Now that we have decided to “Organise Our Laundry”, we are searching for some inspiration. I didnt need to look far, literally that day, this amazing laundry popped up in my news feed!
Toni ~ A Bowl Full of Lemons ~ Home Organization 101 Organising The Laundry
Toni’s laundry is bright, organised and a great example of using all the space available. In particular this set of shelves has inspired us to create something similar!
Right here in our own Internet backyard some clever Australian bloggers have already transformed their laundries into neat, organised, practical and gorgeous spaces.
Living on a Latte ~ Temporary Laundry Solution : Kerina at “Living on A Latte” has created her own temporary laundry using an IKEA table as a bench and IKEA laundry baskets to help divide laundry. This is such a clever, affordable and practical way to create some much needed bench space. You know bench space? That thing I dream of! Kerina also has some totally cute little canisters for her laundry powder!
Liz ~ Bizzy Dayz ~ D.I.Y Laundry: Liz has done most of the work in this Laundry her self! She has a great space to work with and has the made most of every inch of it! I love that she has combined some decroative elements into the laundry and I am swooning over the clever lost sock idea! Having somewhere to dry your clothes inside is another brilliant idea, only a Mum would think of! Check out Liz’s laundry blog post for how she organises her cupboards and her over sink washing caddy!
Bianca ~ A Little Delightful ~ Laundry Organisation Bianca is the queen of the printable laundry labels and her laundry is just as clever. This is a DIY system from Ikea. It makes practical use of every bit of space and can be tailored to suit your families needs. I love that Bianca has used that often ignored space towards the ceiling for storage boxes. Pop by her blog to check out her amazing printable laundry labels!
Cassandra ~ Cassadiva ~ My New Laundry: If Bianca is the queen of the labels, Cassandra is the queen of the custom built laundries.
Cass has designed this laundry herself using elements from the bunnings range of DIY laundries. It includes overhead cupboards with inbuilt drying racks, A built in ironing system, a sewing or craft bench and enough cupboard and drawer space to make me totally envious!
Kat ~ The Organised Housewife ~ Organising The Laundry: Katrina has shared an organising system to help divide that endless pile of laundry. This divided hamper and a laundry roster help tackle the job. Once again I love that this laundry is organised but cute as well with her very own framed printables.
And me….well all that inspiration has definitely motivated me to get started! The first space is just about finished! So..the big question…
Do you want me to share our space bit by bit?
Or just when it is all done?
Comment away!

I’ve been staring longingly at my Laundry Room pin board recently too. Moving into a new place, I’ve been thinking of the same idea as Kerina and repurposing a table to create bench space, and then an old bookcase we have with buckets/baskets to organise everything.
I want to go to Howard’s Storage World to get the “Laundry Powder” and “Soaking” canisters, and another clothes airer. In this house we’ve had one of those built in clothes airers and it has been wonderful. For the first time in a decade, I’ve not had to use the dryer in more than 6 months.
Thanks for this post. Feeling inspired.
LOVE all these laundries! I have to say that having a laundry that you don’t mind being in makes a huge difference.
Thank you so much for sharing ours, Larissa! xx
Wow so many ideas! My laundry used to be super organised…until Mr. C started putting his crap in there. Each time I tell him to put it away…ok, more like NAG him to do it, he would eventually do it, but something “new” will take it’s spot. And it doesn’t help that he keeps on bulk buying toilet paper to store in the laundry. ARGH! Other than that, everything in my laundry looks pretty organised I must say.
Thankyou so much for featuring our laundry on your blog. It makes such a difference to our whole home and life to have a nice and organised space. x
