So as I explained I have new followers on board and I'm over the Christmas Crafts and I want recap on where I am in the house.
The first room completed was the laundry - I hope you enjoy!
*********************************************************************************
Well my friends I did it, I finished, presenting The Laundry.
.
Okay you don't need a special invitation, but I did recieve one, I won't be RSVPing any time soon (I hope)
The depend advertisement here states if your over 35 and have had children, you'll probably be needing these. My kids think this is the most hilarious thing and feel the need to make sure I am aware I fit this description, oh they'll be lucky to make it to their next birthdays at this rate!
Anyhow, the image we've all been waiting for....The Laundry.
Firstly apologies once again for the photos, tiny room issues (and bad photo taker/editor)
You may note that I ended up putting a third bracket on the shelf, it started to bow a little in the middle. The light fitting is pink "crystals" it was one of those DIY fitted ones, took all of 5 minutes!
So in short it started like this
Then I painted the stencil on the wall
Made the ABIB
Who can forget my troubles with the Laundry Station
Added Mellywood's Mantra
Horrified you with my But-Ahh cans
Framed my whining iron
Horsed around with my clothes horse organizer
Danced at the Sock Hop
Force fed the kids pasta so I could make these
Added the Pointless Quilt
In spite of all the trial and error, I am so happy with the result. I now have a room I'm happy with and with my laundry loads, it's just as well.
DIY Delight or Disaster? DELIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What do you think?
Thanks for reading
Mel xo
It looks adorable. The colors are so cheerful. With the amount of laundry that you must have, I imagine you spend quite a bit of time in that room.
ReplyDeleteThe recap is awesome! I love seeing all the progress you made with that project. So bright and airy afterwards. I was getting hearing aid offers for the longest time and my husband said it was a sign. He thought he was funny. ha. ha. ha.

ReplyDeleteI love the stencils! I will have to go back to all your previous posts about your projects since I didn't know you then!
ReplyDeleteWOW. That is an amazing transformation. What a bright and happy place. Do you do laundry all day long now? I love everything about this room. I can't wait to see what you do with the rest of the house.
ReplyDeleteJust lovely Mel! It's so fresh, and I love the light fixture. Pink rocks!!
ReplyDeleteYour laundry room is so bright & cheery, Mel. Definitely a delight! :)
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely love this, Mel ! Everything ! I can not pick out a favorite :-) Well done, girl !!
ReplyDeleteThis would make me excited to do laundry, I love it!!!
ReplyDeleteThank is REALLY YOUR LAUNDRY!?!?!?!!!!!!!!!!!! I seriously thought it was from a magazine or something! I LOVE IT!
ReplyDeleteAnything that makes doing laundry better is a+++ in my book! Very cute, love pink!
ReplyDeleteLOVE your laundry room - I think I may even like doing laundry if I had that room :) great job, Mel!!!
ReplyDeleteWow.....so inspiring. I seriously need to do something with my laundry room. It's a catch all for hubby's shoes and old clothes and the cat and her litter box and food trays. Actually, it's a disaster and I have no idea where to start!!! Since it's in the basement, it's a low priority at this point!
