When we first moved into our house I never thought about making our laundry room {cutsie}. I mean its just a laundry room. And then I got on Pinterest. And I saw all the adorable, awesome laundry rooms and mine was lacking. So little by little I picked up things. A chocolate brown rug here and cute washboard there. Until I could finally see some sort of design coming together in my head.
Picked up this washboard at a garage sale for $2. It was a honey wood color and said "Laundry & Soap 5 Cents". But I despised the color so I spray painted it white.
Then the color of the actual washboard looked horrible after I painted it white. So I used my Polka Dot Parade blue/white paper from Stampin Up to cover it up. Along with chocolate brown ribbon along the edges. I used my Big Shot and Tattered Florals die to cut out the flowers for an extra element of design.
{Perfect little holder for all the odds and end that I find in the wash}
Here is a "before picture of the room.
And here are some "after" shots
A friend of mine is making me a vinyl decal for this that says "Laundry 10 cents" in chocolate brown
Found these perfect brown canvas laundry bins at Target. They were exactly what I wanted to hold/hide stuff. One has beach towels, one has blankets and the other miscellaneous.
I spray painted clothes pins white and added some paper and embellishments to match the "theme" of the room. And to identify whats in each bin.
I have this vinyl wall decal {but i white} coming soon from Etsy...
