…But first…
a word from our sponsor
that would be me
No…I didn’t do this, nor is it in our laundry room
But Ohhhh if it were.
I tackled what I thought would be an easy peasy spiff up to our laundryroom/back door.
I had the wood {ish} flooring waiting for awhile in the garage.
I used mexican tile on the counters. That was once many moons ago going to go in the kitchen.
I found a cabinet in the as is dept at IKEA for 50 clams
…and so I started…
and here is where I end up…
I painted the side of the cabinet in blackboard paint…to the left is the door
to the garage. In case you really care.
Added shelves attached from the cabinet to the wall…to create more storage and somewhat of a nook
for the washer and dryer. When that dryer dies and goes to dryer Heaven which it will...soon.
we'll get the dryer brother to the washer...then build a counter on top...and maybe even doors or a skirt...or neither. keepin' ya on your toes.
Inside the 50 clam cabinet…
important stuff. Toilet paper and rubber gloves?
don’t ask.
Even found a good place for my house numbers I brought back from Argentina…
i was on a roll…
Then…inspired by our old madge coathangers
I decided to dabble in a little bit of an orangey red. Mai Tai by Ralph Lauren Paints
I was told I shouldn’t….
But I did…
smack dab on the new door from
Home Depot….40 clams….run to your nearest…see if they are still
there!
the doors were 369 if special ordered….they had tons for 40 buckaroos.
yeppers.
added a couple of cute barn lights.
I needed help with one….but
installed the ceiling light
and the house is still standing. Can I have an Amen!
Oh…rug was a 5 buck steal at IKEA…won’t last forever
but am loving the punch of color!
Um. The mosaic is what happens when you don’t measure your tile correctly
and you like to fly by the seat of your pants
and then you find an old rusted metal bird in the garage
and you just stuff him in too.
because.
yeah, yeah…need to re-paint the cabinets and maybe change out the knobs
and…
Oh yeah.
do some laundry.
maybe.
**I need to go round up some befores...then you might be a teeeensy bit impressed. At least I was. Teensily.
