fresh pasta.

Martha found an antique rack years ago and has been using it ever since. In fact, she loves the design of the piece so much that when she saw that it was beginning to fall apart from being used so much, she asked Thomas Eberharter, our company's head of design and fabrication, to make a prototype for her. This wonderful drying rack is large in size, sturdy, and folds flat for easy storage -- and you can make it at home by downloading the instructions below!
