Today I’m excited to share with you a tour of my laundry room! My washer and dryer live in a small closet off the kitchen. With a decent amount of shelving, the closet doubles as an extension of my pantry. It’s not a perfectly organized space, but it has several good organization systems in it that make my life so much easier.
I use three organizing strategies to keep everything in place for this high-traffic area:
- Use containers to corral small or similar items
- Use hooks to keep maximize space and keep things off the floor
- Make it pretty!
Watch my video below to see all these strategies in action!

It looks awesome! I’m slowly but surely getting things organized in our house and this just gives me that much more motivation. Don’t you just love when you hit upon something for storage/organization that works perfectly???

I love the idea of hanging baskets. I have my dryer sheets in a basket, but it’s not attached to the wall. I just knocked it off the shelf and spilled dryer sheets everywhere so I wish it was a hanging basket! I also love that you maximized your storage and have a place for everything. I think I need to add some hooks and some hanging basket to my laundry room.

Most of my organizing solutions come from messes or from being tired of things falling on my head. LOL! 🙂

Ok, now I need some placemats for the top of my washer/dryer!! Everything else I do just like you do!! My pantry is concealed behind doors off my laundry room. An organizer who came to our church ladies group emphasized getting everything OFF the floor so I did that about a year ago and it does make a difference. And I am a BAG HOARDER as well…do they have meetings for that????

LOL Arlene, if they don’t, maybe we should start a bag hoarder support group. 🙂 My Target has a lot of really cute placemats on clearance right now. I saw some cute plastic ones that would be easy to keep clean, marked down to $.99/each.

Such a cute little area. Our laundry resides in the utility room downstairs which has unfinished walls… I really would love to make it cute someday!

I really loved the added tip of hanging baskets on hooks! I always use hooks, BUT haven’t hung a basket from one. Smart idea for organization AND added decor.

I got those baskets at Hobby Lobby YEARS ago and have used them in a couple different locations over the years. They are awesome!
