Hey y'all! Hope your weekend is going well! We are suppose to have some severe storms later on today but hopefully they won't be as bad as predicted. Praying for all those in the path none the less! We haven't been up to much around here the past few days other than a Costco trip.With that being said I really do not have anything new to post about so I thought that I would go back and see what post of mine has been the most popular since I started blogging in May 2009. Turns out it is our laundry room! I would have thought that maybe it would have been our floor reno or the guest bathroom but nope it is our laundry room!:) I didn't include this pic in the original post so I thought that I would add it now. Here is what our laundry room looked like before we moved in. I had the builder move the cabinets over because I didn't like them right in your face when you walked in the room and because I thought that they looked better centered over the washer and dryer. Now on to the original post which posted back in November of 2010! |
Welcome, so glad you decided to stop by! I am joining in on several linky parties this week because I am soo excited to share with y'all my laundry room. Why my laundry room you may be wondering!? Because it is the keeper of a fabulous piece I just finished giving new life to! If ya wanna see how our laundry room looked like before you can go here. It is quite a transformation on a very little budget and with really very little effort involved. |
This is my fave doorstop ever! I purchased it at HobLob in the clearance isle sometime last year. I think I paid all of $3 for it. |
Loving my lil' tray. I still need to make a label for the detergent though. |
Even though the top shows sooo much wear and tear I decided to just sand it down and re stain it with some walnut stain. I wanted to keep some of its old charm. |
I decided on the bottom to do a contrasting knob. They are very heavy and a steal at just $2.50 a knob! Not quite sure why the lady was not grabbing these up but glad she left um alone!;) |
So there ya have it y'all! A tour of my laundry room and newest revamped addition! I can not tell you how much I am LOVING the dresser in here!! I literally do abt two loads a day now! Well okay I do one load and fold it while the next dries and waits to be folded till the next day. So I guess one and half loads!;) Thanx for stopping by and be sure to pay a visit to the wonderful Linky parties I have joined in on! I am sure I will be adding a few more by weeks end!;) Between Naps On The Porch-Metamorphosis Monday Savvy Southern Style- Boring To Better Party French Country Cottage- Feathered Nest Friday Southern In My Heart- Inspiration Friday Miss Mustard Seed- Furniture Feature Friday Kelly's Korner- Show Us Your Life Friday Funky Junk Interiors- Saturday Nite Special |
In case somebody may be wondering, yes our laundry looks just the same over two years later. I admit I am wanting a change but I have not decided just how to accomplish that yet. Some things I want to do are to paint the cabinets, repaint the dresser, take down the fluorescent lighting and replace with a chandy, and paint the room overall. Will it happen any time soon? Probably not because well it really does not need it. It is just fine the way it is but every now and then I crave change in here.
I can see why this room makeover was among your highest viewings Pamela it's FABULOUS!! Love Love that dresser!! Did you also paint your white cabinets?
ReplyDeleteNo wonder this was one of your most viewed. I also love love the dresser. You did a fantastic job on it. Great accessories too.
ReplyDeleteI love that little dresser! I had not seen this post before, your laundry room is very cute! Ours is super small and it is a walk through from the garage to kitchen so not much I can do with it. Hopefully I will at least get it painted this summer. Our spoilt cat has one litter box upstairs and one downstairs in the laundry room too, it was necessary because she was started to leave messes upstairs
ReplyDeleteOh I love it. You did a great job with your laundry room. I really love the chest, and the color is fabulous. Great post. Hugs, Marty

ReplyDeletePamela, I want that laundry room...I am really needing it. I do laundry in the boring basement. Smiles, Susie(She Junks)
ReplyDeleteThis is definitely one of my favorites! I love the dresser in there.
ReplyDeleteI can see why! That room is such an extension of the rest of your beautiful home. So lovely and warm. The chest is so cute and I love (lots) that black wall shelf. Doing laundry in there must be at least somewhat fun ;) It sure is pretty!!

ReplyDeleteWhat a great post it is no surprise that it was your top post. I love, love that yellow chest. It is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI can see why this post was so popular. I would move in there! Just kiddin'. But seriously, if I compare your laundry room to mine, one could really become depressed ;-)
