Laundry Room Reveal

Mr.TRH and I finally finished out laundry room and I am loving it!

Yep, that is the before picture of my laundry room. As I shared in a post a while ago, I was SO sure that I ordered the sink for our laundry room when we picked everything for the house, and when we did the walk though, it wasn't there. When I checked our papers, it wasn't there... hmm, the hook up is there; how did I miss ordering the sink and cabinet??

Almost two years later, we finally decided to put in the cabinets and sink and finish the laundry room ourselves. Thanks to a 20% off kitchen cabinet sale at Home Depot, we were able to do the project a lot cheaper than we had originally planned. Mr. TRH and I have never done this before and it took us a long time to finish, but it is finally done!

We are not most handy people at all, so this was a pretty big project for us. I can't help feeling giddy and having an ear to ear grin when I walk in to the room. Here is the "after" picture and more details...

Opposite side of the room. We put wall to wall shelf and rod up. Now I can hang more clothes without them touching each other. I use garbage pails with lid as a hamper. I love how I can hide our dirty laundry inside of them.

I was so excited to decorate the room. The first thing I did was to paint the wall a very subtle gray. Does the wall art look familiar? I moved it from the family room to the laundry room. I had several options, but all the kids love the wall art there.

Then, the most exciting feature in this room... the sink. This is the first house I have a sink in the laundry room! Thanks to our friend T & T for helping us with plumbing, we would have been lost without you!

Between the job, everyday responsibilities, and yard work it was hard to find the time to do this, but it was worth it. Sometimes I will just walk in to the laundry room for no reason, so I can just look at it. I will share the pictures of the built in bookcase when we are finished, so stay tuned! :)
