Room Renovation: Laundry Room Week 1
It’s my favorite time of year yall, room renovation time! Yes, we did just complete our office room renovation, but we ( okay okay I) really wanted to participate in the fall One Room Challenge! Justin may not be thrilled but he loves me & is willing to pitch in, in exchange for food, terms accepted! For this room renovation, we decided on transforming the laundry room, because quite frankly it’s sad.
See what I’m talking about?
Its just blah & that’s why laundry doesn’t get done often enough, (that’s the excuse I’m going with). I added that cabinet I bought from a garage sale & tried to add wallpaper to the back to make it look more appealing, but it didn’t work. Our door currently swings into the room & takes up a lot of space because it’s too big to fit flush on the wall. So the door will have to go in order to create more space. I do however love the floors so they will stay! They are that tile that looks like wood & they are my favorite part of the room. I just want this room to be one I enjoy going into because I can’t keep ignoring the laundry forever…
This is my vision/mood/dream board for this room:
I really want to make the space more inviting & functional. I would love to have space for a drying rack & possibly a folding table. My main goal, however, is as always, budget friendly!
Heres my list for this project:
- Shiplap Back Wall
- Paint Laundry Room
- Add Open Shelving
- Build Sliding Barn Doors
- Make a Folding Table
- Create Drying Rack
- New Light Fixture
- Make Laundry Room Sign
Not a crazy terrible list, I think it’s definitely doable in the 6 weeks we have to complete this renovation. I can’t wait to get started, I’ll be posting updates each week so be sure to check back! I love hearing from yall so drop me some comments with your own laundry room renovations or dream laundry room wishes!
I cannot wait to see your final reveal. Your wish board looks amazing. Shiplap on the back wall will really make a big impact.
Thanks Colleen! We can’t wait to start!
Wow, I am excited to see the results. I like your ideas. Happy Fall, Kippi
Thanks Kippi! We are very excited about this renovation too!
You have such great ideas — I love your vision for the final laundry room! I can’t wait to see the reveal!
Thanks Amy!
I love your wish board. I’m sure the final reveal will be amazing. Can’t wait to see it!
Thanks Emily!
I am so excited to see how this turns out! I need to try these One Room Challenges!! How motivating.
Absolutely Jaclyn, they are a lot of fun & push you to finish in a good time frame!
I’m looking forward to your reveal! I really love those hanging wire baskets! I’d love these in my mudroom for collecting gloves and hats.
That’s a great idea Jen!
I love your dream board items and the plans you have for the laundry room. I’ve been thinking about re-doing ours. I can’t wait to see the reveal so I can get some good inspiration!
Thanks Jill!
I’m so excited to see your vision board come alive!! I also want to give our laundry room a facelift… Maybe start small with painting the walls and doing a fun pattern on the cabinets
That’s a great idea Jenna! Small changes can really make a big difference!
I love the open shelving AND the chandelier! What a neat light fixture for a laundry room. I think you’ll really enjoy going in there – even to do laundry!
I hope so Andrea or we will be on a clean clothes shortage soon!
I love these ideas they are so helpful to make laundry easier!! They look cute too- fun project in my future!!
Thanks Cassie we are very excited about this project!
I really love your inspiration. We don’t have a laundry room, more like a nook. Our next house is definitely going to have an actual room and I want to decorate it similar to your picks!
Awe thank you Alexis! Our first house only had a closet laundry room, it’s really nice to have an actualy room now.
