Can you say woo hoo!!
Let’s start from the beginning…..The BEFORE picture!
This place was a mess! Builder’s beige walls, ugly floor and basic light fixture…
(and no, I didn’t do laundry with my washer and dryer out in the floor…..we were selling them and got a new set of stackables) :0)
OK…you ready for the AFTER?… (warning…lots of photos ahead!)
Here she is…….
I’m in LOVE…..I even ENJOY doing laundry now!
Now you see the ugly furnace…
Now you don’t! I’ll show you how I hung the curtain to hide the furnace in a later post, but doesn’t it look SO much better?!
If you missed how I installed the floor, go HERE.
I’m lovin’ having a chandelier in my laundry room….makes me wanna sleep in here! I’ll show you the before of the old chandy later, but for now…she’s so lovely!
See those cute little knobs on the wall?? I’ll show you those up close next post….and there may or may not be a giveaway on some just for you! (ok, there will be..you pulled it out of me!)
Here’s the Goodwill Dresser side….(if you haven’t seen the before of this dresser, you need to go HERE….the difference is amazing!)
You can go HERE to see how I installed the board and batten and HERE to see how I refurbished the Habitat Re-store cabinets I installed on the wall.
I’ll also have a tutorial on how I made these cute little pictures in an upcoming post!
I absolutely LOVE my new laundry room! So tell me what you think!
Don’t forget to come come back next post to sign up for the damask knob giveaway!

Wow, that's amazing! I would even love to do laundry in there and I hate doing laundry. Mine is in my basement which I have to go outside to get to and its yucky down there. :-( I want a laundry room like that!!!
I've been waiting for this reveal. Nice treat for a Saturday morning. I'll be checking the 'back links' to see the progress again.

Missy, the transformation is awesome! Really stunning! I would love doing laundry, too! You amaze me girl!
Absolutely gorgeous! With a laundry room as chic as that I'd be looking for things to wash!! ;). Congrats on a job really well done! I adore the chandelier, btw. :)
Laurie@TheBakingBookworm
Wow. Oh, WOW!! YOU are amazing! And your work is pretty good, too. ;D I have a dresser downstairs and I could try to imitate yours. AFTER the wedding. Less than 30 days away. Needless to say, I must stay focused. ♥♫
It's gorgeous Missy!

