A Finished Laundry Room… Almost

I am so happy with my laundry room and the recent changes I’ve made.  First we finished my sewing corner.  Finished may not be the right word since there are still some things I want to do in this corner.  For starters I’d like to fix that light cord that’s hanging along the ceiling.  But I’m loving having a dedicated sewing spot.  Love!

Now that I use this cubbyhole as my sewing corner, I wanted a place to put supplies, materials and other craft projects.

I have a folding counter in my laundry room and at the end of it there is some open space where I have my trash can as well as my laundry detergent.  This area was always meant to be a sewing counter but it was never completed.

Do you have any spaces like that?  I have a lot of them.

Well one day I got the inspiration to put a shelving unit there with baskets.  And this is what that area looks like now but instead of baskets this unit from Costco came with canvas containers.

A place to put any projects I’m currently working on… I’m happy.  I’m really happy that this laundry room is almost completely finished (after how many years?  don’t ask).  I just love the colors in there and the order, too.

 That counter is another project.  someday…

My laundry organizers are so very handy.  All my laundry is sorted and I can see at a glance what load needs done.  You have to remember we are a family of 8, so if you’re a family of 3-4, you might not need as many organizers as I have.

 Over my folding table I have this picture hanging.

I’ve had it for several years.  I really enjoyed putting it together because the pictures did not have to be perfect.  As a matter of fact, I tried to find lots of pictures with the kids dirty and muddy.

If I were to pick one of my favorite household duties I think laundry would rank right up there in the top 3.

What about you?
