The next house project

Up next on the house re-do to-do list will be the laundry room.  

She ain't big, and she ain't beautiful (yet!), but I already love her.  In our old house, the laundry was in the corner of the basement.  It was nice because I could spread out, but it was a basement and there were occasionally spiders in our dirty clothes and that, for many reasons, creeps me out!

So here is my new hardest-working-room in the house.

It's pretty basic at this point - washer, dryer, baskets and dog feeding/drinking area.

I love the hooks on the wall.... don't love the color.  That will be going.  The pantry is just to the right (outside of the picture.)

But before I begin this project, what do you have in your laundry room that you love? 

What's in your laundry room that you hate?  

Mine needs a place for what I call "nasty" clothes... Hubs mechanic-ing clothes.... think gear oil, tranny fluid, etc. (I hate them... they stink and make my washing machine nasty)

Any wonderful suggestions that I simply MUST include?

Clue me in here, folks... let me learn from your mistakes and what you love!

mmmkkkkkkaaayyyy?  

Thanks! (and I will, of course, let you know how it goes)  

Wordless Wednesday: Why I hate laundry...

Can someone tell me.... is this normal?

There are only two grown adults living here and we have this many different breeds of socks!

It just ain't right....

(P.S. -- yes that's aluminum foil laying on the back of my couch and yes that's my bra in the background... and yes, that's even more proof at how lazy I am to not edit my own pictures.  So don't think to yourself, "oh, Whitney, how embarrassing!  You just posted a picture of your bra for anyone in the world to see!" because I know its there.  Just know it IS clean... I was doing laundry, after all.  And, yes, now I know that you will not even see the socks in this photo because you're going to be looking for my bra.  And, yes, I know this is supposed to be a 'wordless' post... and I've gone and shot that down now, haven't I?)
