Minky pegs

Laura

Tags: family housework motherhood product review

I once told my mum if I ever got excited by housework, particularly washing, then she should call the funny farm!

How little I knew then!

Just today I have been despairing at Matthew’s new white school shirt covered in mud that WON’T WASH OUT!!! (calm down, Laura, inner peace etc etc…)

One element of washing that I really love are my pegs. Sounds a bit weird but utterly true. I picked up a pack of random pegs in the months before moving in 2 years ago (I believe I bought this first set from Aldi). I just liked the colours so popped them in my shopping basket.

Well, they are the best pegs ever! I bought another set from a different supermarket as I realsied I didn’t have enough for the copious amounts of washing I do. All of these other pegs have broken. Every single one within 2 years!

But my Minky pegs are still going strong and none have broken or loosened their grip! I just bought another set from Amazon and they are just as good as the first pack.

The other thing is the bright colours: Zach just loves arranging them!

Making peg patterns! Zach loves arranging things in lines but I keep forcing him to make shapes (flower and star in this pic 🙂 ) #proudmummy #family #beingtogether #familyfun #funseekingkids #instakids #growinguptoofast #stillmybaby #mumblogger #ukblogger #ukparentbloggers #parentingblogger #mbloggers #familyfuntime #learning

These look fab – love the bright colours too! When I move I can’t wait to have a garden – and a washing line. Sad I know! #TriedTested

These are really cool and a lot more vibrant than the old wooden pegs that we are used too! I will have to check them out!

These look really cool, they are much more interesting than wooden pegs that snap easily. I will definitely have to try these. #TriedTested

I LOVE seeing my washing on the line, it’s very sad but true! It’s kind of a homey feeling. My pegs are crap and are constantly snapping, I’ll give these a whirl!

A mama got to have her some brilliant pegs to make the washing less arduous! I do love a colourful peg or two and these ones look fab.

Is it weird that we can get so excited about pegs? 😉 I love to see a line filled with whites.

These look brilliant, Bright coloured pegs are fantastic. When they escape the washing line, it makes them so much easier to find!

I just bought cheap pegs from the corner shop when we moved as I left all mine at the old house and they have been terrible and nearly all snapped. I will have to get some of these as they sound much better than the ones I have x

I think I might give these a try. All my pegs seem to break within a month of getting them. x

I do love a decent peg! I replaced all mine with lovely good quality ones a few years ago but they could now do with being replaced again so I’ll look out for these!

Love the bright colours! I hate when pegs break – especially when it’s your last couple that you need on the line!

Always loved Minky; when we were teenagers we used to drink behind the factory! Their products are always super reliable.

Bright colours are a must when it comes to pegs! That and a cute bag to store them. I haven’t come across these before but will keep an eye on them in the future!
