Laundry Room Inspiration

There's nothing "wrong" with our laundry room, but to say it's not really my style would be putting it mildly. I guess, really it has no set style. It's just kind of there.
After a bit of a long day with Sam and a lot of pinteresting I found a sample paint in the closet from another room I had painted and thought, "'ehh..maybe I'll just see if I like this in there" before I knew it I had cut in the room. I, obviously didn't have enough paint to finish it but just cutting it in at least felt like I was doing something to change it. It may stay like this for a week or so, but I do have big plans for it, I do! Here's what I've come up with from pinterest. I'm wanting vintage, with a little bit of Sally's shop from Practical Magic with just a small touch of farmhouse(probably in the sense of baskets)...follow all that? Me either, but it's exactly what i'm picturing.

Here she is in the before-because we all love a good before picture. All I've done thus far is have my husband add that beautiful old sliding door for me. However, the door actually in the room will have to be replaced, the previous owners want it because it's filled with their kiddos heights marked in to it. I get it, it's special and we would love for them to get to keep that. Plus, it means I can put more o my own touch on it. Hopefully I can find some ideas. Maybe a vintage screen door? That'd be a good kick to always keep that little pantry/coat closet clean.

 

After spending the evening cutting it in. I will be taking down that white shelf, I just couldn't by myself. Honey do list...it's growing.

The color i'm using is Sea Salt--it says it's a color Chip and Jo use, Now...I don't know if that's true but it's a good enough reason for me to give it a whirl.

I'm wanting these beauties framed and hung. I'm obsessed with them. A pretty wooden frame..I can not wait. (all of these pictures are off of pinterest)

A few décor ideas

I'll replace the white shelves with a good stained wooden one with brackets. I'm pretty sure hobby lobby or Lowes has some good ones. We bought some a few years ago for another shelf I had made in our other house.

I can make this sign fairly easy with my Cameo..i'm really hoping I can do all of this on the cheap.

 

How cute I this idea? My husband is always bugging me about losing socks.

We have an old freezer in the room, how cute would it be to add trim and bead board to it? I love the idea, we will see how it goes trying to talk the guy that'll have to do the work in to it though!!

I don't know how much use an herb garden would be in there, but isn't it adorable?!

 

 

 

 

I'm so anxious to get started on it once I get the paint done. I think I can manage to do it fairly cheap. It is garage sale season, after all! I can't wait to show you an after picture!
