Living in Laundry

 The Laundry Room Makeover Reveal! The One Room Challenge with Better Homes and Gardens comes to and end... Welcome to the new laundry room...                  This is what we started with, a cluttered dungeon.  ( For more before/after comparisons head to end of the post!) All items I used in the makeover are linked throughout this post next to the corresponding photo.   My goal with this room was to make a happy space that I would actually want to do laundry in. I think I achieved that considering I haven’t stopped doing laundry since we started this project. Washer/Dryer Decor &  Shelves I wanted to keep clutter to a minimal but still have everything I need in arms reach to do a load of laundry. With two toddlers and a baby on the way you can imagine how much I use this space and that I do need it to be an efficient area of my home. Dryer balls with essential oil is what I use in the dryer for both my sons clothing and our towels; by putting them into a basket with some decor

One Room Challenge Week 5 The Wallpaper Wall This week has been all about this last wall and I think it was worth wait!  I installed peel and stick wallpaper on the wall behind the washer/dryer from  Wall Blush   and it was definitely a small challenge for me to do myself. I was able to do it and I'm so proud of the results so it can definitely be done by one person but, if you have help take it. The hard part was lining up the seam because you over lap the paper about an inch so you have to match the print to the print on the other sheet. Again, it's doable along but having someone who can help hold up the other side of the panel to the ceiling/wall would be nice. That was truly the only difficult aspect of it, otherwise it went on like a dream.  The wallpaper is such a beautiful floral print that really brightens up this space. When I walk in I instantly want to smile, which has never happened in a laundry room! Use code CRYSTALRANSONS at checkout for 10% off you order at  Wa
