Laundry makeover with rattan cupboards

This project has been a long time in the making. I recycled a cabinet for the counter space at the bottom and a long hutch where I added rattan to make more storage space on the top. I bought a timber panel from Bunnings and cut out the sink space for when my neighbour whose a plumber to fit all the taps etc. there was a space on top of the washing machine that was really bugging me so another trip to Bunnings and I came up with the idea to make a little pull out drawer ironing board, using the drawer accessories to create it. Finally last step once all the plumbing was finished I tiled the backsplash with the beautiful aqua long tile from Bunnings. I painted the top cabinets with dulux aqua enamel to make it more durable and used the marine  varnish in the countertop to really protect the timber.

Re: #DIY July laundry makeover

Wow! You really have an eye for this type of makeover, @selva. Really stunning work!

 

I trust you're exceptionally pleased with how this turned out. I love the pull-out ironing board. I'm sure this could be used as a space-saving device in many small laundry projects. It would be a great place for a washing basket if there is limited bench space.

 

Thanks for sharing your marvellous work.
