Wooden Shelf Between Washer And Dryer

Easy Updates In Our Laundry Room

The first one is our laundry room, and with three kids and non-stop laundry this room quickly became my priority!Today I am going to show you the initial steps we took in the laundry room including painting and building a simple folding shelf over our washer and dryer.

This has created a much more efficient laundry system and made life much easier, and dare I say made doing laundry more enjoyable!

The room is a very basic 8×6′ space, I needed storage and an area to store laundry so a workspace was at the top of the list.

To do this, I tried out the Wagner Smart Flow Roller and I have to say, this made painting the walls a breeze.

In between my washer and dryer I had a whopping 11″ and when I saw that IKEA makes a shorter version of the HYLLIS Shelf I knew it was perfect for a rolling storage cart that slots right into the space.With the addition of some casters, a wooden storage box and some corner brackets I was able to turn a simple IKEA HYLLIS shelf into an industrial rolling storage cart that is ideal for any tight space.
