HOUSE TO HOME MAKEOVER: LAUNDRY ROOM

One of my goals for this year was to try and really focus on making our house a home. We've been here for a bit but with major life changes happening every year (new jobs, new kids..) the attention to the details of really personalizing the house and making it "ours" has not really moved along. So I decided to pick a little corner of the house and move out from there.

Laundry is one of my least favorite chores. I'm pretty certain that (like Gremlins) they multiply when water is added. So it seems that I'm taking out (and having to fold) more than I put into this washing machine.. But I digress.

We actually painted this room (incredible hulk?) green when we first moved in. Green is my favorite color and I wouldnt be brave enough to do that in any other room in the house. I REALLY like it. Its bright and cheery and helps me feel a bit better about whats about to go down when I open that door (loads of it:-)

A dear friend made me a lovely skirt for the laundry basin (sink) and I can hide a few cleaning products underneath and in the bins under the washer/dryer. 


Munchkin and H are (not so) secret Star Wars junkies and love to do these Lego sets together. For now this is their home. 

Laundry still isnt my favorite thing to do, but for now this is my new favorite room in the house.


I cant believe school starts in less than a month. I'd like to whip this little space into shape - An organized space for her and the little brother to color and read, and play. 

Do you have any plans to spruce up some rooms soon? I'd love to hear all about it.
xx,
Bunnie

How did I not see this comment?!! That makes me mad. At any rate. Its been a super fun space to do the dreary task of laundry this past year. I've switched out the rug to a navy chevron. i have a problem with playing musical rugs in my house:-)
