Laundry rooms are usually the last place we think about decorating. But why can’t a chore room be a cheerful room?
I’m on a mission to prove that with a little creativity, you can turn that dreary space into a delightful one you’ll actually want to spend time in!
1. Cool Elegance
The aesthetics in this beautiful room are enough to perk anyone up. I love the stunning Egyptian blue wallpaper.
The whole space comes together with classy marble, fabulous wallpaper, and elegant cabinetry. Finishing off the cool, elegant look are the chic pendant lighting and a stylish floor.
2. Snug Farmhouse
This laundry room is all about efficiency and fun, with a snug and cheerful feel that has some rustic undertones.
The white interiors are complemented by a charming barn door cabinet facing, DIY shelves, and an eye-catching white and grey rug.
To break up the white, some enchanting details like basket organizers and greens are just lovely!
3. Space and Colours
Here we have a spacious mudroom and laundry combination that looks even wider and airier because of the white interiors and open windows. A great way to inject some fun into a busy space like this is by adding pops of cheerful color.
You can see it here with the blue of the cabinet facing, the bright yellow rug, and the touches of green from the potted plants.
4. Pops of Orange
Talk about bright, colorful, and striking! You can really perk up your laundry room with pops of bright orange. This tiny laundry room has an interesting navy, green, and orange wallpaper.
The navy-blue machines and walls are picked up perfectly by those bright and perky orange accents.
5. News on the Wall
This design features neat, white interiors with a slate herringbone tile floor, subway splashback, and dark grey wainscoting. I think the hint of rustic from the wood accents is a nice touch.
But the most exciting aspect here has to be the newspaper print wallpaper. Things are bound to be exciting when you have the news on the walls.
6. Colourful Tiles
This laundry room is filled with lovely details and what I like to call cheerful clutter. The design has rustic accents, potted plants, an elegant marble splashback, and bright patterned tile flooring.
Those pink and grey tiles really add a charming and graceful element to the workroom.
7. Laundry in Luxury
Who says laundering can’t be luxurious? This space is well-appointed, spacious, and just plain posh.
Everything in this room, from the patterned marble tile floor and chic island counter to the chinoiserie jars and fabulous chandelier, was excellently chosen to give an efficient and charming effect.
8. Quirky Accents
Why settle for ordinary and boring when you can go for quirky and exciting? This laundry room is certainly extraordinary with its fascinating wallpaper pattern, interesting and colorful wall art, and that goth black chandelier.
To underscore the eccentric quirkiness, you’ve got the colored tassel laundry bag and a blue ceiling.
9. Humorous Add-Ons
A little humor in your decor can easily brighten up your day, even on a dreadful wash day. It adds personality and helps lighten the load.
I love the idea of filling your laundry area with fun and colorful add-ons like a lost sock bucket, a change collector, and some text frames.
10. Open Counters
This delightful blue and white laundry room is so spacious and well-lit. It comes with ample counter space for all your folding and organizing needs.
The room also has some lovely pendant lights and even a window seat. That’s just perfect for relaxing between loads.
11. Perky Pink
You can instantly upgrade a generic white laundry room with just a pop of color. Try adding some delightful pink stripes to the wall.
The pair of polaroid prints really make the room feel unique and personalized, and those cute canvas bags bring in a trendy vibe.
12. Plaid Floors
I think plaid is so charming, rustic, and cheerful. The blue-grey shades in this plaid flooring highlight the cool and appealing interiors of the room.
This space also has classic white walls, counters, and cabinets, a fun wallpapered accent wall, and some wide windows.
13. Virtual Summer
Why not create a warm and bright room for the dreary chore of laundering? This well-lit and spacious room just exudes summery delights.
I love the beach accents, pink tile floors, and an exotic rug that reminds me of warm vacations.
14. The Red Laundry
The huge and bright cherry-red machines are what dominate this laundry room. To counter that bright glare, the walls are kept white and the eye-catching ceiling is painted with a cool turquoise ombre.
The wide window keeps the room from feeling cramped, while the shelves help keep the clutter out.
15. White and Light
Doing laundry in this bright room with the outdoors on view is bound to be fun and interesting.
The glass wall lets in ample lighting and allows you to enjoy the view of your garden outside, all while enjoying the comforts of being indoors.
16. Modern Rustic
You can turn a boring tiny laundry space into this fun and delightful hub. The modern floating shelves offer enough space for both storage and work.
And that grey tile wall is the perfect backdrop for the white machines, potted plants, and rustic baskets.
17. Cheerful Grey
This grey room is far from the boring and dreary look that is so typical of the color. The delicate marble flooring and hints of gold give the styling a bright, elegant, and posh look.
I also love how the chic subway tile splashback adds a modish and urbane air to the space.
