I mentioned last week that I would be spending a lot of my time making over the laundry room, and I did not lie. I spent my Labor Day weekend doing some pretty serious DIY labor! And look at the difference so far! Alright, I recognize that a lot of the change was just organizing and cleaning up the room, but you have to admit it looks a million times better, right? The paint color is brighter in person than it appears in the after photo, so in my final reveal I will take photos in daylight for a more accurate view of the color I chose.
Who knew that a little color on the walls, brightening up the trim, adding a bench, rug and some storage could make such a difference?! Oh, and although you can't even see the hooks in the before photos, those hooks were silver before. Nothing a little spray paint couldn't handle! I love the contrast of the black on white.
Oh, and that yellow basket hanging among all the black ones? Target was out of black, so I plan to spray paint it to match the rest! In the meantime, I think it adds to the character! I love that the room now has a bit of personality. I don't know about you, but colorful walls makes me happy!
Once Chris gets home and is able to help me with some heavy lifting on the other side of the room, I will post the after photos of the other half. The bright white cabinets are already making such a difference, I can't wait to see what how the rest turns out!
And in case I haven't mentioned it before, I much prefer projects I can finish in a day (or a weekend, at most!). After that I just get bored and want to move onto another project! Doing a small space like the laundry room was juuuuuust the right amount.
Stay tuned for the rest of the reveal next week! What do you think so far?
