Hello, hope this finds you well. We had a glitch with all comments being removed from my blog (the last 6 years) and I nearly had a heart attack. Thankfully it’s fixed as of last night and we are back in business, phew!<\/p>\n

Behind the scenes we have begun the process of a whole new and much improved website, so there may be hiccups from time to time. But comments are back up and working and you can now leave your comments because as you know,\u00a0 I love hearing from you!<\/p>\n

Remember this fun series I started and we all chimed in about? Designing our own custom version of a dream home, we had such fun discussing several rooms of a house with many more to come.\u00a0 If you missed previous posts, click here.<\/strong><\/em><\/a> Today we will talk about the laundry room, only in the last 5 years or so has this become an actual “room” that often serves more than just the function of doing laundry. It has become a destination:)<\/p>\n

Many will put a desk in there, if space allows, put in a TV, a space for your pet, or even a computer. Some will use it as a gift wrapping room or one that doubles as a cutting room (I have occasionally done that). Today’s laundry room is just not your ordinary laundry room that we knew from the past.<\/p>\n

If I were building a new one, it would be big<\/em>, as in about a 12 x 12 . I would want it to feel very open and I would want a really big window for natural light. Read on for\u00a0 my ideas, then I cannot wait to hear yours-<\/p>\n

________________________________________<\/p>\n

I fell in love<\/em> with this painted cement floor (and may very well really use it in the new PB house) so pretty and adore the color palette! Click here for the bargain of a lifetime…..<\/strong><\/em><\/a><\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"<\/p>\n

Love how big and roomy this room is below ……I would make that window even bigger<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I like the idea of 2 washers and 2 dryers for a busy household.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

If I were doing the floor that I included in the first picture,\u00a0 I am almost certain I would go with a very pale blue\/gray cabinet to pull the color from the floor. Something like this one on top or below-<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Love these cabinets, the color, the height, etc… I would change the light fixture though<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I would definitely want a really large oversized sink that could do double duty for my flowers<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

A few of the bells and whistles I would like would be a cute tucked in doggie eating area like this below, love that it has its own little water filler, so clever!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I had to include this because it is sooo cute though I never see myself having 3 dogs, cute as they may be<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Speaking of pooches, this is most certainly, in my eyes,\u00a0 the ultimate dog washing station in a laundry room!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I mean seriously how cute is this! Such clever people out there:)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Simple things like a drying rod are so simple but often overlooked yet so very practical!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

LOVE these ideas below for incorporating and maximizing space to have an area for gift wrap,etc….<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\" \"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Love the idea of being able to have a desk and\/or computer in a laundry room..talk about being able to multi task!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

And if I can carve out a spot for my beloved flowers, this would be a home run! Adore how light and bright this space feels-<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

So here is a final recap on what I would love this new dream house laundry to look like<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

OK, don’t know about you but I am totally ready<\/em> for a laundry room makeover:) Seriously, I am loving<\/em> so many of these ideas. How about you? Love to hear your input and thoughts and what your dream house laundry room might look like. Next time, we will tackle the living room.<\/p>\n
