Do we have you excited about a new home project? Before you throw on your overalls and grab a brush, you’ll need to consider…
What Color Should I Paint the Laundry Room?
For a perfect laundry room palette, think clean and crisp — just like your fresh clothes, or the water and soap you wash them with. Bright blues, greens, and yellows look wonderful in this space. And because it may be a room most people don’t see, you can risk having a little fun in the laundry room, too. Have a bold color you’ve always wanted to splash your home with, but never had the courage? This could be the moment you’ve been waiting for.
But just like with every other room in your house, you should consider your accents when you’re picking out paint for the laundry room. Mint green looks great with white wicker baskets, and silky cream can be a good complement to your silver appliances.
Remember that painting your laundry room is about more than just the color you choose. To add some dimension to your walls, consider a texture paint. Spending a little extra time on this aspect is a great idea for any room in the house — so why not consider it for your laundry room, too?
One final consideration while you’re choosing what color and in what style to paint your laundry room is, of course, how it will go with the rest of your house. While you can have a bit more fun in smaller or less heavily-trafficked spaces, it’s still a good idea to have some sense of continuity throughout the home. Your Tarrant County painting company can help you think through your home’s color palette for the best, most congruous results.
Don’t Want to Risk the Walls? Just Paint the Shelves, Instead
Even if you’re not quite ready to splash all of your laundry room walls, you can still have fun with paint. Adding a pop of color to the shelves is a great way to liven up your wash and dry space — and because it’s an accent, you can go bolder here if you want. Bright red, green, and other vibrant colors give an unexpected twist to your room. When you’ve painted the shelves, you can have even more fun by adding in some cool accents, like fun laundry baskets or cool appliances.
