Laundry Room Reveal
Next up on the home reveal series, possibly the most often overlooked room of a house: the Laundry Room! In our case, the laundry room & landing spot as it is right across from our garage entrance door. Since it needed to be a bit dual-purpose and act as both a laundry room and mudroom, it was designed a bit differently than if it were only a laundry area.
We started by removing the wire shelving - have I ever mentioned how much I hate wire shelves?! Probably not, but now you know. They were also in the garage entrance closet, pantry, bathroom closets and walk in closets and I am slowly ripping them out everywhere!
I know it's just where we wash dirty clothes, but I like the whole house to be cohesive, updated to our style and any area to be an enjoyable place. So we added blinds, a curtain and rod, a sink for easy stain removal along with cabinet storage for products in addition to an ironing board hook and a rod to hang clothes to dry! We also ripped out the tile and continued the hardwood floor into this room (it's the whole first floor).

The before from before we moved in!
Hooks & cubbies for coats, dog leash, shoes and bag drop offs.
We added blinds and a sheer with a decorative rod.
And a light to match.
We hung this rod between the wall and the side of the cabinet to hang drying clothes.
I LOVE our LG washer and dryer.
We switched to wool dryer balls with essential oils instead of laundry sheets and fabric softener.

The next time we're talking house renovations, it will be the sitting room... or maybe the front porch, whichever finishes first!
