A New Look for Your Laundry Room

When I moved into my fixer-upper a few years ago, I didn’t like the appearance of my laundry room. The walls in the room were covered with dark wood paneling. Whenever I needed to wash clothes, I dreaded entering this dreary room. Because I couldn’t afford to remove the paneling and put up drywall, I decided to paint it.
