Today I'm moving downstairs to our laundry/mudroom.
Like most homes, this space is located right when you come in from our garage.
The original space was pretty small.
It had a utility sink, the washer and dryer, and cabinets above on one side.
The other side had open space with a coat rack, with cabinets next to it that housed all the laundry from the chute on the second floor.
Thankfully, we expanded this room a bit in our renovation plans.
When you enter from the garage, the room will have storage space for coats, shoes, etc.
I am thinking something similar to the images below.
The utility sink will be on the end of this wall.
On the opposite side with be our washer and dryer with cabinets that go from the floor to the ceiling on each side.
The left side will house detergent, cleaning products, and such, while the right side will be the laundry chute.
This spot was best since we are adding a second bathroom upstairs.
Both X's bathroom and the master will access the chute :)
We have a nice big window and 11 foot ceilings in this space, so I am looking to add a fun light/chandelier.
The cabinets will be white, but I'm kind of liking the idea of having the mudroom cubbies be darker since we live in the woods with lots of dirt and mud.
Plus, X plays all the sports!
The walls will be a lighter gray and we will have wood vinyl flooring in here.
Honestly, I despise doing laundry!
But I'm hoping once this room is complete I might not dislike it as much.
