‘Have nothing in your house that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful.’
-William Morris
When we moved to our new home, I promised myself that this time I would decorate every room nicely.
So here I show of my ohlalalaundry room. A bit too tiny to photograph properly but everyone knows what a washing machine, dryer and sink looks like;0) However, I decided to make it pretty with a little chest of drawers and a cozy shelf with the collection my Dutch souvenirs. And I really like the shape of my watering can ( 50 cents at a thrift store = score!)
Toen we verhuisden naar ons nieuwe huis, had ik mezelf beloofd dat ik deze keer alle kamers prettig ging inrichten.
Dus even opscheppen over mijn nieuwe ohlala-washok. Een beetje te klein om goed te fotograferen maar iedereen weet toch wel hoe een wasmachine, droger en spoelbak er uitziet;0) Ik besloot het te verfraaien met een lief laden kastje en een gezellig plankje met mijn verzameling Hollandse souveniertjes. En ik word erg blij van t ontwerp van mijn gieter. ( 50 cent in de kringloop = score!)
Love and Liefs, Johanna.
Very pretty!! ..perhaps I should hire you to overhaul my laundry room in austria 😉
Have a nice day, J
I would LOVE to overhaul a laundry room in Austria ;0) With a glass of Gluhwein afterwards as a reward! ♥ Johanna
I’d sing “la, la, la,” too, if my laundry room looked like that! Very attractive and I love that’s it’s actually decorated, instead of just a room with major appliances! Is it always that tidy (and peaceful and calm)?
Thank you Kerry! Yes,tidy…the Dutch and their National Obsession with Cleanliness….
It is a very nice room, I like your blue cow 🙂 Annie
Thank you, Annie and the cow was funny surprise a colleague of mine found in a thrift store and could not resist buying for me ;0) I think its sweet too!
Very pretty. The blue is a lovely pop of colour! Now when can you come to my house to decorate?? 😉
Going to Ottawa? That does not sound too bad;0) But thank you for the compliment!
Love what you did with the laundry room and love your delftware (I think that’s what it’s called)! 🙂
Thank you Linda. Delftware is right, and I am especially fond of the little houses. My husband travelled a lot for his work an he would get them on the plane as a little gift on some trips.
Well, you certainly succeeded with your oohlalalaundry room! Makes me want to go tidy mine, and be thankful I have one!
Washing machines, dryers…blessings to the world, I say! They deserve a nice room;0)
It’s a wonderful idea to decorate every room in the house, even the utilitarian ones! Laundry rooms should be pretty, too – and yours is, especially! 🙂
Ohoh, my ears are flapping with delight after such a lovely compliment. You always have such encouraging things to say! Thank you and a big hug!
