It was one of those jobs that takes like 10 minutes and you wonder why you waited a year to do it..
Whenever I folded laundry, it would end up in piles on the kitchen table.The table is pretty big, so we could still find space to eat at it, but it was just really a big eyesore.. Chris had the idea to put a long counter in the laundry room for me to fold on and then he also thought we might as well add in a cork board and make it kind of a command center too!
So here’s what we came up with!.I use it everyday for laundry, but also as an extra prep space for putting plates of food on once they’re prepared, or to lay things out when I’m packing us up for a weekend away.It really has made a big difference in the whole kitchen!
I love that it can easily hold about three big loads of folded laundry, so if I don’t get time to put it away over the weekend, it still has a place to live and be tidy and out of the way..I also love that it was super cheap to make!
We used the most basic lumber supplies but ended up with something that looks really cute and custom!.
For the top itself, we just used one long piece of pine shelving and trimmed it out with some 2×2 pine pieces to make it look chunkier.It smells like tea!
🙂 Quite possibly my favorite candle ever..So if you’re a scented candle fan, definitely try this tip out, save yourself some money, and enjoy freshening your home for just a little bit longer!.
