My Updated Laundry Room

Well, after some thought and alot of discussion, we'll be installing the same carpet that's in the living room/dining room throughout the rest of the house. The installation will be done on Monday and Tuesday of next week. Footprints or not, it's just too expensive to start over. I've decided I can live with footprints more than I can live with carpet that doesn't seam well. I'm also thinking about it in a more positive way. I'm thankful that we're able to walk and get around without any difficulty. At least we are able to leave footprints in our carpet. Also, my blogging friend Wendy mentioned that having footprints in your house means you're sharing your home and life with others. I like that! And truthfully, I'm also very thankful that in this economy that I'm able to get new carpet period. It's a luxury and I'm very aware of that fact.

The painting is done for now too. We've got more to do but need to give ourselves a little break...and save up some more money! Painters are expensive! We've always done our painting ourselves but we just don't have the time and energy anymore. It would take us months to accomplish what the painters can do in a week or less.

I thought I'd show you my laundry room since it's the one room that's finally all put back together. It's a small room but functional. The cabinets have all been painted, walls painted, and new hardware has been put on the doors. The granite, new sink, and faucet were installed last year. You can't tell from the pictures but the walls are a light beige and the cabinets are antique white.
