Creating an eye-catching laundry room with a fun decor makes the normal mundane task of doing laundry more enjoyable. You can start by covering basic white walls with bold colors such as hot pink, orange or other tropical colors like lime and yellow. You can even decorate your laundry room with your kids in mind by featuring their favorite cartoon characters. - Install black and white checkerboard laminate floor in your laundry room. Paint the walls hot pink or yellow. Create a more feminine room or keep it neutral. Paint shelves in the room black to contrast against the pink walls and match the floor. Hang humorous black and white photos from the 1950s. You can find these online or shop around at antique shops. Some photos are even custom tailored for laundry rooms. Look on online auction sites as well. Include other 1950s decor such as a wall clock. Use colorful pink and black laundry baskets.
- Disney characters like Goofy are entertaining and fun. Create a bright and eye-catching Goofy-inspired laundry room by painting Goofy and his friends on a yellow wall, or hang framed pictures of them. Use black and white laundry baskets to contrast against the bright walls. Find Goofy rugs for the floor and bring in other Goofy decor such as a Disney wall clock.
- Paint each wall in your laundry room a different bold or bright color like red, yellow, orange and pink. The bright walls will contrast against the bold colors. Choose colors wisely because of the small room size. Feature yellow and lime green with orange or other colors of your choice. Paint a shelf a bright color that contrasts against the wall and install this shelf directly above your washer and dryer. Decorate the room with bright red, orange and blue laundry baskets and hang up framed photos of bright colored flowers.
