Simple Living: The Laundry List

This laundry nook is so well done, shelves, storage and a curtain to hide it all!

Do you have a room in your house that when you walk by you just put your head down- you know it needs your attention, but you feel like it will never get it done. Every time you are in that space you just want to pull your hair out? That is the laundry "room" for me- or rather closet in the basement which now looks like a construction zone. The light is out, the carpet is gone, I feel like every time I put in a load I am in a nightmare!! There is no where to fold clothes or store products and lugging full bins of dirty clothes down 2 flights is no picnic, but those machines are not going anywhere so I have got to work with what I got! Here are quick, simple ideas that I hope I can put to use and so can anyone else who has laundry to do!
First shelving, of course- when there is no where to go, build up! Ty to utilize as much space as possible above the machines for supplies. If you have a nook on the side stick some mesh stacked drawers there as well- use all available space!
Next once you have a shelf up get some containers to hold all the cleaning stuff- I would advise not to get baskets- spills, sticky detergent and powder will ruin wicker, go with metal or plastic.
Then if you have a closet or corner-not a room, get a curatin, door or something adorable which can cover up the laundry zone!
No folding room? Now that supplies are stored above, the machines can be the station where the final step can be done. Get a good hamper as well, large enough to hold it all- with handles, so you can lug more gracefully.
Who likes doing the laundry? Probably no one, but laundry is kind of like sleeping and eating- essential, so stop turning the other cheek when you walk by and take on this dirty job!
