A Laundry Room Project and Free Printables

I was browsing Pinterest the other day (shocked?) and I came across this cute laundry room printable from Sprik Space (if you've never heard of this site, you can thank me now. TONS of super cute printables!).

I immediately knew I wanted to use it in my laundry room makeover.

**sidenote - is it really a "makeover" if it's never been "first-overed?"**

Anyway, I loved the printable, but had an idea for a project and really wanted the print in black and white. It wasn't offered in that color - there are EIGHT colors to choose from - so I used the text and changed it up myself to the colors I needed.

You can download the black & white version by clicking on the image, then right clicking and saving to your computer. If you'd like to see the other colors Aimee offers, check out her post here.

I needed two different prints, so I created another printable to use as well.

And here's my project:


I painted some basic white 11" x 14" frames in the same shade as the walls (oh wait, did I just give something away??), then covered the 8" x 10" mats with burlap. The paint is a custom color - I mixed two colors that I already had on hand.


I cut the burlap approximately an inch and a half wider than the mat on each side, then folded it in quarters and cut the folded corner to create a center opening. I laid the mat on the burlap and cut slits in each inside corner, then folded up the edges and hot glued it. Super easy!

I am so in love with these.


Have you ever finished a project and jumped up and down because you were so excited???

Yeah, me either.