18. The Bohemian
Busy, colorful, loud. The maximalist theme of this laundry room totally speaks to the Bohemian spirit, which is loud, quirky, and fun!
The dark grey walls really set off the bright pinks, purples, and greens. It’s safe to say this room for toil is a far cry from the boring laundry rooms we’re used to.
19. Dressed Up Ceiling
If you want to keep your laundry room neat and clutter-free, decor and accents often get ditched. This neat and minimalist laundry room took the decorating up to its ceiling.
While the walls and counters are clear of any unnecessary details, the ceiling is papered with enchanting floral blues and accented with an elegant golden lighting fixture.
20. Farmhouse Prints
You can dress up a boring laundry room with pretty farmhouse prints to achieve this charming and bright space.
Try changing out forgettable cabinet handles with shiny knobs, paper up the walls with some charming florals, and then complete the makeover with a classic farmhouse accent, the plaid curtains.
21. Perfect Peach
With a myriad of prints, patterns, and colors, this busy and colorful laundry room is a fun and organized clutter.
Some design highlights include the white and peach wallpaper, the bright and colorful flower garden rug, and a shiny hardwood floor that keeps any unkempt and cluttered look at bay.
22. Surprise Elements
Folding racks and rods are pretty common in laundry rooms since they save space and minimize clutter.
But you can add a surprise element to your fixtures by installing these wall accents that also double as a drying rod or hanger rack. What a clever idea!
23. Colour Blocks
This colorful laundry space combines modern efficiency with mid-century modern charms.
The design uses bold colors to define the different elements, with teal for the cabinet facing, light blue for the walls, and a brick red for the splashback.
24. Sapphire Charms
The deep blue hue of the accent walls and cabinets is what brings out the cool grey shade of the machines, the natural wood flooring, and the white wallpapered walls.
Those lovely sapphire tones really tone down the starkness of the white and add so much character to the room.
25. Farmhouse Elegance
Here’s where classic dove grey meets a rustic farmhouse design. Complemented with elegant grey wallpaper and silver hardware, the result is a truly charming and beautiful laundry space.
The lovely rustic elements include natural woven baskets, canisters, and the cabinet facing.
26. Fun Baskets
You’re going to need a lot of organizing paraphernalia in your laundry room. So why not ditch the boring hampers and plastic bins for these charming and elegant baskets?
They are so handy and pretty. Plus, they come in different sizes, shapes, and designs, and you can even line them with different colors!
27. Bright Pastels
Fun, cheerful, colorful, and bright. This laundry room is just filled with bright colors!
The baby blue cabinets and white counters are totally dominated by the perky wallpaper in mixed pastels and the framed flower vase watercolors. It’s a case of the fun and perky overriding the tamed and classic.
28. Yellow Accents
A bright and perky yellow laundry room will cheer up even the dreariest of laundry days. The classic yellow damask wallpaper brings in such a perky and chic vibe.
Meanwhile, the butterscotch splashback tiles add a touch of rustic charm.
29. Washing Views
What a delightful room for a not-so-fun chore. You can lighten up the tedium of washing clothes by having a great and entertaining outlet like wide windows.
Huge windows will open up the room and make it appear bigger and more spacious. It will also let in natural lighting and give you a view of the outdoors!
Be sure to dress up your windows with some fun and delightful curtains.
30. Cheerful Plants
This bright and cheerful laundry room has it all: fun wallpapered walls, large windows, a white and blue rug, and several potted plants.
Bringing plants into the interior gives the room additional colors, a touch of nature, and a breath of fresh air.
31. Furry Helpers
What could possibly be more cheerful and fun than having your furry friends as laundry helpers? I love the idea of setting up a pet bed next to your laundry machines.
It will keep your cuddly pets comfortable while they keep you company with the laundry.
32. Shutter Windows
You can really up the charm in your laundry room by installing charming elements like shutter windows. The white shutters keep the room nicely shaded without blocking out all the light.
Meanwhile, the green jars and potted plants break up the white monotony and bring in a fun and cheerful vibe.
33. Leafy Walls
You can infuse a touch of nature into your tiny laundry room. The potted fern adds a touch of color, and the lovely leaf-printed wallpaper is a graceful accent to break down the white monotony.
To complete the chic and stylish look, just add a white furry rug.
34. Lemon and Lime
Perky, bright, fun! This laundry room is a far cry from the ascetic white we so often see. It features exciting shades of yellow and green, making the room feel exciting and uplifting.
It’s also filled with fun details, including the ombre wall, the laundry clip rug, and yellow counters. I feel like washing clothes has never been more enjoyable.

Charming, bright, and colorful. This delightful laundry room is a roomful of blue patterns, prints, and shades.
