Een kind kan de was doen

'A child can do the laundry'

Heleen (the Netherlands) sent this postcard for my little collection of Clotheslines. It is a cleverly reused postcard. Originally, it was sent in the 90s (the original stamp is from 1993), to notify the recipients that the sender's phone number had changed.

Heleen wrote over the first message. However, in order to keep the original stamp, she put the postcard in a transparent plastic bag, and stuck the new stamps on the bag. And it arrived safe and sound!

  1. It's autumn and pouring rain here now, hard to imagine laundry hanging outside! :)

    1. I've just hung my clothes outside, to take advantage of the wind :)
