Laundry Room Makeover – Home By Heidi

Other than a few accessories and a rug (which I can’t seem to find…YET 🙂

The laundry room is DONE!!! I honestly can’t believe I am dealing with the same square footage as I did before. I feel like I have added tons of space to the room without even taking out a wall.

Here are a few before pictures…

Here is what it looks like TODAY!

Here is my 7 foot custom magnetic board!! LOVE! 🙂

Sorry about the pictures, they’re not great I know.

It’s such a small space with no natural light, so it was a bit of a challenge.

I had a long list of MUSTS for the space, and I do believe I accomplished everything on my list.

Here are just a few things on my list

~A place to hold dirty clothes waiting to be washed

~ A designated spot for kids socks.

I figure having a drawer in the laundry area would be a perfect spot to find socks…it’s on your way out the door:)

~Room for my mop, broom, vacuum, iron and the BIG one…The ironing board!

~ I wanted a place I could store seasonal dishes

~ I needed a place to store random things like the shoe shine basket, and extra rags, sewing kit etc

~ A hanging rod for wet clothes

~I also needed a reference place that I could put all my kids papers and reminders of upcoming activities

and the yearly calendar.

~ A place that I could store my laundry soap, fabric softener, bleach etc… that was conveniently close to the washer.

I NOW have MORE than enough storage, whereas before, I really didn’t have any. I even have a sock drawer for my boys . . . we were always chasing around for socks to get them on the bus on time. I can’t even start to tell you how great this new feature is 🙂

And Here is my FAVORITE part of the entire room…

I now have a” REAL” space for all my brooms, mops and ironing board!

HAPPY DAY!!!!!
