My Laudry Room Continued...

I finished the curtains that go over the washer and dryer. It came out super cute! The only left to really put in there for it to be complete is the wall decal which should be here any day now.


I was watching HGTV's Design Star and saw on their first episode one of the rooms that was done and it had the same fabric that I used in my laundry room! It was so cool. Here is the room, see if you can spot the fabric on the headboards.




That room was gorgeous!

Hopefully I can update next week with final laundry pictures.

I hate doing laundry but at least the laundry room is pretty!

I am *almost* completely done with the makeover. I have painted everything and am missing just a couple of last minute details. I am getting a vinyl phrase "Laundry, loads of fun" to put over the window, and I have curtains to put up over the washing machine (from the ceiling to the shelf). I will start that curtain tomorrow most likely.
Here is a panaramic picture (I didn't know about this feature on my camera, it's so cool!), sorry the lighting is bad.



Here are some other pictures.

Part 1 of my Laundry Room Makeover

So one of the things that I want to do this summer is makeover my laundry room. The hubby says that I can do whatever I want to it. So I am going to paint it, make curtains, and redo it to make it more 'homey'. I want a bright and airy color on the walls and a fun patterned fabric. So I went to Joann's and found a great fabric and I am basing everything around my fabric. I wasn't quite sure how I wanted to do make the curtain for the laundry room but I bought the fabric and thought I'd 'wing it'. Well the other day I went to Hancock Fabrics and they were having a sale on their McCall's Patterns. I bought like 6 different patterns for different things. One of the patterns had a valance that I wanted to use for the window. Well yesterday I spent a good 3 hours on the curtain and it came out wonderful! I am so proud of this valance! The most tedious part was cutting the pieces out. That can be tiring! But I finished it and it beautiful if I do say so myself.

Here are some pictures of the valance in the laundry room. I put it up to see what it would look like.


Here is a picture where you can see the color that I am going to paint the wall. It is Glidden's True Turquoise.


Here is a picture of the other side of the valance. The contrast color is brown.


Tomorrow I plan to start painting the laundry. But first I have to empty it!
