A couple of weeks ago, I shared my laundry room makeover at Craft-o-manic.
What I didn't share was that the whole project started here.....
I was only going to "reorganize" this shelf...HA! I added shelf paper and then
I found about 1/3 a gallon of paint leftover from my kitchen makeover.....INSPIRATION!
Here are some "before" pictures of my laundry room....the color was called latte, but it reminded me of sitting inside a cup of lukewarm hot cocoa.....but it had been leftover (and free!), so I used it!
You can see white spots where I used to have wire shelving....I ran out of paint and wasn't able to touch up those spots when we added built-in shelving a couple of year ago....those spots drove me crazy!
So here's the reveal.....all that this makeover involved was leftover paint, one roll of beadboard wallpaper, and some foam chair rail and trim!
I love the response of my one son....he walks into the laundry room, turns around and says, "Did we get new lights in here??" Uhm...no......did you miss the other changes??
My total cost was $30.00!
Beadboard wallpaper: $15.00 available at Lowe's
Brushes and rollers: $5.00
1 piece of foam chair rail: $7.00 at Carter Lumber
1 piece of foam trim: $3.00 at Carter Lumber
Wood shelf: FREE! Wood just sitting around
Everything else: FREE!
I just shopped my house for the blue mason jars and

And because we all love before and after shots...
Truly...you are able to make BIG changes to your home for very little money!
Now....if I could just magically find a free can of paint that's the perfect
color for my dining room!
Yes....I still haven't decided on a color yet and it's driving me crazy!!
