The Laundry Room

Ya.  Here it is.  It looks like it's been through a lot.  Well it has,  a lot of neglect that is.  I have been so inspired by real people who pretty up their laundry rooms.  Not to mention the pretty pics in magazines.  But mine can only get so pretty with a mismatching washer and dryer.  I will try to "pretty up"  this problem little by little. 

Here is what I have so far.  I LOVE all of the pics where people have the laundry soap in pretty jars.  I had to do it.  And to make it better I picked up this little number at a local thrift store for $1.  Perfect!  Now I just need a metal scoop to go with it.  Where can I find one of those?  Anyone know?

So I got the little tray at the thrift store for a dollar too.  It had some weird flowers all over it.  I imagined it white in my head and it looked good...but this doesn't look good so I will repaint it soon.  Plus it blends in with our dryer, which by the way is new (well new to us) ours broke last week.  We picked this up for a cool $60.  And it works a billion times better than the one that broke.  Not too shabby!   I will keep on keeping on with the laundry room and keep you posted.
