Laundry Room

As the kitchen renovation is ongoing upstairs, we are still finishing up the things we said we'd do on our own (as opposed to paying the contractor) DOWNSTAIRS. While the bathroom has been done for a few weeks (other than painting the door), we still needed to finish the laundry room, paint and rehang all of the doors along the hallway (two closets are done, but still need to do the bedroom, the laundry room, and the furnace space), paint the door out to the garage, reinstall shelving in both of the closets, and finish the trim around the furnace space (after the doors are hung, which is turning out to be an issue).

Anyway, last night we finished the laundry room. And I love it! Hubby cut a shelf out of thick particle board. He fashioned supports for it to sit on out of leftover window trim (my dad will be proud). It's a great surface for folding laundry and who knows what else. It does, however, boldy illustrate how not "square" our house is, as the shelf itself is level. We installed a new hang bar where there used to be shelves. So now I can reclaim our spare bedroom downstairs and put everything back in the laundry room that is supposed to be there. Very exciting!!
