I've painted, cleaned and it's DONE
(Updated POST, added the paint color and how I used this color in my kitchen) This is post has a life of its own. It's my number ONE pin on Pinterest and if you'd like to follow my Pinterest boards I'm HERE My New site www.bethanndoing.com
Our little condo has a closet for the Laundry Room and I just didn't like it, plus I couldn't reach the shelf without being on my tip toes !
I moved everything out of our little kitchen dining area,
we don't use it. Than went to Lowe's
Want to see a grown man shiver in his work boots ?
Walk into Lowe's with a yellow legal pad, tape measure and pictures from
pinterest ! ! ! Yes, it was a metal tape measure not cloth, I've learned, they will laugh out loud at you, I know I did it....once.

My drying time was less with the cabinets in the air conditioning, in the garage and in Florida, it would have taken quite a bit longer for them to dry.

This is 3 coats of the Valspar Latex Enamel Paint
Trick ONE, I get the better brushes HERE, NOT the cheap ones from Lowe's.
They wash great and no hairs come out like the other ones !
Trick TWO is a BROWN paper sack, paper is the finest sand paper. BUT, it must be a BROWN sack. The only one I had in the house was from a little quilt shop in McKinney, TX, Stitched with Love, their site. Cut the sack open and I like to fold it in and use just as sand paper, it makes the paint and wood soft !
Everything out ! CLEANED and Taped walls
How often do you move your washer and dryer?
I'm going to have to do it more often...it's been 5 years for me. And, from the looks of it, too LONG !
LOVE the Blue
First Cabinet up !
This is the "AFTER" I love it. Besides time this was not that expensive of a project, cabinets and paint about 150 dollars,
I like !

ReplyDeleteLooks wonderful! I have an ugly basement for my laundry room. Ugh. Someday, when we move, I want a pretty laundry room =)
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty and inviting place to work!!! I love the color and the cabinets and the hanger rack. How clever to turn an ugly utilitarian closet into an attractive and useful work place. Thank you for sharing this. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat color blue is this?
ReplyDeleteWhat size cabinets did you use?
ReplyDeleteI love your laundry closet! I too have one in my condo in Lake Placid Fl . I have a coupe questions. Did you leave the doors on after you were done? Also did you use the paper bag to sand the cupboards before or after painting or both? I plan on replacing my washer & dryer as mine is too noisy being close to the living room. I may get the front loader and put a counter over both. Thank you for your idea and for sharing how you did it.
ReplyDeleteHello, use the brown paper sack, before paint and after if you like a smoother feel. And yes the doors are on, our guest bath door is right across from laundry closet makes it a bit hidden. Good luck, go slow and enjoy the process.
DeleteCan you tell me what size the closest was.
ReplyDeleteStandard laundry closet, it was already my laundry!
