Laundry Room Refresh: Making Chores Modern & Sexy

This was another project that required us to remove everything and start fresh. Our washer broke unexpectedly so I was more than happy to take advantage and start ripping the tile out…much to my husband’s dismay! He let me do the demo on the floor and graciously steamed the wallpaper off (mostly by himself)…honestly, the wallpaper was probably the worst thing I’ve ever had to do and it took FOREVER! We decided on a clean crisp look for the walls and went with midnight blue appliances, which I love!
