It looks beautiful! Your husband is very talented and the two of you put together a wonderful space. It’s nice to have a place where you can enjoy doing laundry.
Absolutely love the rug! The color is beautiful and really makes the basement! Your basement is stunning. I love it...the cupboard, the gingham, the rug...all the little touches! You're very blessed with such a lovely laundry room! Tell Mike he is awesome!!
What a lovey basement space. I love your clean and minimalist style. It is fun to share your joy in creating something beautiful! And what a gift from the Lord to have a husband who can make your dreams into reality.
Such a wonderful space. I absolutely LOVE your grandfather's rug. It has sentimental value, is the right size and adds pizazz. If I were you, I'd put a few more touches of blue in the space, to tie in the blue of the rug. Don't be afraid of the colour. A grey blue is not shocking pink, lime green, or pumpkin orange. Your husband is amazing, meticulous and very creative. What a great team you are together!
Andrea, I think this new area is absolutely sensational! Every detail is so well thought out, warm, cozy, and inviting. How blessed you are to have such a remarkable husband who can do everything! Aww, your grandpa's rug is so perfect! How thrilled he would be to know that it is being used by your family in such a prominent location! The size, colors, pattern are tailor made for you! Doing laundry here really would be fun! Your videos ooze love, family values, and everything a loving home should be, Andrea! Linda
I have never seen a more beautiful laundry! Would never imagin its in a basement! Kudos to your imaginative hard working hubby. And your decorating. Wow!
Love, love the complete room. I can imagine your beautiful family making good use of it. I love the rug, the mutted colors are perfect. I would, however, change the curtains to 100% linen... I think that would tone down the colors even more. You and your husband are an inspiration!
My Dad was an Engineer at Ford. Living near Detroit, most families had someone involved in the auto industry. On weekends he worked on our basement and it took him two years! He put in a bar, gas fireplace, storage cabinets, moved the laundry tubs (cement) across the basement and built the laundry room next to the furnace. The laundry shoot was in that space too. OH!! And he built a laundry basket to catch the clothes! Made of peg board and moved about on wheels. Such a talented craftsman. Our basement was scary too before he transformed it. We had a fruit cellar that was by the bar and housed our old Frigidaire fridge. The living area with the fireplace was cozy. I have my memories of helping my Dad by being his gopher for his coffee! LOL!! I learned a LOT by watching him. I love your basement. It is so your style and your husband certainly can create your vision. It is all just lovely!
Oh my goodness this sounds so so beautiful and what amazing memories! It really makes such a difference having it finished. I also would love to have a laundry shoot! ❤
Oh Andrea, it is stunning! I love everything. I think of your style as serene, not minimalist. Your grandfather's rug is perfect. It reads neutral. I can go on and on, but I will spare you. And yes, you husband is a very talented man. Congratulations on your beautiful new space.🙋♀️
Your laundry room turned out beautiful. You have a talent for decorating and your husband has a lot of talent in construction. You both did a beautiful job with the whole house.
I love, love, love this laundry room! I would absolutely leave the little fabric panels. I think they match your style and home so well. Y'all did such a great job! So much thought and love was put into this space and it shows.
Hi Andrea! Wow! What.a beautiful space! Again, Mike did a phenomenal job on all the carpentry! I am amazed at how talented he is for someone so young. That's called a gift and he certainly has it. You have made it so "homey" with all of your exceptional creative decorating skills! If I were you, I would send this into a magazine like Country Living or one of the others out there. I really believe that more people should see what a great job you both did. It would be an inspiration to many others out there! You two just never cease to amaze me with your talents!
I love how the basement is turning out, it's beautiful. You have added so much value to your home. I would love to see an over all layout of your basement as to how it flows. Love the colors and flooring you guys choose. I also think having a space for guests to make coffee and heat up something separate from the kitchen is a fantastic idea.
