Cottage Laundry-room makeover-

The laundry- room is finished.....well almost. I still need to add more art. {going to have Shannon's children help me with that this weekend} But other than a few more little things,  the room is finished.

Remember the Before?

Here is the after-

A little list of what I did-

 

• Painted
• tiled
• removed some cabinet doors
• added new curtains.

I removed two of the cabinet doors- painted the cabinets Ultra white from Dutch Boy.  Added the baskets from Michael's. Put bead-board on the back of apron closet. I also added a square of pebble tile to the bottom of that closet. The hooks were original to the house. The word one, two, three- Shannon made for me. =)

The story behind the making of the curtains-

I had a drop cloth or an old shower curtain that I wanted to turn into curtains for this room....the drop cloth won.

I just hemmed it top and bottom- used a spring tension rod to hang it.  Used some old rope I had on hand to add some character along with the banners left over from the spring event.

 

I was so happy how the cabinet area turned up-

I was lucky enough to find the baskets at Michael's for 50% off....Happy Day.

Fun little chair- art work from Carlee and Preston- a basket, a place to drop things as you come in.

I love how the room turned out----using a lot of what I had----the curtains were free style...just shopped my home.  The art couldn't be any better {when Carlee saw her art hanging on the wall her comment was..."Oh, I'm like a artist."  I plan to have Shannon and Kent's children add to it....the theme this year "draw a picture of the beach."

There you have it my new laundry room-

• colors- Hawaiian Sky, Ultra white- Dutch Boy Paints-
• tile- Dale tiles- white and smoke
• baskets- Michael's
• art- Grandchildren
• everything else- free style-

Come see me at Blissful today
