Here are some tips and tricks for homeowners to help make their laundry room a desirable place to be by considering location, colour and clutter.
Hard to imagine, isn't it? Looking forward to fluffing and folding, enjoying the hum of the machine, and spending your spare time ironing in the laundry room while whistling away…sound like a scene from Desperate Housewives? Believe it or not, it's NOT too good to be true. There are plenty of tips and tricks to make the laundry room a desirable place to be!
More and more, the laundry room is being built in the main room of the house, off the kitchen, or off the master bedroom. This means laundry room décor is more important than ever. Pick a paint colour that you're fond of, but wouldn't normally appear in a main room– like a calming violet, or a cheerful pink. The laundry room can be a place to live out décor dreams!
Organizing is the key to an ideal laundry room - nobody enjoys a mess. Set up different laundry containers for colours, clothing types, and hand-washables and have the kids sort their own laundry. This will make things efficient and easy come laundry day. Another great tip is to mount a flip laundry board to the wall, so you can easily tuck it away when it's not in use. Extra hanging bars installed in the laundry room also give you room to hang-dry items without having to lay them on the floor or counter.
Invest in a high-tech, high-efficiency washer and dryer! There's nothing like having the laundry machine take the guess work out of laundry for you – the GE Profile SmartDispense laundry pair will automatically dispense the right amount of soap and water, and even get out 40 different stains. You won't have to worry about turning socks pink or ruining your silk blouses ever again! Not to mention, it comes in three pretty colours. Check out www.stopguessing.ca for more information.
