7 Brilliant Utility Room Decorating Ideas

Needless to say, doing the laundry is understandably not everyone’s favourite household task. That doesn’t mean your utility room should also be as boring and dirty as your laundry is. Adding an appeal to your utility room and decorating it to make a cheerful statement may be one of the best ways you can make laundry day not so stressful.

  1. Looking for this?

Create a ‘Lost and Found’ laundry organiser spot in your utility room.  You can dazzle with a farmhouse style or set the positive vibes with a customised unit.  This spot is the go-to place for lost ties, scarfs, and socks as the items will try finding their way to their owners.

  1. Meaningful messages

Say goodbye to a boring, empty utility room wall.  Add fun statements, messages and quotes using creative decals.  You can even create your own shapes and words.  Simply paste the statement as creative as you can onto your utility room’s wall.  Add different shapes and designs to make it look more appealing.

  1. Make a striking impression

Your utility room does not need to be painted white, as what you may commonly see.  Make this room lively using bold colours such as bright green or yellow.  You can also choose eye-popping patterns for wallpaper.

  1. Under counter mess?

Hide the mess using fabulous curtains.  The fabric curtain will not only conceal the unavoidable clutter, but they also serve as wonderful accents to add a statement to your utility room.

  1. Say it with style

Add a cheerful flair for your utility room by adding fun labels.  You can creatively label your laundry bins, detergent containers, fabric conditioners and other laundry essentials.  Why not design the labels and make your own lettering?  Top it off with colourful and vibrant designs and backdrops and voilà, you’ve got a utility room that’s unique and lively.

  1. Wicker baskets

The utility room always seem to be holding a lot of stash.  Use bins and baskets for the things that you need but don’t want to be on display.  These containers can hold your soaps, bleach, fabric softener, clothes pins and other stuff together and at the same time make sure they’re handy and organised.

  1. Luminous luminaires

Your utility room is one of the rooms in your house that will require the best lighting.  You need to have great lighting so you can spot stains and hard to see dirt from your washing.  Add a level of glam to your utility room by installing the elegance of a chandelier.  Who says utility room can’t be alluring?
