My Laundry Room

We have lived in this house for over 5 years now and never did I think that I would decorate my laundry room. I'm not sure why I never thought to, I guess I figured it's just a small room at the top of the stairs that pretty much only I see. Well, why should that stop me! Right? So I started thinking about what I wanted to do and I saw it in my head. It's what I call a "vision" :) I'll just be going about my business and all of a sudden I'll just stop in my tracks and see it. I don't get lightheaded or headaches or anything like that. HaHa! O.K. so here is my laundry room!





I keep the main living areas of my house nuetral, so I thought I would paint a bold color in this room. With the green color, I knew I wanted a black and white zebra rug. I can't tell you how long I looked for this rug. Months!! I finally found it at Target for $20 just a couple weeks ago.





I saw the idea for this drying rack in a Ballard Designs catalog. But No Way was I paying what they wanted for it. So my wonderful husband made me one. I absolutlely love it! Not only does it look great but I use it all the time.









I wish I had a window in this room, but I don't. Sooo, I bought this old window frame for $2 at a junkyard. It may not give me fresh air or natural light, but I'm lovin it!





And of course, what is a laundry room without the most perfect crystal chandy? Who knew that doing laundry could feel so glamorous. ;)



Well, thats it, that's my laundry room.




With a few more accesories and maybe even a french door, my vision will be complete. :)
