The Laundry Room

This is not a very exciting post, but to tell you the truth, I'm tired of seeing the post of Sam.
Whenever I pulled up my blog to check on my friends and their posts, I kept seeing the poor dog's face and needed to move on. So here are pictures from my latest project.

Last week I was checking out my friend Suzie's post and she was about to reorganize/decorate her laundry room. She just had to go and post pics from HGTV - my downfall. Don says that channel creates way too much work for him!! Anyway, I have been wanting to declutter for a while, but lacked the motivation - so thanks Suzie for inspiring me.

I love Hobby Lobby!!! I got the wall hangings there (50% off, of course). The bench was marked down by $100 because of some scratches, but I can fix that easily. So I took my Mom in with me on Saturday and the furniture was 30% off, but she got them to come down t0 40% off the already reduced price. So it was a huge savings!!! Thanks Mom! I still am looking for a rug to put in front of the washer/dryer. I'll eventually find a bargain.

The most fun room in the house! The girls have their computer in the corner too. I think I need a new laundry basket???


I had this already and am going to paint it black.

The hook (also from Hobby Lobby) for the "dog corner". Now they have a place for their leashes.
What I now see when I go out the door to the garage. Much better than a blank wall.


The BIG bargain of the day! The baskets were black and I painted them red. Sarah and Katie now each have a basket for their many shoes that just ended up all over the floor. I filled the middle one with the many hats, scarves, and gloves that were also just laying around in there.

Super cute! Hey-did you know that if you follow blogs, they will come up on your dashboard as to who recently posted, and that way you won't have to keep checking blogs. It saves a lot of time!

How's the Yoshi shirt? :)

How fun! Chance says the same thing about HGTV! He will be happy though when we win the HGTV Dream Home Sunday night.

This looks great. I have been trying to figure out a way to hang the laundry basket from the wall to get it off the top of the dryer. What did you use? Hope you don't mind if i copy you!
