laundry room :: before + after

With this move of ours came a few home improvement projects …

We bought the house from a guy who’s as bachelor as they come … and I couldn’t wait to “girlie” it up and make it our own!

Ready for some before and afters?  I have a few more down the pipeline, but for starters … I’ll show you the laundry room.  I knew without a doubt the black trim and maroon cabinets needed to go!  I also wasn’t a fan the painting detail on the walls.  Sooo …

I changed it up real good!

“Life is fragile handle it with prayer …”

    Okay, one, I LOVE before and afters. Two, this particular “after” is about as far opposite from the “before” as you can get! Beautiful! (Love the “washed” cabinets too — and super appropriate for a laundry wash room!)

    That looks SO wonderful! Peaceful colors like that are a great choice for a laundry room, since it can turn into a stresser so fast. Love the prayer quote!
