Just a ‘lil laundry love – Pennies 'n Grace

With a household of seven, laundry is not for the faint of heart. 😆 I used to hate it with a passion, but now, I actually enjoy completing this task each day. I typically make myself a cup of coffee and sit and fold two loads while our kindergartner does her Bible class. Our sweet one-year old insists on helping me and hands me each article of clothing naming who it belongs to. After folding is complete, everyone grabs their pile and puts it away where it belongs!

Our laundry room functions as a laundry, storage, freezer, and school supply space. When we moved in there was just a washer and dryer. My sweet honey built me some easy wall to wall shelves above the washer and dryer. I put a quick coat of stain on them, and voila! A little curtain love and a cute brown rug hid the other eyesores in the room.

I have found the baskets/crates/ organization bins for super cheap at yard sales. I had planned to make a laundry sign after selling mine back in SC. However, someone gave me a gift card for Hobby Lobby before Christmas and I found this metal sign on clearance for $10!
Our school cabinet doesn’t fit very well in this space so, I have been actively scouring marketplace and craigslist for something to replace this beast. It is almost 10 years old and had a few “injuries” this last move, but it has served our family well over the years for sure. So, as soon as I can find something to function for our school space this one will go!

Our little chest freezer sits to the right of the doorway and it fits perfectly. I plan to hang a drying rack or a shelf above it and put some hooks on the wall behind the door for our brooms/mops.
