The laundry room should be a pleasant, functional space. If that’s not true of yours, there are easy ways to change that. It is easy to upgrade both the functionality and style of your laundry room with a little time and a few simple design ideas.
Every so often, it would do you well to add a few thoughtful touches to your Cypress rental property. For instance, try designing your laundry room around a theme, such as modern or rustic. If you want to freshen up the look of your space, some good old cleaning might do the trick or you can opt to go for a new paint job that will go a long way to revitalizing the look of your laundry room! But beyond the basics, adding some visual elements or using an unexpected color scheme can turn your laundry room into a cheerful spot. By opting for cabinets, wall colors, and décor that fit within a specific theme, the laundry room can be given a fresh new feel.
For other homeowners, storage space is just as valuable as visual appeal. It is within your capabilities, however, to achieve both! If you want to update your space while adding more storage, adding cabinets or shelves above the washer and dryer might do the trick. If you are a do-it-yourselfer, you can find inexpensive cabinets at a yard sale, thrift shop, or through local classifieds. Going down the DIY route allows you to take inexpensive pre-fabricated cube shelving to mount them on walls with the result of them serving as storage units. With a little creativity, some paint, and some new hardware, you could easily add both extra storage space and beauty to your laundry room.
Aside from cabinets and shelves, there are plenty of ways you can express your creativity through the look of your laundry room. You might try installing a large pegboard on one wall and hang baskets, laundry tools, and other items in a creative and organized way. And, hanging your ironing board on the back of a door or nearby wall is a good way to get organized, just like adding a skinny cart between the washer and dryer to keep detergent and other laundry products kept tidy.
If you’re working with a smaller area, try to add extra storage space with a washer pedestal. Washer pedestals are simply sturdy boxes designed to support your washer and dryer. Luckily, you won’t need much to build your own — just a few boards and stock molding.
If your laundry room is more like a laundry closet, freshening up that space is still very much possible in several ways. A beautiful shelf, some matching baskets, and a decorative touch or two — watch how something as simple as these can instantly revive the look of your space. If it’s within your budget, go for a beautiful set of sliding doors. They can turn an ordinary laundry closet into something warm and inviting.
Plot out your next move as to what can be done to transform your ordinary laundry room into your favorite room of the house. Just keep going, and go through the tiny details one at a time. If it becomes a bit too much, just remind yourself that you will be repaid for all of your efforts. After all, a renovated laundry room may help keep you organized, but it also brings about a new sense of fulfillment as a homeowner.
