Hanging clothes to dry on a chain

I've worked out a fantastic way to hang my clothes on hangers to dry. In winter on or on rainy days you can't let them sit too close together because the air can't get between them. I know you can use a peg to clip the hangers to an ordinary clothes line; I know you can buy special devices to prevent sliding; but this is much simpler! It's also a good idea if you're tall and constantly running into low-hanging clothes lines strung around the garage or deck. What I did was take a piece of lightweight metal chain, the kind used to hang decorative lights and such, and hook it over two nails so it sits right up at ceiling height. Then I thread the thin metal hook of the clothes hangers through the chain's loops. Cheap, easy, effective. :)
