Tips for Organizing and Designing

  • Decide what you would like purposes you would like your multi-purpose laundry room to serve. Do you want table space for folding? A work area? A sewing station? A mudroom?
  • Pick a theme. Decide whether you will go bold or neutral. Modern or rustic. Formal or casual.
  • Storage. Use the space wisely and organize it using cabinets, baskets, shelves, built-ins  etc.