So pretty! That’s my dream laundry room and I have that exact wood scrub brush and clothespins, jars, powdered detergent and powdered bleach in jars with a scoop, natural woven laundry baskets , and a wall hung sink ready to install. Genius ceiling idea! The minimal vibe looks clean and calm… you’re somewhat of a minimalist, finding beauty in pale but warm beige and off white colors with white for some contrast. Consider a small metal dish for pocket finds and an old wooden ironing board ❤ Love the drop leaf table idea as a narrow island and folding space ( I have one). Do you have a clothesline? I’m putting one in the yard. Maybe a “ Lost Socks “ clothespin sign or board.
This is the prettiest laundry room I’ve ever seen. You are one blessed lady. I have a closet n let me tell you it’s no picnic. Love all the paint colors n the hutch looks like it was meant to be. Just stunning.
A table would be GREAT for so many uses! Folding laundry, crafting, eating quite time for mom! I can see a long shallow basket with a handle on top of the hutch. So happy for you.
When we downsized six years ago to our little cottage,my sentimental Hoosier cabinet didn’t fit in my new kitchen or dining area. Since I wasn’t going to give it up,I put it in my basement next to my washer and dryer. I have all of my laundry/ sewing/ironing stuff in it with the same glass canisters. It actually turned out to be super practical as the large,shallow (silverware?) drawer fits all of my thread laying down so you can see the colors and my sewing machine sits on one end of the enamel counter top,which is so roomy when it’s pulled out. My basement isn’t finished but it’s not scary,(somewhere in between your two photos.) and I love how the Hoosier works down there.🙌🏻
Bravo! Absolutely outstanding! This space is a complete winner. This is the best that you and your husband has done. I can't find anything wrong with the space it just is so beautiful and functional and the sink is fantastic and your grandfather is rug and having the countertop to work on showing off some of your fines the crocs the little washboard little baskets the wooden pegs this is perfection. For the smaller older basements that are dark and dingy this is the number one prime example of what can be done. I am so excited for you because you deserve this and I know that it was a fun space to decorate. Mike did amazing work. Everything just has come together so nicely and I can't stop watching this video and how beautiful a space can be from such a dingy looking, yes scary, basement. Great job! Thumbs up to you and thumbs up to Mike and keep going. Make a greenhouse or a garden room outside and stay with that path because you're so good with this style and it does work for you. Congratulations on the new room and of course in a beautiful space like that, you should be excited about being down there and working. Let's make it fun.
Oh my goodness Denise, this was such a sweet comment to read through, thank you so much! I am so thankful for my husband and his determination and so happy to finally have this finished space 😊😊
Beautiful! On the side counter cabinets, you might consider painting the cabinet base showing behind the decorative cabinet legs a darker color, such as the floor gray, to further the illusion that the decorative legs are holding up the cabinets, and highlight their pretty shape. Just a thought, but not necessary--it all looks lovely!
Oh my word, I love the basement! I think the baskets on the pegs are perfect there. Your hubby is truly a blessing to you! Laundry is my favorite household chore and it would be so comforting and relaxing to do in this space! As always I love seeing what you do to your house. It is all gorgeous! Blessings!
Andrea, this space is so charming!! Both you and Mike did an amazing job. It’s definitely a good reminder that projects take time and not to get discouraged when something takes multiple years to be finished.
You both have done a remarkable job. And it is absolutely lovely. I think it is gratefulness that is the key in any home improvement . No matter where we start, being grateful for what one has at the moment gets us to the right mindset and when things progress and we see more improvements, are hearts are so much more grateful. You both truly have shown that gratefulness…..oh and by the way, I think I’m coming over with a few loads😂
You both did an amazing job pulling it all together. We had a similar situation in our basement, and had it refinished into a laundry, craft and exercise space. It took 3 years of planning and sourcing; an old executive desk that used to be in a law firm, a secretary desk from a vintage shop & a floor to ceiling wood and glass cabinet from the 1940’s that was used in the medical office of Endicott Johnson - a shoe company in my area. Hubby had to cut the top off the desk to fit it down the basement stairs and reassemble! I completely understood it when you said you love doing laundry now. Everything is clean, organized and pretty. The best thing is it’s easy to keep that way, too! Enjoy your new space to the fullest!