This is amazing!!! You have completely inspired me to redo my laundry room! Great job!
~~~rhonda~~~
I love that you actually did put a chandelier in there! Your laundry room looks so beautiful I could live in there.
One word: fantabulous!
What a fantastic job you did with this room! Love all your colors, the board & batten and decorative touches! It's just beautiful!

I don't blame you for wanting to sleep in there! Your family must think you are the most talented decorator! I know I do!~Love ya! Patti
Missy,
Your laundry room looks spectacular! Love your solution to hide the furnace. Beautiful job and now looks up to par with the rest of your lovely home. I am putting this in my inspiration folder. However, my ideal laundry room will feature a wet bar that specializes in martinis. hehehe
Your Friend,
Deborah
I love your laundry room makeover! I completely understand wanting to sleep in there! My favorite part is how you used neutrals for everything and then put in accents with the blues. Easy to change if the mood strikes! Bravo!

GASP! It's unbelievable! Absolutely amazingly crazy cute now! I love your dark floors too, they just make it, especially with the white and blue... and well, everything... i can't believe how charming this little laundry room is now..
Cindy
Totally love it! Our laundry room/furnace room is in the basement and I've always said I don't "need" it to be looking nice since I use it as a sort of "fix stuff in here when the weather's bad outside" room. But your laundry room is making me lean towards doing up our room nicer! Thanks so much for the inspiration!
FAB-U-LOUS!!!!! I love it Missy! You are just a clever, clever girl, with the classiest laundry ever!
Hugs!
Jen xo
WOW!! SIgn me up to do the laundry please!! what a cozy, fresh, and clean space!! Perfect for doing laundry with my choice of adjectives!! You did a great job!!!
Oh, my!! Doing laundry never looked so glamorous, it's beautiful!
wow! Missy your laundry room looks fantastic! I know you must smile every time you walk in there or even walk by it!
way to go girl!
gail
You are the laundry room rockstar! I did mine in that same color but what a wealth of inspiration you have given me for taking it to the next level.
Pam @ BeColorful
Love this! Great job!
WoW! It doesn't look like the same room. I love it. Gail
Stopping by from Met Monday... Your laundry room makeover is fantastic! I'm going to check out your previous posts. I do LOTS of vintage linens laundry, so a laundry room that's nice to look at is a must! Yours is a pleasure to use, I'm sure.
I'm having a Vintage Linen & Dish Auction soon. I hope you'll stop by and check out more details on my sidebar - then save the date!
Came across your post from Thrifty Decor on Twitter, what a beautiful laundry room! I am so impressed you created it all by yourself, well done, it's beautiful!! Off to discover the rest of your blog...
Wow! I love it! Can you please tell me the paint color? I'm looking for something similar for my bathroom and laundry room. Love how everything looks - so relaxing. I want to remodel my laundry room now. Thanks for sharing!
Wow! Now that is a before and after! That room would make ME want to do laundry. That dresser was made for that room. It all looks fabulous!
I absolutely love it. I want to decorate mine now!!!!
Hi Missy,
Your laundry room is so pretty now! I too would enjoy doing laundry in such a space.
Love the colors you selected and wow do those stackables give you so much more room.
The interior designer in me has to ask a question in the name of safety. Is the fabric that you used to cover the furnace flame resistant?
Sorry to be Debby Downer but I would hate for your space to go poof!
Love this!!! Beautiful!!
To answer a couple of questions. :)
1. paint color is Tropical Mist from Lowes.
2. Laura, the curtain didn't have to be flame resistant because that unity doesn't get hot at all...it's more of a return thingy. It has one pipe on the other side, that gets warm, but there's nothing anywhere near it. Thanks for looking out for my safety though, I appreciate it! :)
oops..meant to say unit doesn't get hot..not unity! lol :)
WOW! I love this! I love your cabinets, counter and shelves! Very nice. Maybe I need to re-do my laundry room?
Jen
Beautiful. I'll be checking back to see how you did those silhouettes.
This is gorgeous! I love all the refurbishing! I featured it here @ my Storage Geek blog.
OMG how beautiful! I love the blue counter top!! It is all just lovely and I would want to do laundry every day!
Wow! That is beautiful!
I want.
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it.
I wanna do the laundry now!
Oh man. I wish I had the space to have a cute laundry space like this!! Darling details! Love the curtains, the dresser, the chandy, the board and batten... ok, I'll stop now. :D
thanks for the sweet comment, I got the wallpaper at home depot, it was on clearance but you can check the books they have.
Missy, your laundry room turned out GORGEOUS!! Love every last detail!! Including the curtain to hide the furnace!! I am getting ready to do the same thing in my laundry room as well. I need to hide the furnace & the water heater! Would love to see how you hung the curtains!
Can a laundry room be beautiful? Yours definitely is...I especially love the chandelier and am drooling over everything. I might even catch up on my laundry if I had a room like this to do it in!
I cant believe I have only just seen your blog! I absolutely adore what you have done with your laundry. I wish I had a proper laundry room so I coul do something nice like that!
I have just become a follower, I cant wait to see what else you have :)
That is absolutely GORGEOUS! Can't wait for your wall redo post because there's so many ways to do that style, but I'd love to hear how you did it!
Question, was the make over thrift or budget pushing?!
Just gorgeous, well done!
Pamela @ pbjstories.blogspot.com
Wow! Looks great! I've been needing to paint my laundry room and update the lighting fixtures and you've given me inspiration so, Thank you!
Wow, wow, wow!!! Just stunning....there's not much more to say than that. :)
What an unbelieveable transformation. I love the color combination it's so fresh and would make me want to spend time in the laundry room. You used the space so wisely it looks larger and so organized. Great job!
Truly an amazing transformation!Your laundry room is awesome!
I love it! You did a great job! Can you do mine? lol

Gorgeous laundry room! I'd do laundry here any day!
oh good lord!!! can I just use your laundry room as my room??? I so absolutely love it! I need you to come help me redo mine!!!
That is absolutely gorgeous! It's hard to believe they are the same room! I bet you just love it. :)
Woo Hoo.....nice.
Wow!! Now THAT is a before and after! Gorgeous!! Love the colors and the dresser and the board and batten...I love the whole room! God bless!
That is an AMAZING makeover! Your laundry room looks like it was given a Candice Olsen HGTV design makeover! Well done! You have inspired me to sand down and makover my son's white, six drawer dresser that he's had since he was born and is now 13!
WOW!! Now that is a change! I love it! You've inspired me...I thank you, my hubby won't! LOL
Love it! You did an amazing job. Where did you get the blue mason jars?? I want those! :)
Om, my! This is the prettiest laundry room I've ever seen! I've got to pin it.
Love your laundry room...I love those colors...really want to do bath/laundry in these same colors...incredible job...you should be so proud!
Beautiful, i am still remodeling my pantry/laundry room (in the clouds of my mind that is). thank you for sharing.
Also...about those curtains...please tell me about the fabric...love it!
Amazing! I'm speechless!
That is the most beautiful laundry room I've ever seen!
Your laundry room is simply stunning. I'd be tempted to sleep in there too!
Ok.. I have a furnace in my laundry room, too. AND a hot water tank. What is your ceiling like in there? We have nothing because of all the plumbing and ductwork running through there. It's almost beyond help. Yours looks amazing, though!
Hey Courtney....I have another post on the laundry room that shows the ceiling etc..here's a link :)

Missy
Your laundry room is so cute I can hardly stand it! Haha
Love your blog! I will be back. :-)
WoW! Who wouldn't want to do laundry in there. Can't wait to see how you hung the curtain I am planning to do the same thing but wasn't sure where to start.
wow!! this would make doing laundry so serene!!! too cute!!!
Your laundry room turned out beautiful! I am right now redoing my laundry room and also thinking about using peel and stick tiles I just haven't found any I like yet. You have done a wonderful job. I hope mine turns out half as pretty.
Wow - I never thought I would describe a laundry room as "cozy", but you've done it! Beautiful!!
The transformation of your laundry room is great. Everything found in the room is new. And look! a chandelier in a laundry room. So cute!
Soooo Cute! I'd enjoy doing laundry too!
Great job!!!! Thanks for sharing

Your laundry room is so beautiful! You did great!!!
Happy New Year!
Love,

I can't even begin to tell you how much I love and adore your cute laundry room! Using the dresser in there was GENIUS!!
so gorgeous!! I'm trying not to covet :) My laundry room is like a basement dungeon... it isn't even drywalled!
Looks awesome! I can't find the link to how you hung the curtain to hide your furnace though.
Wow that's fantastic! Gave me great ideas for my laundry room I need to redo. I just read about your dresser - I love how God answered your prayer for a dresser! I am now following you.
Great makeover and use of space! I cant wait to tackle mine!
Grace&love Always!
