DIY Laundry Room Makeover

I’m excited to share our DIY Laundry Room Makeover today.

I have been dying to share the after photos with you all!  The past 30 days of my life have been spent DIYing this laundry room makeover (in partnership with BLANCO).  I think it has been 30 days well spent! When we first moved into our home, the cabinets were dark green.  I decorated the space with all my leftovers from the house and tried to make it a pretty space…

Later I realized I spent way too much time in this room to be staring at a space I didn’t love.  However, I didn’t have much of a budget, so I did the best I could and painted the cabinets and added fabric to the walls:

It made a big difference, but it still wasn’t my dream space.  When I received the opportunity to partner with BLANCO on this laundry room makeover, I was able to DIY my dream space!

Our laundry room sink was original to the house, and it was stained with grime and paint from years of use from the previous owners and years of use from my projects.

I had spray painted the faucet gold but it wasn’t looking too great. The sink was replaced with BLANCO LIVEN Sink and the faucet with the BLANCO ARTONA faucet – both in Anthracite.

The counter was replaced with a stock counter from our local hardware store, and the difference is night and day.

The new sink and faucet are absolutely gorgeous. I have never shared the desk area in our laundry room because I ran out of steam the first time I painted the cabinets.  These poor things were hiding in shame (and junk).

I painted the cabinets (you can see the full tutorial here) and added new hardware.  The after is a space I love and am excited to use!

I shared my laundry room design board a few weeks ago, and the entire room was designed around the gorgeous black sink.

The walls were painted a brighter white and the doors were painted a dark gray.

I tiled the back wall and stenciled the floor (tutorial coming soon).

I added a rack for hanging clothes and replaced our pegboard wall with easy DIY open shelves.  It functions so much better for our family since we needed more storage in the room.

I also added hooks for my kids’ sports uniforms.  Once I wash them, they’re ready for their next game.

I replaced our fluorescent lights with this light from Amazon (the popcorn ceilings are a project for another day).

I can’t tell you how much we love our new sink, and it will be seeing even more useful because we are beginning demo on our kitchen this weekend.  Say hello to our temporary kitchen sink!

A special thanks to BLANCO for the partnership on this laundry room.  It wouldn’t have happened without you!

DIY Laundry Room Makeover

With three kids and all the time I spend in my laundry room, I decided it was time for a DIY laundry room makeover.

Below is a before photo of my laundry room.  Between the green cabinets and lack of natural light, it was a dark space.

Laundry Room Makeover For $200, here’s what I did:

  • Painted the cabinets
  • Removed cabinet doors and painted their interiors
  • Updated the cabinet hardware
  • Hung fabric on the wall
  • Painted the faucet

I painted the cabinets using Amy Howard At Home One Step Paint.  The cabinets were painted in Linen and the inside of the open cabinets was painted in Vintage Affliction.  I’ll be sharing the tutorial for painting the cabinets soon!

The hardware was updated with Hickory Hardware. The knobs are Hickory Hardware’s 1-1/4 In. Tranquility Veneti Bronze with Light Almond Cabinet Knob.

The drawers all have Hickory Hardware’s Cup Pull.

I added fake boxwoods and storage baskets to the open cabinets.  I also put my laundry supplies in cute glass containers I found on Amazon.  I spray-painted the lids gold, and here are the affiliate links:

I painted my faucet to match the cabinet hardware.

Starched Fabric Wall Tutorial And my favorite update is the fabric wall.  I used liquid starch to hang it, and you can see the full tutorial HERE.
