Laundry Room Redo

Finally, here are the pictures of the finished laundry room. Sorry it took so long to get these up. We kept it really simple so my mother in law can make any changes she wants.

Laundry Room Wall Art

I wanted to keep the laundry really simple, fresh and clean. Also, I wanted my mother-in-law to still be able to do a lot to the space to really make it her own. This project was $7.00, and makes a nice impact on the room without over powering it.

Supplies:

Chipboard Letters(Hobby Lobby .99 on sale)

Scrapbook paper (Bo Bunny)

Modge Podge

Black Paint

Foam Brush

Sticky Tack

First I painted the edges of the letters black and let them dry.

Then I traced the letters onto the paper, cut the paper out and modge podged the paper onto the letter- let dry.

Next I took a fingernail file and sanded all the egdes of the letters and modge podged the letters and let dry.

I took sticky tack and hung them on the wall.

Ta da!

I was contacted by Jessica to join their silent auction for Preslee and thought why not? So now is a great time to grab some Lulu's for a great cause!

Memo Board Refashion

This is the first project from the laundry room redo that I am going to show you. When I was cleaning out the laundry room I found this memo board and decided to dress it up to match the room.

Supplies:

Fabric

Ribbon

Hot Glue

Staple Gun

Step one: Take buttons off the memo board- mine were just glued on.

Step Two: Measure fabric and trim the fabric to fit the board.

Step Three: Staple fabric around board, pulling tight.

Step Four: Measure ribbon lengths and cut.

Step Five: Staple fabric onto the back of the board, stretch across the front of the board and staple on the other side.

Step Six: Staple where the ribbons meet.

Step Seven: Cut out fabric squares slightly larger than the buttons. Uncover buttons.

Step Eight: Place a drop of glue on the front of the button.

Step Nine: Press fabric to button.

Step Ten: Trim fabric.

Step Eleven: Place a drop of hot glue on back of button and press fabric into middle.
Step Twelve: Glue buttons onto front of memo board.

Linking to these parties!

Laundry Room Redo...

Some of you faithful readers may or may not know that we have moved and are living in Utah in my in-laws basement apartment. As a thank you for letting us live here with our rather active borderline crazy 2 yr. old we thought we would redo their laundry room for them while they were out of town for the week. (Last year my sister-in-law and I redid the craft room- I'll post that later) Here are the befores.... stay tuned to see the final result later this week. As you can see the previous house owner bless their heart was in LOVE with wallpaper- she wall papered every surface she could- including the laundry room. Along the way I'll show you some of the projects that are going into this little room.
