Thank you so much Juliette! I greatly appreciate the wonderful compliment! 😊 I'm very happy to hear I've inspired you! Don't worry - I have no plans of stopping! 😊
How long has it been since Sarah’s house season 3?! I STILL to this day dream of that mud room kitchen and dining room. Never new I liked white, yellow and red so much until this show.
That chicken slipping on the shiny wooden floor and making a quick retreat to the tiled floor, well that just got me laughing. So Sarah now you need to design a wallpaper for mud rooms called Chicken Scratch! I love all your videos.
Love your shows! The red paint on your mud room doors is a nod to French Burnt Peanut candy! One of my favorite candy peanuts. Not to be confused with Boston Baked Beans, which are smooth coated and a deeper red. The Burnt Peanuts are bumpy. Google it! I'm old, so I remember that candy.
Having my AM bev with Sarah is THE best way to start my Saturday!!☕️☕️☕️ When you have the option of installing the floor, do you ever include under floor heating? A floor covering is certainly pretty and can bring a room together, but a bear to clean! I'd opt for nothing or an indoor/outdoor rug that can be hosed off or tossed ... LOL Burnt Peanut is a winner!!!
I saw this when you first did it and I too still love it!! Have been a fan since Room Service along with my daughter who has Down Syndrome, love everything you do!! Have love seeing you all these years, and your family is fabulous also!!! Keep going, you're amazing!!!
Thank you Alexis! If you ever want to find a particular tip from one of the mudrooms feel free to check out my website! you can find all those tips here: sarahrichardsondesign.com/get-inspired/tips/2021/02/12/functional-fabulous-mudroom-ideas
I’m rewatching these episodes while not so patiently waiting for your next episode! All of these mud rooms are gorgeous. It makes me want an episode on Laundry Rooms 🧺 I’m tackling mine in a few weeks and I rewatch these episodes trying to soak up all the fabulous SR ideas!!
You are such a breath of fresh air, no matter the weather! Wonderful tips and ideas......loved the added features of Daisy and the chickens! They match everything! 😊
I'm your biggest fan Sarah. Every interior design you do is perfection. Season 4 of Sarah's House main bathroom looks like heaven. And the huge artwork in the foyer=Brilliant!!
Thank you very much Doane 😊! You're very kind! What was your favourite tip from this episode? I hope you stay tuned as I've got a ton more content on the way!
I love all of these mudroom spaces! I'm always trying to figure out a better more functional way to organize our entrance/mudroom on a budget. Colour revamp might be in order soon!
Another fantastic informative video.. you always give us a plethora of great ideas and information.. so happy I found your channel .. love the mud rooms 😊
I had to laugh when you thought the red doors had a silly paint name, but in fact it's a pretty accurate description. Burnt Peanuts are a delicious candy coated peanut and they were one of my favorite treats when I would visit my mother's family in Quebec! Look them up, you'll have a good laugh at the very least!
this gave me soooo much inspiration. My mud room is also my laundry room that the previous owner used as a sewing/quilting room. It simply didn't work for me for that even as a quilter, not the right light. I now have at least the slightest inkling on how to make it super cool and functional. THANKS so very much!!!
I'm glad you enjoyed the episode Paulette! 😊 If you ever wanted to go back and get those tips again please check out the article for this episode on my website! sarahrichardsondesign.com/get-inspired/tips/2021/02/12/functional-fabulous-mudroom-ideas
😍🙌👏 Absolutely love every room you touch. I need you're help renovating my home 🏘️ I think with both of our incredible designer eyes working together would create an absolute work of art. You are my favorite Canadian designer🇨🇦❣️
Good aftenoon Sarah , great furniture modernization and beautiful decor , what about cleanliness in your home - it's up to you , to keep the surfaces in your home clean or not , good health to you Sarah and your family .
Those spaces are all so pretty. My little entryway now houses hooks for fabric face masks and a basket with the paper ones. Also an easy to use hand sanitizer in a pretty hand soap pump as well as sanitizer wipes. 😔 Hopefully it won’t be this way for much longer. 🤞🏻
I LOVE your older designs the best. They are all so bright, cheery and happy. ❤️❤️. Not a fan of the current gray looks. Too dreary for my taste. I’m ready for the warmer colors to come back again.
