Our laundry room was an unsightly mess, but this weekend we bought laundry room cabinets and cleared the clutter. Now the unsightly cat litter and cat food bins are hidden from view. Um, yes, we use a cat litter box to store the cat food in. Don’t worry – it was thoroughly washed first. The laundry soap that was in the tote now has a shelf. I used to close the door to the laundry room when we had company come over because it was ugly. But not anymore! A trip to IKEA and we have a brand new laundry room cabinet to clear the clutter.
With a small space constraint between the wall and the window we were limited on choices but when we found the BILLY OLSBO at Ikea we knew we had found what just we needed. A search through Amazon yielded some Closet Maid stuff, but we didn’t have that much room. So we knew Ikea would have just what we wanted and we were right! We love the Hemnes collection (maybe a little too much) but liked the covered bottom and glass top of the Billy. Plus, the Hemnes was $170 more than this Billy combo, which is considerably more!
Twenty minutes after my husband secured the cabinet to the wall the cat jumped from the dryer to the top of the cabinet. I wanted to put a vase or some cute decoration on the top, but I have a feeling the cat is going to make that his new napping spot. Here that picture is again…but a little larger.
