Vibrant Laundry Room-Pinch pennies with MDF cabinets and add your own trim.
H&H senior editor Meg Crossley turned into this unfinished basement laundry area to a laundry room oasis. Improper venting meant the washer and dryer needed to be moved to the opposite wall, in which they're currently concealed by latching doors. Meg also added a convenient sink with a kitchen-worthy faucet, an upper shelf and lower closets for extra storage. A contractor cut door fronts from MDF, and then Meg added Shaker trim for a personalized look. To provide the basement an airy atmosphere, the space was painted white. Sico's Light Sugar (4150-11), an aged white, makes the ceilings look higher without feeling cold or sterile. The cabinets were painted robin's egg blue for a country-inspired appearance.
Sewing Room-Make low ceilings appear higher with customized built-ins that maximize vertical space.
This sewing, craft and gift-wrap channel was designed into a nook of a basement laundry room. The plans included built-in closets which provide a great deal of storage to organize supplies and seasonal products. Simple Ikea boxes flip the spacious shelves into a tidy screen and white paint keeps it clean and glowing. The durable slate floor is practical and elevates the decoration.
Lower-Level Guest Bedroom-Wallpaper a wall instead of four.
In the 2009 Princess Margaret Showhome, the lower level was finished with style. A focal wall has been coated in a textured background while the others were painted a creamy white to maximize light. A chandelier and table lamps allow guests to select their preferred lighting.
Work with existing plumbing.
Putting this bath beside the plumbing shaft left room for a freestanding sink in the small bathroom. New pipes was inserted from the laundry area, along with the HVAC ducts were raised into the ceiling joists to permit for as much headroom as possible.