This is SUCH a hopeful video!!! I have a scary basement right now as we live in an early 1900’s farmhouse. I stand down there and work on laundry and think, “there’s got to be a way to make this space beautiful?!” And this video is so encouraging! I can’t WAIT to show my husband.
By the yard it’s hard by the inch it’s a cinch. Haven’t heard that quote for years. Lol. 💕 Mom of 3 grown sons here. We made our basement closet under the stairs where we kept all the sports equipment and boys stuff too. Hung a rod for winter coat storage and a shelf for boots etc. I hated my laundry room and 5 years ago my hubby redid it for me and now I LOVE IT! Love doing laundry. I also have open shelves, a large sink, 2 drying racks my hubby built and I have an old hutch where I display my vintage linens and sewing and laundry paraphernalia. Also pegs to hang towels to dry when coming in from the hot tub. It’s so practical but beautiful. Wish I could post pics here to show. I like the rug. The curtain fabric compliments beautifully.
I was looking forward to your laundry room reveal and was not disappointed. I think a drop leaf table would be perfect in that multi functional space. What a great idea. ❤️
Wow Angela, what a beautiful space you and your husband have created. You two are the dynamic duo. Love the decorating, its so quaint and clean looking. Many many blessings to your family🙏🏼🌷
I enjoy watching the finished projects!!! In my opinion, we don’t have to watch you decorate. Do what’s easiest for you!!! I LOVE IT!!! It’s BEAUTIFUL!!!😊❤
I too love and appreciate how other folks decorate their spaces, without necessarily feeling as though I ought to copy it/them. Isn't that one of the joys of decorating?!
Wow! Your laundry room came out amazing!! I love that you did it all yourselves without hiring people that would cost so much. You’re so blessed to have such a talented husband who is willing to take on a challenge and bring your dream to life. Your sink is gorgeous and it’s perfect for so many reasons; thinking it would be great to soak items when trying to either get stains out or even to whiten. I’m always looking for bowls big enough to soak items..ugh! I’m not fortunate enough to have a laundry area, my washer and dryer are a stackable in a closet off of my kitchen. It’s fine, but what wouldn’t give to have a homey and comfy space like yours. Your grandfather’s rug is perfect there! Try to keep it! It goes so well and even better has sentimental meaning. It all looks so good, be proud! And special shout out and kudos to your hubby! Keep up the good work! The bench reminds me of one my grandma used to have. Definitely keep it there, it’s the perfect spot, especially since I don’t think it will hold up in the outside elements (my grandma’s did not😢). You can always add storage baskets under the bench too. Keep sneakers, flip flops, garden gloves, winter gloves and hats, whatever you want to. The end results was worth the wait! Bravo to you!!!! 🎉 👏🏻
I can see why laundry is fun now! I love how you use the piece of furniture in the laundry room and it totally raises it to a new level. It does not feel like a basement room at all. This could just be a backroom off a mud room on the main level. Fabulous creativity!
Oh Andrea, I love the way it all turned out!! You are so blessed to have a husband that can do so much carpenter work! My husband is more of a tech guy, he will try to make things for me but really doesn't have the right tools, but he can certainly hang things I buy and find studs in the walls! He can make a mean wooden box though, LOL! I have been thinking of using an old washtub, too, in my laundry room. The plumbing would be tricky since the hole in the tub is much smaller than current day sink pipes. I am hoping to find a plumber that can come up with a solution. I use one of my washtubs in the garden to wash up my homegrown vegies before bringing them in the house and another one I'll fill with water to water my potted plants around the patio.
Your husband is very talented to make your visions for a space become a reality. The bench is a perfect addition to the area and will be a perfect spot for your adorable sons to take off their boots. Thanks for sharing.❤
Such an amazing transformation. Your husband has a gift in his carpentry skills!! I love the colors of everything. The room also seems so bright and cheery! I wouldn't mind doing laundry in this space. Your home is so lovely and cozy. I noticed the sink right away and it is beautiful. You both make a great makeover team! Thank you for sharing!
