How To Organize And Modernize A Laundry Room

The laundry room is probably the last place to come to mind when updating or organizing our interior space. The laundry room is probably one of the most used rooms in the house, especially if you have an infant or toddlers whose clothes are changed frequently.

Next to the kitchen, the laundry area/room is the hub of the house and gets a lot of traffic. Keeping this area organized and updated is a task most of us would rather not think about. But, having a laundry space that is functional and attractive will make the mundane task of doing laundry more appealing.

Here are some tips to get you started on your way to a wonderful and modern laundry room.

• Paint or wallpaper a feature wall of the room
• Add draperies - if your laundry room is in your  basement adding draperies will soften the space and  make it feel brighter.
• Turn an old bookcase into a shelving unit for your  laundry supplies
• Add a folding station or counter top to fold clothes
• Install several coat hooks or a curtain rod to hang up  laundry from the dryer
• Keep laundry pre-sorted into hampers to make laundry  day easier
• Utilize baskets and colorful containers for organization
• Update ceiling lights and add a task light
• Add house plants and paintings to personalize your  space
• Place a sign on your laundry room door to give it  character
