Need tips on all things rugs? Here’s my guide to choosing the right one for your space. On a tiled floor like this you’ll also need to get a rug underlay so you don’t slip over.
The image above via Jean Stoffer gives you a good idea of how you can do it though.
Let me hunt down some affordable rug or runner options for you and pop up a post on the blog shortly. This is one of the best idea of the lot and is so simple and affordable. And honestly, why can’t a laundry have the warmth and welcome that a living room or bedroom does? You might even start enjoying washing your smalls (miracles can happen!). It becomes a beautiful room rather than a transient space to do chores in. Putting a rug down in your laundry room not only warms it up, but it makes the zone feel less utilitarian. But by putting down a rug or runner, you take the first step in warming up this zone. Laundries can often feel so cold and sterile a forgotten zone you just dump clothes in. But it does give you a good idea of the impact you can make with wallpaper. See how Kresswell Interiors have done it above? I’m loving! And I know this isn’t one of the removable wallpapers, and it might not be your style. This peel-on-peel-off stuff makes wallpaper a lot less scary to experiment with, and it also makes it a genius idea for renters who want to jazz up their laundry room. Luxe Walls is a good local brand I’ve used in the past so give them a go if you want to ease into it. You know, peel-on-peel-off types of paper that won’t leave any damage underneath. They’re actually super chic now.Īnd here’s the even better news: there are numerous brands creating easy-to-remove wallpaper. But there’s really no need to be! Today’s wallpapers are not the garish nightmare varieties of the seventies and eighties. I know I try and push wallpaper onto you all the time, and I know you’re fearful. I’ve used this on walls in client homes before and it’s a stunner. A colour like Dulux Domino is an ideal choice here if you’re after a dark charcoal tone. I call this a low-risk experiment and I absolutely suggest you give it a go.īut trust me (and the picture above via thegreeneyedgirl proves it), taking your walls in a darker direction will make your laundry room a design destination. If it totally backfires and you hate the colour, at least it’s a small and easy fix that won’t cost an arm and a leg to rewind. If you love the result, it you can try it in a larger room in your home and spread the magic from there. So why not get adventurous in the laundry room first? lt’s also usually the smallest room in your home. The reason I say to do it in the laundry room though, is because this isn’t a zone everyone is going to see. I know, this seems obvious, and every magazine suggests paint as a cheap way to revamp a room. Because who wants to be washing dirty undies in a room that looks like a dog’s dinner? Not me! Hopefully you can get some inspo to make your own laundry room amazing too. We’re simply looking at what we have and making the most of it through some smaller fixes. And things that are very much not reno-related. We’re talking stuff you can do yourself, for the most part. And if you know me, you know I like to style every pocket of my home within an inch of its life.Īll of the ideas I’m going to share with you below are really budget friendly. In my previous rental home, the laundry was more of a cupboard hidden under the stairs a dark and dreary hole in the wall with little opportunity to style. Nothing excited me more when I moved into my new home (apart from the mortgage!), than realising I had my very own laundry room. Well, you’ve hit the right blog post today because I have loads of inspo for you! After some cheap laundry room design ideas? You know, making this zone look stylish without breaking the bank.
