Garage laundry makeover

[Hotwheelsnz]

My wife loves doing the laundry (Yes i know ............................🙄) so I decided to make her happy place even happier 😉

I used all Bunnings products for the project and it was actually very easy to do without paying someone to do the job.

All up it cost me close to $2,200nz (Probably $150 less using my powerpass card) to do and I'm very happy with the effortless outcome. Wifes happy too 😀

Step 2

I made up the 3 top cabinets then secured them to the wall.

Step 3

I made up the bottom draws and then put them into place

Step 4

I added the bench top then cut it to size.

Step 5

I made up the broom cupboard then I installed into place.

Step 6

I finally added the two shelves, cut them to size and installed them between the top three cupboards and the broom cupboard.

Hi @Hotwheelsnz,

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community, it's great that you've shared such a fantastic project with us.

I love the contrast between the timber benchtop and the white appliances, you've done a great job of creating an even happier place for your wife.

We'll be looking forward to seeing any future projects that you may have.

Hi @Hotwheelsnz, looks amazing - I love seeing projects like these. Would you have a picture of how the area looked before you started, so that members can see the full transformation? And are there any additional pics you took along the way. Would love to see some more of this project.
