So after watching our two local appliance dealers' web pages like hawks for monthly deals and researching Energy-Star, low-water/HE washers, we lucked out last week when we saw the one we wanted go on sale at Vic's. Sweet! (If you're local, the folks at Vic's, downtown Saco are super good to work with. If you're not local to me, I encourage you to check out your locally-owned appliance store. Often the deals are better than what you can get at your big-box store, they sometimes have a dented and scratched section, and all the while, you are supporting a local business!)
The wall color is Olympic's No-VOC April Sky D56-1.


In this space, we plan to install one of these much-coveted-by-me airing racks.



This side of the room is the mini-mudroom area, for coats, boots, and a shelf for baskets full of seasonal items. I just switched out the hats and mittens for beach towels and bathing suits. Alex found a piece of interior trim we had salvaged from the Bradstreet homestead and we used left-over hooks to make this coat rack. I'm hoping I will soon be able to put away the last of the winter coats, once warm weather arrives and stays.

Every nook and corner is used and this time we took extra care to put things within easy reach. It won't be long before we will be reaching for these berry baskets for a day of picking.

Ah, it feels so good to have our laundry room back and in good order!
I love that! I must say I was *just* going on to my husband about how I miss having a mud room/laundry room/storage room. We have an unfinished basement and it is just not good for storing stuff or air drying laundry. I love having a room. Drying racks, canning jars, coats. Beautiful! :)
