Spending money to revamp a laundry room doesn't sound sexy, but transforming a dull, chore-centered space into an uplifting haven of organization and productivity? We can get on board with that. Vintage Revivals blogger Mandi Gubler proves just how satisfying a laundry room revamp can be, not to mention quick and cost-effective! Check out three innovative ideas she implemented to create a chic and budget-friendly laundry room anyone would want to spend time in.

Copper and Leather Hanging Rack
Having a place to dry delicates is essential, but instead of going the expected route and installing a traditional rod and brackets set up, Mandi took it to the next level with this DIY copper and leather hanging bar. Isn't it gorgeous?

Sliding Cabinets
In a really tight space, cabinets can be cumbersome to open and close when you feel like they might hit you in the head. Mandi came up with the brilliant idea of installing sliding cabinets instead. We love how the open shelf section displays decorative things like plants and pretty storage baskets while more unsightly items like detergents and stain sticks are concealed behind the sliding shelves.

Plywood Waterfall Countertop
Our favorite element of Mandi's laundry room, though, has to be this DIY plywood waterfall countertop — a project that she pulled off for $90! Impressed yet? We are. Be sure to check out the before pictures and the laundry room makeover on Vintage Revivals!
