Laundry Room Mini-Makeover

Are your getting ready for Fall time?  Well, I am!

I've been getting "primed" for Fall

In fact, my laundry room got all primed

The picture below shows you how my laundry room used to look. It got a full makeover about a year ago, at that time, brown paint was one of those remnants I wanted to get rid of, so that's what I used.
Lately I'd been getting tired of that brown, this small room/passageway was dark, with no windows
white paint was the solution for a fresher look.

The brown color was removed with two coats of Kilz Max primer and two coats of Behr Pure White.

Now the room is bright :)

 The old light was also changed.

A new coat of paint on that chandy and the difference to the room is amazing!

Just in time for back to school a chalkboard was built to replace the cork board and the deal is sealed for a fresh, new room.

  23. I would love your laundry room. Actually, I would love any laundry room. I share the laundry with my creative space, 1 car, 1 motorcycle, and 4 bicycles. I make it work and enjoy being in the space, but it doesn't look anything as nice as yours.

  49. Gorgeous transformation. I recently redid our laundry room, too, and there's something about having a bright, beautiful space that makes laundry more bearable.

    Of course, there are still days I wish we were nudists! I wish a laundry room makeover came with someone to do all the laundry for me.
