Laundry Room Makeover Revealed!

December 27, 2016 By Chelsea Lipford Wolf 5 Comments

The laundry room is done, done, done! So that means it’s time for a full reveal of the space with everything decorated and pretty and not at all how it will be in real life! Ha! There’s also a ton of sources at the bottom in case you’re looking for similar items for your home!

Washer and Dryer Side of Completed Laundry Room

This side of the room is where the biggest changes took place. Besides the immediate change from painting the walls, I created a drop zone for backpacks, updated a thrifted laundry cart, hung cabinets above the washer and dryer, painted the washer and dryer, created a ledge and installed a glass tile backsplash.

Here’s what it looked like before:

Just a tad different…

The cabinets serve their purpose as overflow pantry storage well.

And the washer and dryer are looking a lot fresher.

Oh and I can’t forget the lovely repurposed laundry detergent container.

Stepping back a little you can see the wood-toned light fixture I installed to replace the old fluorescent.

The opposite side of the room is nothing to scoff at either. The before picture really shows the lack of storage that was available before I got started.

And after building a DIY laundry sorter and hanging a cube organizer on the wall, it’s way more functional and stylish.

The bins in the cubes are great for hiding smaller household items like light bulbs or batteries!

It definitely took me a lot longer to complete this from start to finish than I had originally thought and planned. It’s totally different working on a project that isn’t in your own home. Also there’s that little 1 year old cutie that slows me down. But the results make it worth it!

I’ve been citing sources as I’ve shared individual project tutorials. But I’m including them below as well so everything is in one spot! If there’s anything I missed that you’d like to know about, comment and I’ll let you know!

And a big thank you to Moen, Amerock, RYOBI, Aspect, and Kichler for donating tools and materials for this project!

Didn’t mean for this to be #ASMR but here we are Didn’t mean for this to be #ASMR but here we are!🤷🏼‍♀️ I bought this orchid 15 months ago to use the flowers in our hair for my sister’s wedding. I’ve already repotted it once and it’s bloomed 3-4 times! Time to do it again with a pretty new pot that matches our new kitchen cabinets!🤩
.
.
Steps to repot an orchid:
1-large pot without drainage holes
2-plastic pot slightly smaller with holes
3-trim if needed so plastic pot is at or below outside pot
4-add layer of orchid specific potting mix (it looks like bark!)
5-add orchid, fill in around roots with more bark- don’t forget to add some mix under the leaves!
6-to water, soak bark and fill up outside pot, rinse the leaves too!
7-let sit for 5-10 minutes, then drain and dry the outside of your pot.
8-set in place and enjoy!🌷
New laundry, who dis? Our laundry room was a BLANK New laundry, who dis? Our laundry room was a BLANK slate after the kitchen renovation left it reconfigured too. So Dad and I tackled simple projects that make this space functional and of course visually pleasing too!👏🏻The full project airs this weekend on @todayshomeowner!

I love that the cabinets and hardware match what we have in the kitchen since the spaces are right next to each other! Synergy!
