Budget-Friendly Laundry Room Makeover Reveal
I am really excited that I was able to successfully finish the $100 Room Challenge and produce a budget- friendly laundry room makeover reveal.
A laundry room makeover reveal:Tips
I have done a few $100 room challenges, it is always exciting and stressful. Its probably why I only have done a few. If you want to get motivated this challenge is a great way to tackle a room. You typically have 4 weeks to finish a room. Even though I had 5 weeks in September there were some tears shed making this project.
Tips: Always check to make sure when you put back the washer that the hose is attached. Fast forward… Ashley called and said there was water everywhere on the floor. Thank God she caught it ahead of time and minimal damage was done.
Before Pictures:
If you have been following along in week 1 I talked about choosing my daughter’s laundry room as the makeover. The plan is to paint the cabinets a light blue color, tile the backsplash with subway tile, and take down the wired shelving and replace it with a trendy industrial pipe shelving.
I present the new laundry room makeover reveal:
Cabinets
In week 2 I re-painted the cabinets from a dingy beige to a Sweet Bluette color, it warmed up the laundry room big time. My daughter and her family were happy with the color.
Subway Tile
This was the most challenging project of the entire makeover. It was my first tile job. Tiling around the light switches around the washer and dryer hookup was difficult. I was lucky to have some unexpected help from my brother-in-law. Read all about it in Week 3.
Pipe Shelving
I think the industrial pipe shelving transformed the shelving into something trendy and functional. Now there is enough headroom. Before you would almost hit your head on the wired shelving when you walk in. Check out week 4 for the pipe shelving DIY
Total Cost:
In the end, I went over a little of the $100 budget. For only $10 Home Depot really helped and gave me a huge discount on an oak stair tread which was the perfect size for my shelving. What really counts at the end is my daughter and her family have a nice laundry room that they can use comfortably.
- Cabinet painting supplies $54
- Tile cutter, grout, and adhesive supplies: 30.00 (Tile was free, I had leftover tile from kitchen backsplash )
- Shelving and pipes: $28.00
Total cost: $112

Awesome makeover and a great first tiling job! Now that the first tiling job is under your belt, will you try tiling again?
Thanks Yes For sure, I am thinking of doing my laundry room.
Your daughter must be over the moon with the makeover Maria. It looks like such a heavenly space now and I don’t think I’ve ever called a laundry room heavenly 😀 My least favorite room in the house.
You are too funny! I know the laundry room nowadays are rooms you can relax in which is hard to believe.
I haven’t tackled tiling yet! Thank you for a shot of confidence! Love the clean organized laundry space.
Thanks so much, if you decided to do a tile job reference back to my post and if I can do it you can.
The room is beautiful now and I love the tiles. I also love the $100 room challenge. Great job!
Thanks Sherry, it was a pleasure to fix it for my daughter.
Fabulous ideas. Definitely giving me inspiration for my laundry room. Looks fantastic.
Glad you like it, it was a challenging project.
Maria, I love how your daughter’s laundry room turned out! The soft blue of the cabinets is really pretty. The new pipe shelf is really fun!! Do you have to worry about the shelf falling of or the things on top of it? Just wondering since it doesn’t look like the shelf is tied down.
Great job and I know it was a lot of work but sooo worth it,
Happy fall,
Barb 🙂
The shelving is anchored in the wall so you can put heavy objects on the shelf. Thanks for stopping by. Have a great weekend.
Wow, what a stunning laundry I would even iron my clothes if I had one like this. It looks so clean and elegant.
You are so sweet, thanks, I glad it over, it was a bit stressful but glad I was able to finish it.
Wow what a great job and for around $100! That awesome! Love the blue too.
Yes thanks, it amazing to try to keep everything close to $100, its a challenge.
Love that bluette paint as you call it…perfect!
Thanks Janet, it was a big accomplishment for me to tile and paint cabinets.
Looks amazing! What a huge difference. I’ve never tried tiling and am scared too! Everything looks so fresh! Great job!
Thanks Amy, its not that bad, its actually easy as long as you have all the right tools.
It looks awesome! Great job!!
Thanks so much, Enjoying meeting many of you.
It turned out great! I am so impressed with the tile job. Tiling requires time and patience, not an easy thing to have. I love the cabinet color so much! I am sure your daughter is thrilled!
Thanks so much, Wendy, I am really excited that I was able to successfully tile it all. It’s been great meeting you and entering this challenge.
So pretty! I’m getting ready to tile my laundry room wall – you’ve inspired me to get going!
You made my day, thanks so much for the sweet comment and visit.
What a beautiful makeover! I love the cabinet color and tile. You created such a relaxing and pleasant space to work!
Thanks so much, it was my first tile job and now I want to do more. Stay well.

Maria,
Love how this turned out! Great job!
Thanks for stopping by, it was a very enjoyable challenge for me
Great work! I love the soft blue of the cabinets. Your daughter must be thrilled!
Yes she is very happy! I glad I was able to finish it. Thanks for stopping by
I love the industrial pipe shelf! Brings some visual interest to the room! This challenge is so fun!
Yes it does it really makes the room since its very small.Thanks
This laundry room turned out so beautiful! For what you were able to do, going over by $12 is nothing! I have made one of those industrial shelves and all the hardware can be so expensive! Great job Maria- your daughter is very lucky to have you.
Thanks so much, you are so sweet, appreciate the comment, and nice knowing you.
Wow this is beautiful and you did such a great job this season~ I would be in this room all the time now~
Thanks Jen for stopping by so sweet of you.
Maria- This is beautiful! I love the blue cabinets and the tiled backsplash. And the industrial pipe shelving is perfect for this space. I’m sure your daughter is so excited to have such a gorgeous space! (And we had a hose break on our washer once… my son came up and said, “Water is spewing EVERYWHERE!” It ruined sheetrock and was not very fun to clean up, so I know that feeling). I am so glad you joined the challenge!
Thanks so much, Erin, I really enjoyed entering the Challenge and will be back for some more. Hopefully, no leaks next time.
What a great space for your daughter, that was so kind of you!!
Thank you for stopping by, appreciate it so much.
