I’ve painted, cleaned and it’s DONE
(Updated POST, added the paint color and how I used this color in my kitchen) This is a post from The Quilt Ladies and has a life of its own. How I updated our laundry room. It’s my number ONE pin on Pinterest and if you’d like to follow my Pinterest boards I’m HERE
Our little condo has a closet for the Laundry Room and I just didn’t like it, plus I couldn’t reach the shelf without being on my tip toes !

I moved everything out of our little kitchen dining area,
we don’t use it. Than went to Lowe’s
Want to see a grown man shiver in his work boots ?
Want to see a grown man shiver in his work boots ?
Walk into Lowe’s with a yellow legal pad, tape measure and pictures from
pinterest ! ! ! Yes, it was a metal tape measure not cloth, I’ve learned, they will laugh out loud at you, I know I did it….once.
My drying time was less with the cabinets in the air conditioning, in the garage and in Florida, it would have taken quite a bit longer for them to dry. This is 3 coats of the Valspar Latex Enamel Paint
Trick ONE, I get the better brushes HERE, NOT the cheap ones from Lowe’s.They wash great and no hairs come out like the other ones !
Trick TWO is a BROWN paper sack, paper is the finest sand paper. BUT, it must be a BROWN sack. The only one I had in the house was from a little quilt shop in McKinney, TX, Stitched with Love, their site. Cut the sack open and I like to fold it in and use just as sand paper, it makes the paint and wood soft ! 
This is the “BEFORE” of the closet
Everything out ! CLEANED and Taped wallsHow often do you move your washer and dryer?
I’m going to have to do it more often…it’s been 5 years for me. And, from the looks of it, too LONG !
LOVE the Blue 
First Cabinet up ! 
This is the “AFTER” I love it. Besides time this was not that expensive of a project, cabinets and paint about 150 dollars, I like !
