Today, a reader confirms for me why I find adding a special touch to a closet makes all the difference in the world. Prepare to be inspired with what you are about to see!

Hi!
I'd love to share with you my most recent re-do, our laundry closet. We have a small 12.5 square foot laundry closet that was always an absolute mess. There was no rhyme or reason to it and it was an absolute eye soar. I recently added some paint, gave it a good cleaning and added lots of storage containers.
I hope you consider featuring it on your blog!

Like so many, Kim started out with a blank slate laundry space behind two closet doors:
And here is what her laundry space looked like behind those closed doors:
Kim really worked with what she had. She removed everything, and snagged up some leftover paint to paint out the lower shelf and a stripe around the entire closet! Then, strategically placed items back in, where they made sense and in streamlined containers. Oh my word. Ready to see what a difference some quick updates made?
Told ya! That pop of color made all the difference to the space. Now it feels much more like a room than a closet, and I bet she isn't worried about leaving those closet doors open {I know I would on proud purpose!}
She found the storage bins from Walmart, and used an embellishment punch to create labels:
She used some clear jars for some more laundry essentials, like dryer sheets and powder soaps:
She added some hooks for drying:
And for artwork that is also functional, she framed up Martha Stewart's stain removal guide:
As I do, she opted to use a beverage tub in place of a laundry basket!
Leaving her with the most drab to fab closet laundry transformation! Talk about laundry love!
A final jaw dropping before and after:
And a button for you:
Who else is in awe of this perfectly organized and lovely closet transformation? Who is grabbing a bucket of paint right now? What's your favorite part? Leave Kim some high five love for finding some inspiration and making it her own happy haven. Because chores are so much more enjoyable when your surroundings smile back at you!
