Reader Space: "Loads" of Laundry Wow

What I love about today's reader space as it shows just how easy it is to take a space from so so to so wow!

Hope you & your family have a blessed holiday season.  I have been following your blog since the summer.  I am not certain how I stumbled upon it, but I check it out in quite frequently & love it!  You & your blog has inspired me to redo our laundry closet.  It is a small area, but my husband & I tried to make it as functional as possible.  Here are a few pictures...

Thanks,

Ashley

Ready to see what some simple updates can do to a space?

Anyone who knows me, knows why I adore this transformation: 

• A fresh coat of paint works wonders in any space needing a quick update!
• Adding one more shelf packed oodles of extra storage punch!
• Baskets and white vases {wahoo!}, add concealed storage, giving the space a more eye pleasing and less overwhelming feeling!

Congrats on your new space Ashley!  I love all that you have done to make it more functional for you!  If it's ever possible to get excited about doing laundry, this is the route to go!

Sometimes it's the simplest changes and updates that really bring into perspective the fundamentals of updating a space to be more pleasing!

Inspired by Ashley's submission, today I wanted to open our weekly party up to small changes making a wow of a difference.

P.S.  Have an awesome organizing story to share?  I am looking for projects that have made a positive impact to your life.  Please send your story and photos to iheartorganizing@gmail.com and I would heart to feature them right here, on the blog!!  Photos should be high resolution and un-editted.  Please include a description of the project, including any costs, inspiration, and how it has changed your routine for the better is so helpful!  Oh, and no worries my friends, we will NEVER judge "before" pictures because that just wouldn't be nice!  Only love goes on at this blog!
