A Bathroom Story, the zingy refresher!
If you’re not in shock from seeing the hideous before pictures I forced on you yesterday…
Then I have a wee refresher to share.
I promised it “soon” and figured 3 months from now didn’t really fall into the “soon” category so I am doing it right now.
I wanted to Amp–up the color and bring in some Zing to our bathroom/laundry room!
I did this by adding some new rugs and a few accessories in orange, pink, lime & aqua.
We went from this…
To this:
My Inspiration for changing things up a little was most definitely these colorful rugs!
Might as well have something fun to look at while I do laundry right?
All it takes are a few little goodies to change the entire vibe of the room! It doesn’t always have to be a major makeover.
I guess the most expensive biggest change would be the new washer and dryer.
Love Them.{so much!}
We seriously needed them too!
I held off as long as I could.
These are some hard working,
monster-load washing & drying machines.
The beauty of going with neutral paint and finishes, even in your larger pieces like cabinets and furnishings, is that you can easily change up the look of a room, bathrooms included, by simply switching out your accessories!
And anyone who visits my blog knows… nothing stays the same for long at my house.
Thanks for stopping by!
I love chatting, sharing & exchanging ideas.

You are the Supah Star! Now you stand up and say it!
Sooooo ca-yute!!!! Those little zings of brightness are lovely!! They fit right in!!!
I’m also digging your washer/dryer!! They look like brutes and like they get the job Done!! 🙂
Love the sherbert, yum. Also hope you will post more about the virtues of the new washer & dryer for those of us considering an upgrade. Myself I like to know what makes a loveable washer, what bells and whistles.

Love that new rug! What a great jumping off point! I agree- neutrals are the place to start – then you can go crazy from there!!
Love, love those throw rugs, Shannon! How fun these colors are and I love how you brought them throughout the rest of the room, too!
Love the pops of colour!! Really makes the room come alive. Great choices.
Love the colorful rugs! and also great how the room looks totally different just with some small adjustments!

Wow, what a change, I love it! I want your washer and dryer, but mine is in the garage so I’d never subject them to that:)
Your first laundry redo was wonderful and the new redo is so full of pizazz! The vibrant colors makes doing laundry loads of fun!
Hi Shannon,
I’m loving your pops of bright colors going on in your laundry room. Perfect for spring and summer.

YUMMY COLORS! Oh I love how cheery it is. I am jealous over your new appliances. When we moved here 6 years ago, my hubs told me get anything you want. Of course I picked boring traditional. I did not want to learn a new machine.
That’s awesome! Just a few brightly colored accessories really did change the whole vibe of the room. You can’t possibly hate doing laundry in there. It’s such a cheerful space. (You should see my laundry dungeon!)
happy happy!!!! i love the bright fun colors! what a breath of fresh air. is it weird that i want to either go potty at your house or do laundry? or both at the same time?
