One Room Challenge: Laundry Room Design Plan

Published: Oct 4, 2017 · Modified: Feb 3, 2023 by Morgan · As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases. This site contains affiliate links. ·

We are so excited to be playing in another One Room Challenge - a twice annual event where bloggers makeover a whole room in their house in just 6 weeks! We are so excited to be making over our Laundry Room this time! I am nervous because as I write this, we really haven't done anything to prepare (usually by the time we start blogging I've got at least 2 weeks of content done!) and we are going out of town for a week in the middle. Eek! We will see how this goes.

One Room Challenge: Laundry Room Design Plan via Charleston Crafted

Our laundry room is really a blank slate. Tan walls, popcorn ceilings, wire shelving. I am excited to infuse some fun and function into this space. The overall feel will be blue and white, mimicking the rest of our home. I am going to layer in natural wood tones, as well as woven and metal textures to give this space a layered look. Hopefully it is pretty straight forward and turns out to be really functional for us.

Laundry Room Design Plan

One Room Challenge: Laundry Room Design Plan via Charleston Crafted

  • Scrape the popcorn ceiling
  • Remove all existing shelving
  • Paint the walls and ceiling
  • Add new custom wooden shelving
  • Add a custom counter top
  • Make DIY bins and an organization system for the shelving
  • Hang a (reclaimed) cabinet) & re-hang the drying rod
  • Replace the light fixture
  • Add a decorative touch to the big white wall
  • Accessorize!

I am really excited for this project because it will be a huge functionality boost for us, and it's one of the last rooms in our house that is still in OG condition. Y'all, what am I going to do once I run out of rooms?!
