Basically, you'll need a broomstick handle and two over-the-door hanging racks from Dollar Tree (or your favorite discount retailer). Simply attach one rack to each end of the broomstick using zip ties, then trim the excess zip tie material. Once you place both racks on the edge of your fence, you'll be able to hang things like wet towels and floaties. So clever.