Wow. It's such a gorgeous space now. I would never be able to have a vision like you both do. It was worth the hard work and years of waiting for sure.
...yes. Hope!..together, Andrea, you and your husband have made an esthetic home ..... id love to spend time in your home....and, your boys have a rich heritage in the making.. .blessings!
Seriously amazing job!! You could use little clothes pins and hang missing socks on the drying rack? Or you could use it as a place to hang drying flowers on ribbons just as decor. I know the point was the use it more functionally, but at least it filled the gap.
I love your basement - it’s so cute! Great job❣️I think my laundry room is one of my favorite rooms - I think as long as you have to be in there so much, you might as well make it cute. I really love your sink area - it’s so cute.
Such a great functional and beautiful space now. Your Mike is alot like my husband he can do anything too. Your very lucky he's so handy. You will enjoy this laundry area so much.
I would sure love to do laundry if I had your warm laundry room. Gee you could have a friend over and share a cup of coffee down there😊. You and your husband really did a lot of work and persevered through it all…. I love your grandpa’s rug. I have seen other things you got from your grandpa…..what good taste he had and still has in Heaven. 🥰
I like the inspiring poem at the end. I say there are two kinds of people when it comes to overwhelming situations. There are those who are so stymied, they have no idea how to even begin, so don’t. Then there are those who realize that if they simply begin by tackling small portions at a time, the overwhelming situation will eventually be overcome!
Wow...beautiful laundry room!!! I wouldn't wanna come out. 😄 I love how you decorated--perfect. The bench looks cute there. You and your hubby make an amazing diy team.

yes, your Grandfather's rug could not be more perfect for that space. Spot on.
It looks beautiful! Your husband is very talented and the two of you put together a wonderful space. It’s nice to have a place where you can enjoy doing laundry.
Thank you so much! I am so thankful for him and all he is able to do! 😊
The prettiest laundry area EVER. Period. Good job, hubby! Thanks, Andrea, for the inspiration!
Your home should be in a magazine! Your darling husband should have his own company a! Brilliantly finished! Wow!!
Your laundry room is beautiful. I love the rug. It’s stunning and I think it goes perfectly in the space.
Absolutely love the rug! The color is beautiful and really makes the basement! Your basement is stunning. I love it...the cupboard, the gingham, the rug...all the little touches! You're very blessed with such a lovely laundry room! Tell Mike he is awesome!!
Aww thank you so much, I will pass that along to Mike as well 😊😊
Okay I just found your channel! ❤ where did you get your artificial plants? And what kind of plant is in the metal tall canister ?
What a lovey basement space. I love your clean and minimalist style. It is fun to share your joy in creating something beautiful! And what a gift from the Lord to have a husband who can make your dreams into reality.
Your Grandpa's rug looks perfect there!!!

Andrea, I think this new area is absolutely sensational! Every detail is so well thought out, warm, cozy, and inviting. How blessed you are to have such a remarkable husband who can do everything!
Aww, your grandpa's rug is so perfect! How thrilled he would be to know that it is being used by your family in such a prominent location! The size, colors, pattern are tailor made for you!
Doing laundry here really would be fun! Your videos ooze love, family values, and everything a loving home should be, Andrea! Linda
I have never seen a more beautiful laundry! Would never imagin its in a basement!
Kudos to your imaginative hard working hubby. And your decorating. Wow!
It's now a room rather than a space. Really nice. I could see little boys socks on the bottom rails of the drying rack.
Thank you so much, and yes there are little things here and there that could dry there 😊
Love, love the complete room. I can imagine your beautiful family making good use of it. I love the rug, the mutted colors are perfect. I would, however, change the curtains to 100% linen... I think that would tone down the colors even more.
You and your husband are an inspiration!

oh my gosh... I see a lot of laundry room makeovers, but this is by far my favorite!
