Renovations Step One

Well the laundry room is complete!!

Here it is in pictures!

Here is what the master bathroom used to look like.




So this is what the laundry room looked like before. More like a laundry closet at the end of my eating area for the kitchen. So my dirty laundry was on the floor if people stopped over out of the blue. Or my drying rack (see it on the side) would be there doing it's job and people would come and see the clothes drying. Or how about the folded clothes on the kitchen table. That is always fun. When we first bought the house, we thought it was great having the laundry room there. After many years, we have found it is not so great.



After some very hard work on my hubby's part and some painting on my part this is how it looks now!

New tile floor. There was nothing wrong with the old floor, except for the fact that there was no tile under the bathtub and we didn't have enough spare ones to fix the spot.



I now have a soaking sink.


We are reusing the vanity from the bathroom and just got a new counter for it. This is where I fold the laundry.


I love my new sorting hampers. It makes it so easy to see what load needs to be washed. Before I would have a pile of laundry, then sort it on the kitchen floor and find that I didn't have enough wash for a white load and then carry the clothes back upstairs.


Christy, we are using the kids bathroom. So instead of my palm trees and beachy feel, I have all yellow ducks around me! It is working fine. But I am sure it will grow old. We are adding on to the second floor of the house at the end where our bedroom is. We will be putting on a new master bathroom and an exercise room. The latter is very funny because we don't exercise, so it will probably be my craft room.