Sarah, Love the episode on mudrooms, very informative. In the last section, can you comment on the manufacturer of the grey chair? Love the look and would like to find the chair. Thank you.
Hey Doug! I'm glad you loved the episode, thanks for watching! I assume you mean the chair thats behind me? The chair itself comes from www.elleandeve.ca/ and the fabric was from www.tonicliving.ca/.
Hey Sarah! Great ideas! Definitely going to use the double door idea!! Also, could you please tell me what breed of dog Daisy is? She is so cute!! Thank you and have a great day! :)
Well if feel better now that I'm not the only one who loves mudrooms! I took my laundry room out and made it a walk in mudroom for by large family and my winter coat collection! lol But now I have 3 large boys to men and we need to redo the room from kid storage to adult storage! Any suggestions on it?
Hey Carmen 😊 How can someone NOT love mudrooms?! I would love to help out with your mudroom however I really would need to see it before I can really comment. If you're able, increasing the storage space always helps! There are a ton of great tips here in this article that I'm sure will be a great help! sarahrichardsondesign.com/get-inspired/tips/2021/02/12/functional-fabulous-mudroom-ideas
One thing I hate is a mudroom/laundry room combo. Makes no sense to me so we’ve moved our laundry away from the garage entrance in two houses we built. Gotta make it work for our lifestyle. People think we are crazy but it’s our house and not reselling for many years. Loved the inspiration maybe we’ll add some more colour.
Still not sure, yes chickens in the house? No? Maybe 🐔 I love the colored doors look. I think once I finally paint my cabinets, I'm going to paint the interior side of the entry door the same color which is a very pale blue💕❤
Beautiful hardworking rooms! Question about the dark doors or color doors … In the case of the red doors, aqua, or beautiful blue … which doors or how many to paint in that color? Exterior doors, inside and outside, in a beautiful cranberry or deep blue: no problem. If you have 8 interior doors, in addition to the exterior doors, all on the main floor, do you paint them all? How much is too much? Better to just do all the doors in the whole house the same?
Any tips on flooring for a mud room that is unheated? Existing flooring is cement pad with peel and stick tiles, but they peel up in places in the winter for obvious reasons (Canadian cold). Actually, my front porch mud room is also unheated but with wood floors. Either way, good flooring for unheated spaces?
Our house is also on a slab. When we renovated the master bath, we installed under floor heating and then tile over it. It is heaven! and not expensive....
We have it throughout our house. It is a beautiful designer chosen, matte hickory look with a very subtle scraped surface, key word subtle. It looks so good & is worry free.
It is evil!! I used a product from Home Depot called Polyblend Grout Renew. It's a grout stain & sealer in one. Basically they have a bunch of colors & you can make any grout any color you choose by applying this product. Mop water had stained my white grout, so I used the white Grout Renew & my grout looked brand new. It cleans so easy with this product on & I've only had to reapply it once about 5 years after the first application.