The most gorgeous laundry room I’ve ever seen! You will look forward to doing laundry now!
Your laundry area ia beautiful. Your grandpa's rug looks great.
Oh Andrea, it is stunning! I love everything. I think of your style as serene, not minimalist. Your grandfather's rug is perfect. It reads neutral. I can go on and on, but I will spare you. And yes, you husband is a very talented man. Congratulations on your beautiful new space.🙋♀️
Your laundry room turned out beautiful. You have a talent for decorating and your husband has a lot of talent in construction. You both did a beautiful job with the whole house.
That is absolutely the right rug ! Yes.
Such a lovely design. Looks so nice yet practical. Love the bench. Works well.
A hutch in a laundry room....who knew!!!! You and hubby knew!!! Little by little...!!!! ... it's beautiful!! Fun to do laundry??? Great job ❤😊
I love, love, love this laundry room! I would absolutely leave the little fabric panels. I think they match your style and home so well. Y'all did such a great job! So much thought and love was put into this space and it shows.
Hi Andrea! Wow! What.a beautiful space! Again, Mike did a phenomenal job on all the carpentry! I am amazed at how talented he is for someone so young. That's called a gift and he certainly has it.

Wow!…the basement turned out beautiful and please keep the rug 🤍
Thank you so much, we are almost done with the entire thing. I am so excited! ♥
I love how the basement is turning out, it's beautiful. You have added so much value to your home. I would love to see an over all layout of your basement as to how it flows. Love the colors and flooring you guys choose. I also think having a space for guests to make coffee and heat up something separate from the kitchen is a fantastic idea.
Thank you! Once the other side is completely done with the bathroom, I am really hoping it is the perfect space to host ❤
So pretty! That’s my dream laundry room and I have that exact wood scrub brush and clothespins, jars, powdered detergent and powdered bleach in jars with a scoop, natural woven laundry baskets , and a wall hung sink ready to install. Genius ceiling idea!
The minimal vibe looks clean and calm… you’re somewhat of a minimalist, finding beauty in pale but warm beige and off white colors with white for some contrast.
Consider a small metal dish for pocket finds and an old wooden ironing board ❤
Love the drop leaf table idea as a narrow island and folding space ( I have one).
Do you have a clothesline? I’m putting one in the yard.
Maybe a “ Lost Socks “ clothespin sign or board.
I would actually enjoy doing laundry in that pretty space🌿
Thank you ❤❤
This is the prettiest laundry room I’ve ever seen. You are one blessed lady. I have a closet n let me tell you it’s no picnic. Love all the paint colors n the hutch looks like it was meant to be. Just stunning.
Thank you for this very sweet comment Cathy!
Love all the different elements in your laundry room. Definitely wouldn’t mind doing my laundry downstairs. Many blessings.
A table would be GREAT for so many uses! Folding laundry, crafting, eating quite time for mom! I can see a long shallow basket with a handle on top of the hutch. So happy for you.
Thank you Arlene, and I agree on the table, now to find the perfect one! ❤
Looks great Andrea. You have done an amazing transformation on your home. Would love to see a full before and after video. What a difference!!
When we downsized six years ago to our little cottage,my sentimental Hoosier cabinet didn’t fit in my new kitchen or dining area. Since I wasn’t going to give it up,I put it in my basement next to my washer and dryer. I have all of my laundry/ sewing/ironing stuff in it with the same glass canisters. It actually turned out to be super practical as the large,shallow (silverware?) drawer fits all of my thread laying down so you can see the colors and my sewing machine sits on one end of the enamel counter top,which is so roomy when it’s pulled out. My basement isn’t finished but it’s not scary,(somewhere in between your two photos.) and I love how the Hoosier works down there.🙌🏻
Bravo! Absolutely outstanding! This space is a complete winner. This is the best that you and your husband has done. I can't find anything wrong with the space it just is so beautiful and functional and the sink is fantastic and your grandfather is rug and having the countertop to work on showing off some of your fines the crocs the little washboard little baskets the wooden pegs this is perfection. For the smaller older basements that are dark and dingy this is the number one prime example of what can be done. I am so excited for you because you deserve this and I know that it was a fun space to decorate. Mike did amazing work. Everything just has come together so nicely and I can't stop watching this video and how beautiful a space can be from such a dingy looking, yes scary, basement. Great job!

