Much Needed REDO!!!


Okay, I  had to do something to my utility/laundry room...

Because it is my office too! 

STARK WHITE

White is great for a laundry room.
Looking at the washer and dryer was not very pleasing.

I needed to warm it up a bit!
Add a little interest to this white box space!

Wanted it to be...

MY SPACE!

Take a look~

BEFORE...






AFTER

Used my initials that were used at my 60th~
See the strip that is on my old sink, it's printed duck tape!!

Check out this mop doll I found, isn't she cute?
The box with sunflower is wine carrier! I opened the top and added sunflowers!

 More photographs kids framed for my 60th~
The floral jug, found at Hobby Lobby.

I wanted a place to look up and see some treasures that  belonged to my precious daddy~
One of his many pair of 
COWBOY BOOTS 
One of his many...
COWBOY HATS
A photograph of him at the ranch.
The bluebonnets are in one of his coffee cups he had at at his law firm.
An angel to watch over him.
Dried yellow roses in the wire basket were from my 60th birthday party too.

 Up above my computer space~
I look up and see my family, up close and anytime!

 The floral painting and white vase of flowers, I bought at an antique store! 
The other things, Hobby Lobby~

I have all of my cookbooks in here too!


Remember the BIG 60 full of photographs for my 60th birthday?
Found a place for them!


SIX 

ZERO!



Floral boxes on the right, I bought an an antique store, love them!
The blossom box with yellow tulips, I had in my sun room.
The boxes on the left were gift boxes- love them too!


Here's my desk, computer and printer...a bit messy...
But...
Now it's a little bit warmer and not just a utility room!

My SPACE 
AND 
My OFFICE!

I don't do laundry!!!

  17. Nancy- It really looks great. You did a wonderful job. I have to say that my very favorite part is the area you did to remind yourself of your Dad. That is just precious and puts a lump in my throat. One of those bittersweet spots that kind of "gets you". GREAT JOB- xo Diana
