Chalk it up to Laundry

Chalk it up to Laundry
The Laundry Room- that mysterious land where clothes magically become clean, fold, and ironed.  It’s also known as the universal black hole where socks disappear never to be seen again (the current scientific theory is they do return, but come back through the kitchen as Tupperware lids). The Laundry Room is also the location where your favorite silk shirt shrinks yet no one remembers seeing it go in the load of towels in the dryer. If you’ve ever seen some of my social media posts, then you’ve seen the special load of cleaning rags that transformed into a pretty shade of pink. (See photo at bottom of page).
We spend a lot of time in the laundry even if it’s only to rotate the loads from one machine to another. The Laundry Room is often used as the home’s entry since most home owners now enter their house through the garage. So, you might as well make it attractive. Have your favorite laundry quote painted onto the walls. Or if you love vintage, have a mural of vintage washing soap painted.  Using faux chalk paints I created this fun way to perk up the laundry room and to remember what the care labels mean:
