So. It’s that time. There is one more room in
the LMB household that is done, for now.
This room was dark little closet that we rarely
went into, I mean let’s face it, It’s the laundry room.
You walk in, throw the clothes in, turn it on, & walk
out. I wanted a lovely little laundry room that
I could leave the door open & want to show it off
instead of hide it. This room is right off of our kitchen,
so it gets seen a lot!
Before this room was more like a dark closet with no
character…
It’s crazy what a different wall color & some accessories can
do to a lovely little space…

& after…..

& after…

For extra organization we installed a shelf above the washer and dryer.
It was very simple. We simply installed two shelf brackets & cut
a board to the length we wanted & painted it black.
So there you have it! Our laundry room so far.
I’m really happy with it & I do not mind doing laundry in
here at all! I also keep the door open now

i LOVE it. and that light is so great! i also have a big crush on your scale!
Thank you so much Kristi!!!
I love that little scale.. one of my best vintage purchases ever!
Oh, it is darling!!! I love the vintage/industrial feel to it!! I think putting the detergent in the glass jar is so cute!! I think I’d be looking for laundry to do just to go in there and be around such cuteness!!!
Great job!!!!
Thank you so much Laura.. I really wanted it to have that old industrial cottage feel.. Laundry doesn’t seem half as bad now
But I still hate folding!!
Love this room!! Super cute!! Can I do my laundry at your house?
Bring it on over!!

Haha thank you! My grandma gave me that little antique turtle.. He’s my favorite!

Love this! I’m so inspired now to give my laundry room a face-lift, starting with a shelf like yours over my washer and dryer.
I’m so glad you were inspired Terri… That little shelf is very handy!
This looks awesome! My laundry room is awful…one day I will redo it
Thank you Rebecca!! Sometimes the laundry room is the last room you think to re-do…

Your laundry room looks great! I did a shelf like that on the back of my stove. It sure is handy. Great job! Thanks for sharing at the All Star Block Party.
O that’s a great idea! A shelf on the back of the stove would be very handy! Thank you!
It looks fantastic Liz Marie! Instead of a dreaded space that you see into, it’s beautiful and soft! I love it!
Thanks Suzan.. That was my goal!! Thanks for your sweet comment
Hi Liz! Love it! I like because it’s not cluttered with stuff and what you did put in it is so very neat, love the light and that black antique piece especially:)
Thanks Rondell! Yes, the clutter was killing me!!
Your laundry room looks so good after your transformation. I love what you did for the light fixture.

Love the laundry room. I like how you put the shelf up on top of the washer and dryer. I need a way to hide my cords in my laundry room. Thanks again for sharing.
Super cute space! I would love for you to come link up your blog to my Get social Sunday link party!

I really like the makeover! I especially love that the changes were subtle yet made a big difference in the space. That shelf is so charming and I love the new storage area and accessories. You did a fabulous job on this room!
Sharon @ mrs. hines class
I’m loving your little shelf just over the machines and the way you decorated it, with that cute scale, which I love! New storage area is my motto, I just did mine as I was losing great space in the back wall of the machines too. Loving your redo, it’s great! I just dropped by from the Before and After Party!

Love your blog! I became your newest follower!

Wow this looks awesome! I love how you were able to make it a cuter room without having to do a lot to it. This was the most clicked on link on my link party! I’m featuring this tomorrow!
Liz Marie,
