Gorgeous. But what to do when the hot water heater is also there and is beyond ugly? It is not in a closet.

I love this! When we were doing our home the laundry room was high on my list! Keeping it bright and organized helps my mood when doing something I do not enjoy! Enjoy your amazing remodel!

We lived in a 1890’s house, we fixed it all up. But literally the basement where my laundry was, was a dungeon. No exaggeration. When we moved in there was a dirt floor in the basement, so we had concrete poured but it was still disgusting. We just moved into a new construction home 8 weeks ago and I have first floor laundry. I am completely delighted! It does have a window, and we got a really nice washer dryer which turns out makes all the difference. Laundry gets done in no time. I’m delighted. But I too want to fix it up and make it functional and gorgeous. My style is kind of modern industrial farmhouse. But part of me wants to decorate the laundry a light pink with a chandelier and like super glamorous and gorgeous. Bc let’s face it, I’m the only one doing laundry. Not sure yet though. I’m excited to see your reveal tomorrow and hope that it inspires me. Oh and ps I’m having my third soon too. He/she is due in a few weeks so they’ll be close to Brems age!

I would just like one. I live in a 1000 sq foot ranch and the washer and dryer are right next to my kitchen sink! I seriously have 4 feet of counter space, 2 on each side of the sink. I so want a front loading washer so that I can extend the counter, but alas, my husband is soooo practical. Why would we replace perfectly functioning W and D for new ones? Haha , men. At least I have them though, unlike poor Mary B, I do not miss the days of laundromats and apartment laundry rooms.

I’d have one! However ugly anyone’s laundry room is, I’d challenge whether it’s worse than sharing it with a floor of strangers & pilfering quarters from friends & family to plug into the machines. I long to be able to “fluff up” wrinkly, stretched-out jeans in the dryer… To be able to throw a load in & forget about it without worrying that a “neighbor” is going to pile my wet clothes in a dirty corner (Bonus: I hand wash my pretty panties, so it’s only the free VS cotton panties that’d they find! Not cute! Lol).

How awesome! Can’t wait for the new look! We recently remodeled our laundry for the ORC back in the fall of 2015. Check it for some cool inspiration (I think you will love it). I saved tons by doing most of the work myself (except electrical). Enjoy!!! ??

My laundry room is currently in an unfinished basement. So what would I change about it? ALL OF IT!

The best thing about my “laundry room” (which is really just a washer and dryer in an unfinished part of the basement) is that there is a laundry shoot from the bathroom above. I still have to schlep the clean laundry back up, but the dirty laundry always makes its way down! Of course we have to have a babylock on the little door in the bathroom, but that little shoot is awesome! It’s really just a cutaway between the studs with a little extra that sticks out into a closet on the other side, but it is genius!

I appreciate that I have a laundry room and not a laundry walk through. I love having a door to close it off from the rest of the house, however I do not have one bit of storage other than a high on the wall shelf. I need cabinets, color, and ventilation.

We recently moved into our new home and our laundry is still not set up a week and a half later. The washer is, but the dryer has been a never ending saga. We bought stackable front loaders to fit into a small space in our “mud room” hallway. Cutting the hole for the vent took forever! I thought we’d already bought the stacking kit, but apparently we didn’t and now the hose for the gas is the wrong size. I’m hoping tonight is the night we finally get this thing finished!
