Having a dedicated room specifically for your washing is such a great idea.
Washing, drying and folding can all be done in one space.
You can have different sections for putting the dirty and clean clothing.
Placing baskets, jars, shelves and boxes gives you so much storage for everything that you have.
Some laundry rooms have sinks as well as cabinets for more storage.
The examples below are perfect if you are looking to create your own storage room.
There are so many great examples that will surely inspire you.
Tips for creating a laundry room:
- Choose the right colours – you want to opt for lighter and softer colours. The right colour can make your laundry room like bright, airy and spacious. Of course, you can also choose darker colours if the rest of your house has them too as you would want to match your laundry room with the rest of the decor.
- Choose the right material – something to consider when creating a laundry room is that there is going to be a lot of dirty and wet items constantly. You want to choose materials that are durable, waterproof and will stand the test of time.
- Add plenty of storage – having cabinets, shelves, hanging rods and space for extra baskets is must. There would be plenty of items that would need to be put away in your laundry room.
- Add shelves – shelves are a great idea for a laundry room. Whether they are big or small, they add so much more space. You can put extra baskets, towels, jars, plants and signs.
- Have baskets – whether they are laundry baskets or wicker basket, you will always need them. Having baskets for your lights, darks and delicates could be really useful. Having smaller wicker baskets can be used for washing pods, detergent liquid and colour catchers.
- Add decorations – your laundry room needs to look pleasant so placing plants, signs, wreaths and any small decoration would be a great addition.
