show us where you live...laundry rooms

i'm posting for a weekly room tour at kelly's korner...i missed last week and wanted to post my master bath along with my laundry room. our bedroom and bath are the most calming rooms in our home...to me! i think the color calms me-it's similar to the inside of restoration hardware stores. i had our cabinet builder make the vanities after showing him pics of the ones i liked at pottery barn. he did an awesome job! also, he made the armoire to hold towels, linens, hair products, and lots of other stuff. a view to the shower and bathtub

a close up of my vanity...got the mirrors at target. light fixtures at pottery barn. the basket under the sink holds my hair dryer and chi iron.

i have wanted a clawfoot tub for years...i LOVE taking baths! so i finally got one with this house and enjoy soaking in it all the time. and it's just the right size for me.





okay...now on to this week...this is my laundry room...the only really 'girlie' room in my house. you can't tell in the pictures, but the wall color is hot pink and adorable! i figured i'm in this room a lot and i should be cheerful while i'm in here, so what better color to make me happy than pink?!




i got this wall decal from target online. love chandeliers! here's the washer/dryer side of the laundry room. i had the open cabinets made with adjustable shelves for my baskets, detergent, etc.





this info board hangs on the opposite side of the room. my sister (who always wins fun stuff on blogs) won this and gave it to me to make. it's a heidi swapp canvas kit. so cute for hanging invitations to upcoming events and pictures. i rubbed-on a favorite quote on the little mirror that says, "the best way to prepare for life is to begin to live."









this is the sink and drying area side of the laundry room. my flower market sign came from spice-my favorite home store. and the old window came from one of my other favorite stores, magnolia...sadly it isn't open anymore, but she had the cutest vintage-y stuff! the flowers and flower pots was a housewarming gift from sis...love them!





another angle from this side of the room...my closet holds all my cleaning supplies. got the silver vintage hook from anthropologie, i think, a long time ago. it's perfect for hanging my towels on.



hope you enjoyed!!
