Ideas For Blending Style With Practicality In The Laundry Room
Although tough jobs are completed in the laundry room, it doesn't have to be a den of disdain. Rather, it can be a stylish area that adds functionality to your home. Design a laundry room that gives you extra storage and works as a multi-functional room, while being just as stylish as the rest of the home.
Color & Style.
Even though the laundry room is a highly practical space, it does not need to be dull. Choose a welcome dose of color that feels sunny and bright. Walls in shades of clear yellow, soothing aqua, sea foam green, lavender or shades of red will warm and energize you. Bring in bold accents with accessories. Utilize the space above cabinets to exhibit pieces that make you smile like glassware, metal florist vases, pottery, collectibles, baskets, or birdhouses. Go boldly where you've never gone before with wall art in bright shades; framed graphic prints, a striking wall mirror, painted garden iron or palm tree wall art will help you define your style.
Sunshine Always Welcome.
If your laundry room has a window, choose sheer cafe curtains that make the most of natural light or matchstick shades that filter intense sunlight while allowing outdoor views to remain. Dull and boring florescent light fixtures can be switched out with trendy pendent lights. Strategically place a wall mirror where it can capture and reflect light, making the room feel spacious and airy.
Built-in Storage and Cabinetry.
If your laundry room includes a closet, invest in shelving and rods that allow you to make the most of the space. You can store jackets and other winter wear on a rod while shoes, cleaning and pet supplies, outerwear and hats can be stored on shelves.
Cabinets and shelving units can be used to fill up unused wall space. If you're concerned about expense, choose attractive white laminate cabinets that look smashing with while appliances and pastel or brightly painted walls. Enhance your comfort and storage capacity with pieces that serve more than one purpose, such as a bench with bottom storage.
A versatile storage option is free-standing mobile units that allow you to sort dirty laundry, hang clothing and store your supplies easily and simply.
Room with Many Functions.
A laundry room with a counter and sink is perfect for other activities like pet care and arranging flowers. Free up some space from other areas in the home by hanging a shelf for hobby or pet supplies. Use your hobby or pet as inspiration for laundry room decor. Garden or pet theme accents make it easy to bring a motif into a laundry room that is genuinely complemented by items that you store and display there. For instance, wall hooks can display colorful leashes, collars and dog bandanas. A basket can hold favorite balls and toys and a monogrammed pet bed tells everyone who rules. Display a colorful canister of dog treats on a counter top. Enlarge favorite pictures of your dog or cat and use computer effects to make bold modern prints that you can frame and use as extra large wall art to accent blank wall space.
Don't overlook the obvious when you are decorating your laundry room. This is one area where you must make every centimeter of space count and where the decor should reflect on your lifestyle and interests.