What a beautiful space! Had you hired someone, it probably wouldn’t have been this special or even special to you.
I never would have imaged that you could make such a “not pretty” space look so beautiful! Your husband is a genius!
Beautiful! On the side counter cabinets, you might consider painting the cabinet base showing behind the decorative cabinet legs a darker color, such as the floor gray, to further the illusion that the decorative legs are holding up the cabinets, and highlight their pretty shape.

Laundry is my favorite household chore and it would be so comforting and relaxing to do in this space! As always I love seeing what you do to your house. It is all gorgeous! Blessings!
So nice!
I love it. You can coat the bench with a wax sealer to preserve it.
This is the most beautiful and charming laundry room I've ever seen! Truly lovely!
Andrea, this space is so charming!! Both you and Mike did an amazing job. It’s definitely a good reminder that projects take time and not to get discouraged when something takes multiple years to be finished.
Yes, that is really what I hope I can encourage people with! ❤

It's just perfect and lovely neutral colors. Your husband is a keeper! Enjoy your new space. Love your channel.
The drying rack is so pretty and cute, I would hang all the socks missing their matching partners in crime there 😅
Haha! That is a great idea!
By the yard it’s hard by the inch it’s a cinch. Haven’t heard that quote for years. Lol. 💕
Mom of 3 grown sons here. We made our basement closet under the stairs where we kept all the sports equipment and boys stuff too.

Wow Angela, what a beautiful space you and your husband have created. You two are the dynamic duo. Love the decorating, its so quaint and clean looking. Many many blessings to your family🙏🏼🌷
Love your grandpa's rug. Beautiful space.
it's beautiful! This is a work space and there's absolutely nothing wrong with it bringing joy too! Your husband is a gem!
You have such a beautiful decorating style! I love everything you’ve done.
Your husband is amazing and your decorating in this space is so calming and relaxing!
Aw, thank you so much, I am so thankful for him!
Just beautiful. I know you are so thankful.
I really am, thank you so much Janice ❤
It looks beautiful. Doing your laundry will be a pleasure. You are blessed that your hubby can do this work.
What a great inviting space! You should be very proud, Andrea! Mike is a gem!❤ I can tell, you are giddy with excitement! 😊
I enjoy watching the finished projects!!!
In my opinion, we don’t have to watch you decorate.
Do what’s easiest for you!!!
I LOVE IT!!!
It’s BEAUTIFUL!!!😊❤
Ok, so this is a big laundry room. It’s gorgeous!
Your laundry room looks absolutely beautiful.
Does anyone else automatically hit the like button before you even watch her?! You’re so precious and such an inspiration! Thank you for sharing!
Looks beautiful Andrea I could live down there 😍
I love Grandpa's rug, I was actually hoping it was new so I could buy it.
Wowowow looks better than my kitchen! Lol beautiful as usual. Every time I look at your home I want to change it all like yours lol
I too love and appreciate how other folks decorate their spaces, without necessarily feeling as though I ought to copy it/them. Isn't that one of the joys of decorating?!
Wow! Your laundry room came out amazing!! I love that you did it all yourselves without hiring people that would cost so much.

Oh Andrea, I love the way it all turned out!! You are so blessed to have a husband that can do so much carpenter work! My husband is more of a tech guy, he will try to make things for me but really doesn't have the right tools, but he can certainly hang things I buy and find studs in the walls! He can make a mean wooden box though, LOL! I have been thinking of using an old washtub, too, in my laundry room. The plumbing would be tricky since the hole in the tub is much smaller than current day sink pipes. I am hoping to find a plumber that can come up with a solution. I use one of my washtubs in the garden to wash up my homegrown vegies before bringing them in the house and another one I'll fill with water to water my potted plants around the patio.
