Laundry Room Organization
• Laundry…definitely not a fun chore, but with a well organized space it makes it a little easier (and faster) to get done!
• If there isn’t a good system in place, laundry rooms can become a catch all for junk, and lots of old, unused cleaning products.
•Get it cleaned out, sorted into categories, install systems, and slap some labels on it! Keep scrolling….you’ll see.
Clean it out! Everything!
Trash the old and only keep what you will use.
Line the shelves with shelf liner or contact paper if it’s needed..
Sort the items you are keeping into like categories.
Measure the space.
Purchase products that, when installed together, will fit within the measurements of your space. This is the tricky part…I always refer to this step as “the game of Tetris”.
When you are planing for product, make sure to think about vertical space and how it can be used.
Label, label, label!!!!
After everything is tucked away in its home, slap a label on it! You and your family are much, much more likely to keep everything organized if it is labeled! I can’t stress this enough!
A cleaning caddy is a great thing to keep on hand with your most used supplies.
Carry it all over the house while you clean and you should have just about everything you need without making multiple trips back to the cabinet.
Avoid using lots of mismatched containers and products. Use products that coordinate well together, and give a cohesive look.
Make it look beautiful, not just organized. This will help you keep it organized! Who wants to ruin a beautiful space?!
I love The Container Store, and that’s typically where I get most, or all, products I use for projects.
However, there isn’t a Container store close to us and I was in a pinch so everything used in these photos came from good ole Target. Lol- my other favorite store.
