Readers of the blog know we recently finished a major home renovation. One of my favorite hacks is in our laundry room, where we had an old-school (retro like 1960s) lobby intercom AND an electric wiring box that required covering up. Since we need access to the electrical box, we wanted something cheap, easy, and replaceable. The laundry room is fun and playful (my favorite room in the house), so we added to the fun by covering the wall with place posters and washi tape.

UGLY! HELP! SOS!

Fun tiles, crazy wallpaper, but OH MY, the left wall is horrible.

Solution to the problem: cheeky posters with neon tape.

Love the cheerfulness and fun

Good words and reminders for us all!

Yes, true. Work hard and be nice to people.
The posters are available to buy on etsy here and here. And if the posters get destroyed, we can easily replace them with different ones! Just an element of humor and fun to the room — can’t take life too seriously!

This is the retro state of the room when we bought it (pre renovation).

It was their kitchen, which we made in to the laundry room.

During construction…..

The tiles scream happy. And fun. And playful.

This is the wallpaper on the entrance to the laundry room, opposite the new fun (and cheap) posters.
A huge addition and change….it is actually my favorite room in the apartment!
I completely adore those tiles and the motivation posters are simply beautiful. Great words to start off your day!
Love this!
Super cute.. I want that wallpaper!!
