Laundry Room Reveal

June 29, 2020

The laundry room reveal is FINALLY here! I tackled this during our quarantine time. I am so happy that I jumped at it and got it done. Calling our laundry room a “ROOM” is pretty ambitious 🙂 it really is just a laundry closet. But even the smallest rooms deserve love! The before pictures are when we got the keys to the house. Immediately when we moved in we ripped up the linoleum floors and put down tile, painted all the trim & cabinets and put a “greyish-blue” on the wall. It was a paint mishap story that will have to wait to be told for another day but trust me TEST ALL YOUR PAINT before you buy – ha! But it still cleaned the room up big time!

PROGRESS PICTURES:

The progress picture shows what it looked like the last 3 years…nothing bad but nothing to write home about. My goal with this room refresh was to brighten, upgrade, become a tad more functional & make me smile. It has accomplished all of those! I also wanted to hide our utilities so I put up a shelf with some fabric for easy access but it hides the eyesore of the plugs. I also wanted some skinny laundry hampers that could easily fit in our space and found some AMAZING ones on Amazon that are at a great price point & super functional! They are on the smaller side but are exactly what I needed for my small space.

The wallpaper was a huge risk for me and I am so glad that I chose it. It is a gorgeous print and looks amazing on the wall. It is advertised as taupe but as some of the reviews suggest it does lean more on the grey side. This was my second time using removable wallpaper and I can tell you this. I will never use another brand again! NuWallpaper was SO EASY to use! I loved it so much I immediately found another print for our playroom (reveal coming soon!) If you have been on the fence about trying removable wallpaper don’t be afraid to tackle it! It is a pretty easy and quick DIY that immediately changes a space! Who doesn’t love instant gratification? 🙂