Your husband is very talented to make your visions for a space become a reality. The bench is a perfect addition to the area and will be a perfect spot for your adorable sons to take off their boots. Thanks for sharing.❤
He truly is so amazing, and I love the bench as well! ❤
Such an amazing transformation. Your husband has a gift in his carpentry skills!! I love the colors of everything. The room also seems so bright and cheery! I wouldn't mind doing laundry in this space. Your home is so lovely and cozy. I noticed the sink right away and it is beautiful. You both make a great makeover team! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you so much, I will pass that along to him. It was a long process, but very worth it! 😊
I love the finished basement . So relaxing and inviting with the minimal decor .
Thank you so much Shannon!
Wow. It's such a gorgeous space now. I would never be able to have a vision like you both do. It was worth the hard work and years of waiting for sure.
All is very pretty! Your husband did a beautiful job! I love everything!! ❤
Oh my Andrea...you guys outdid yourselves.
Your laundry room is beautiful. Everything goes together so well. Glory be to God!
Thank you so much, and yes I am so thankful!
...yes. Hope!..together, Andrea, you and your husband have made an esthetic home ..... id love to spend time in your home....and, your boys have a rich heritage in the making.. .blessings!
Thank you so much Debbie, I pray you are right, I am so thankful for my husband and his talents! ❤
A beautiful, cozy, useful laundry room / basement. Such a great addition of space to your home❤
I love the bench there in the basement. What a transformation! Lovely!
Seriously amazing job!! You could use little clothes pins and hang missing socks on the drying rack? Or you could use it as a place to hang drying flowers on ribbons just as decor. I know the point was the use it more functionally, but at least it filled the gap.
Exactly,leave that one there for what Jenny suggested and buy or make a larger one for clothing.
Oh my goodness I LOVE it!!! It’s so calming! Fantastic job!
Thank you so much Heidi! 😊
It's beautiful! Your husband is so talented.
The rug looks beautiful in the room. The room itself is lovely. Thank you for sharing your space❣️
Makes me want my laundry in the basement again. You are genius. I would have never thought a basement laundry room could be so gorgeous.
Beautiful laundry room.
I love your basement - it’s so cute! Great job❣️I think my laundry room is one of my favorite rooms - I think as long as you have to be in there so much, you might as well make it cute. I really love your sink area - it’s so cute.
It's oh so beautiful! Wonderful job and beautifully decorated. High-five 🙌 to your hubby for his hard work too. 😊
My favorite laundry room ever. Great job😊

Such a great functional and beautiful space now. Your Mike is alot like my husband he can do anything too. Your very lucky he's so handy. You will enjoy this laundry area so much.
Hi Andrea! It's wonderful. Well let's face it...I love your whole house. It's such a feel good dwelling.
I would sure love to do laundry if I had your warm laundry room. Gee you could have a friend over and share a cup of coffee down there😊. You and your husband really did a lot of work and persevered through it all…. I love your grandpa’s rug. I have seen other things you got from your grandpa…..what good taste he had and still has in Heaven. 🥰
Yes, he really had amazing taste and I love being able to use so many of his pieces throughout my home! Thank you so much for your sweet words ❤❤
Absolutely beautiful room.
The saying.....less is more....holds true in your case! 🤗
I like the inspiring poem at the end. I say there are two kinds of people when it comes to overwhelming situations. There are those who are so stymied, they have no idea how to even begin, so don’t. Then there are those who realize that if they simply begin by tackling small portions at a time, the overwhelming situation will eventually be overcome!
Wow...beautiful laundry room!!! I wouldn't wanna come out. 😄 I love how you decorated--perfect. The bench looks cute there. You and your hubby make an amazing diy team.
It’s the right rug!! ❤
That’s the coziest laundry room I have ever seen.. I love it! Thanks for sharing and I hope y’all have a blessed week darlings
