IN THE LAUNDRY ROOM


It has been almost two years since we remodeled our laundry room.
Our old washer and dryer set broke down on New Year's Eve 2010 withing two
 hours of each other, no joke!!! So we found ourselves shopping for a new set
on New Years Day. Crazy!

At that time, we just threw all caution to the wind and decided to just
 upgrade the whole room. 
I don't have a before picture.
( never thought of taking a picture of our old ugly laundry room)
But all we had in there was a ten year old washer and dryer set, 
a builder's metal shelf over it and a plastic mop sink. 
The rest on the room was empty.

We added a new washer and dryer set,top and bottom cabinets with 
new hardware, installed a counter, utility sink and new faucet, 
added shelving to the wall, new light fixture and decor items.

This was the fastest project we have ever done! LOL
The whole room was finished in about three days.

Since then, it has pretty much stayed the same.




Just recently I added some new little items, a cute picture on the
 top shelf and a small jar from Dollar Tree with some clothes pins.


That is a picture of my "Angel" just being cute. :)
 










I also added to the top cabinet this pretty plate I found at HL.
It is part of their Fall collection for this year, so, it is official, 
my first Fall decor item is up! LOL







 The truth is that I haven't felt any need to do anything else to this space.
I am happy with the way it turned out from the beginning.
Now, I just wish I didn't have to spent a trillion hours in this room every week!!! LOL

 I hope everyone is enjoying their week.
Mine has been full of chores, painting projects that I just can't seem to be able to finish and very early in the morning yard work. :(
So, I am very tired and ready for the weekend! 

Thank you all for taking the time to visit.
Your comments always make my day!

Always changing


You think you are finished with one room and then it happens! :)
You come across another decor item or an inspiration picture
and changes happen again.

I am working on a piece of furniture makeover now and it is 
not quite finished yet, so meanwhile, I wanted to share with you
other changes we have made to my daughter's room.

A few weeks ago she found these two beautiful bird pictures to go with
her Pottery Barn bed set that she purchased a few months ago, so she decided they would look better over her bed instead of what she originally had up there.










And that inspired her to change the night table and
add a little more color to the room.
We had some paint left from when we painted her flowers vase, 
so that is what we used.









The golden yellow color goes very well with the bedding and throw pillows.
She is now quite satisfied with the changes. :)
Now, off to finish my other project!

I hope you all are having a good week. 
Thank you for your visit!
