I ended up having an "adventure" today. I came downstairs to the laundry room to put some clothes in the hamper and what did I find - my laundry tub had overflowed. It took a minute for my mind to connect with what I was seeing. :( Throughout the next 45 minutes of sopping up water and cleaning things up I started dreaming of a nice and neat and functional laundry space.
I decided to look up some photo's of laundry rooms and here are some that I think are really nice!

This laundry room was a favorite. Being surrounded by nature seems like a fun way to do laundry. I hope this room is in an area that enjoys all four seasons.

A dream sink! I really love the big, big sinks!

This room looks so fresh and I thought the light fixture was very fun!

I see a pattern with colors that I am drawn to.

So much space!

A grand entrance!
I'm really hoping that sometime this summer we can freshen our space up a bit! It is in need of new wallpaper and I would love a counter that would extend wall to wall and top my washers for easy folding. My washers are on those drawer stands right now and it makes them too tall to fold on so I take everything out to the dining room table.
I have to make it through our January/February home improvement projects so for the moment I better stop thinking about this plan.
Thanks so much for stopping by!
I would be horrified to show photos of my laundry room. Have you seen Julie at Monkey Grass Hill's laundry room makeover. Its a good one. www.monkeygrasshill.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteYears ago I heard Oprah say your laundry room should be one of the most beautiful spaces in your home - because women spend soooooo much time in there. I agree with her. Maybe in my next house... :)
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear about your flooding situation Lynda! That stinks!
ReplyDeleteLove all these inspirations! My laundry room is in need of an update....so bored with the wall color!! I am in LOVE with that big sink in photo number 2! I can't imagine what it would be like to have a laundry room as big as the Velvet and Linen one! Wow! Stunning.
Have a good day!

ReplyDeleteI love the windows in the first photo...light like that would make the whole task so much better.

The first one is so wonderful, don't think it is too often we think of the view when planning a laundry room but isn't it wonderful? Some great laundry room finds here, really liking the one with a TV too. XO
ReplyDeletewow these are such beautiful rooms! how can you not enjoy doing laundry is spaces like these? I'm in LOVE with that huge sink!! I think I need to spruce up my laundry area.... :)
ReplyDeleteWow, Lynda... sorry to hear about your flooding situation. I hate unexpected surprises like that.
ReplyDeleteOh... to have a laundry room as beautiful as any one of these... they're all dreamy! I think it would even make me want to do laundry just to spend time in the gorgeous room... lol!
Have a wonderful week!