For me, the perfect mudroom would certainly be attached to and provide entry to the home, but would not actually be a part of the decorated home. As you like to put it so practically it’s a.”Mud” room that is going to find itself abused by muddy boots and shoes and sports equipment for all seasons and a lot of wet muck that will eventually become various grades of sandy grit are going to get on practically every surface below the shins and possibly higher if it happens to also be on children’s hands. My mudroom would be a waterproof space best if it was just made out of highly durable plastic something something like that that could be moulded and shaped into walls and floors and benches and cabinets for holding clothing and footwear when it needs to be tucked away that would all slope down to central drain. Included in the mudroom there would be hot and cold running water on a wall attached to an outlet where a hose of necessary length could be attached and when it came time to clean the mudroom, everything could be banged and beaten, and have the most of the crap on. It knocked off, stored away in the cupboards and then the room totally hosed down and everything cleaned way down that central drain. Tap turned off fan turned on, room allowed to dry and then carry on until the end of the week or the end of the month when you decide it’s time to hose it all down again. I see absolutely no reason why anyone would spend any kind of money trying to decorate a mud room to try to incorporate its look and design into the rest of the home that you have spent a lot of money on and are trying to keep free from all that crap that gets captured in a mudroom. Mudroom is a mudroom. Make it a mudroom make it simple to clean, close the door and forget it’s there and until you have to come in or out again. That would be a dream mudroom for me. I don’t have that, but what I do have is a garage level entry into my home and I keep all my crap and my dogs crap out there. And I can tell you I’m not decorating my garage. It’s a garage. Other than that, you are definitely definitely my all-time favourite decorator. I love watching your shows. I love how you take such a practical approach to creating a great design yet keeping the cost down by mixing and matching costly design elements with less costly ones, especially those that recycle or cycle. I have not watched 100% of what you’ve done, but I have certainly followed you since the early days of your career and I’ve watched most of what you’ve done and I could always live with any of it and know that I would be very, very happy mudroom aside your fab.
It looks great but the shelves are so high and you would have to use a stool to get down baskets and go through everything in the basket to get what you need .
I'm siding with the Minister of Finance on letting the chickens in the mudroom/kitchen!!! The chickens are actually "blessing" your house and - and they will be more relaxed when they can get a feel for and peep at where their eggs (and eventually) some of them will end up. Just sayin... LOL! Our long horn steer were always trying to get into our house when we lived on our farm years ago. The funniest/weirdest thing to see. Thank goodness their horns were too wide to get through to doors. So chickens in the mudroom/kitchen is quite apropos and funny! Way to go Min of Finance! LOL!!!
A Long horn steer!? My goodness! The chickens can sometimes be a little troublesome but I can't imagine dealing with a steer trying to get in! Thank you for sharing your story! By the way it's the minister of exteriors, not finance 😊
@@SarahRichardsonDsgn DOINK!!!!! I knew that... : / I've been working on budgets for grant applications so much I didn't even realize I wrote "finance" instead of Exteriors. Of course that makes more sense that the Minister of Exteriors has chickens in the mudroom! LOL!
Your spaces are always wonderful. My mudroom is also the laundry, incl sink. It's a teeny, tiny narrow rectangle , with door to garage and door to kitchen opposite each other on one end, sink in the middle and washer and dryer on the other end, with cabinets above them that I can't reach. Somehow I would like to add shelving to store cases of cat food, a place for boxes of cat litter, a place to store broom, mop, bucket, and vacuum because there's no closet for those things, either. Would be important to find an adequate place for the cat litter box itself because you definitely don't want to know where it is now, lol. A place to put unwashed laundry and sit grocery bags as they are brought in would also be a bonus, but that's out of the question. It feels hopeless and the area is always a disaster.
Sarah. Those ARE NOT MUDROOMS. Those are fancy schmancy oh so too neat & tidy, totally glammy, "don't you dare add a spot mud in here!" rooms! I mean, who would WANT to mess those rooms up when they all look SO dang gorgeous??? Cute cute cute!
Some really good ideas. But where is Tommy? Why doesn't anybody speak and tell me after all the years you were with him where is Tommy? Why isn't he hanging with you and being your sidekick. Sorry, I want Tommy over your husband any freaking day. Let's bring back Tommy why isn't he a part of this, talk about them invite him back what's going on?
Minister of Exteriors’ dad jokes and chickens 😂
Love the humor he adds. And as always, beautiful designs by Sarah. ☺️
Sarah Richardson, thank you so much for injecting my life with your love for home.
Sarah is the "Queen of Mud Rooms!" ...all are so beautiful and uniquely different. Luv them all.😊💗
Thank you Snoozy! Im so happy you loved the episode! Which mudroom was your favourite though? Please let me know!
@@SarahRichardsonDsgn so hard to pick one! The barn board one sticks out as a favorite. ( but the Scandanavian styled one was a close second!)

Love the red doors and the curtians! What is the curtain fabric in that mudroom.
Gorgeous rooms
