Raise your hand if your laundry room is your LEAST favorite room in your house? Haha, we thought so. 😉 With a budget of only $500, we and 9 other DIY Bloggers took on the challenge of updating one of the most overlooked rooms in our homes, the laundry room. Here’s a peek of Kelli’s laundry room before, untouched other than updating the washer & dryer and adding a little utility sink, since the 1970’s! (And, we only used a bit under $300 to spruce up this space!) Check out this very outdated before:

From redoing the shelving to painting and accessories, this space went from drab to pretty fab!

We have the other side of the room still to make over but head over to Angie’s List in the meantime to take a looksie at the full reveal and the 9 other spaces that were made over on tight budgets. UPDATE: Lots of questions about the paint color:

Easy step-by-step tips to spruce up your laundry room on a budget! We transformed this space for less than $300!

Now we’re off to tackle the storage part of this space, stay tuned! Check out more of our room makeovers like our Craft Room Refresh,

I may be the only crazy one on here, but I enjoy doing laundry, lol. And my laundry room is a walk thru to the garage so it’s very small, but I’d love to paint it and do something with the cabinets in there. Yours looks adorable, I love the colors. When you say “on a budget” , how much were you able to do it for?

  The challenge was $500 but we spent less than $300 🙂

Just having a room dedicated to laundry would be great. Our washer and dryer is in our back hallway. Totally in the way of everything. I love how organized yours is and thank you for sharing with us this week at Celebrate Your Story, have a great weekend.

  I thought I’d be a little more motivated but yaaaaaaah, I got unmotivated after the second load, hahah!

Laundry and I just don’t get along but I have a feeling if my laundry room looked more like this I might be open to spending more time in it. You did great, ladies! Beautifully Candid

Laundry wouldn’t be such a drag in a pretty space like yours!

When I read this quote about re-doing the laundry area, (“… I kept the fresh soaps and stored the excess in the washer and dryer pedestals. This left me thinking: “Why didn’t I use that space before? Duh!”)

I do love the light over the utility sink and the clock.

It is so nice to make pretty changes… it brightens the daily work. 🙂
Amber on March 13, 2017 at 3:15 pm
