Today is the final part of my laundry room makeover where we bring everything together! From tiling to painting, patching doors and so much more, we have transformed this laundry room into my ideal clothes washing sanctuary (if you will). I also created a zellige checkered tile countertops that can be perfect for a bathroom vanity or countertop application like i did (even a shower OMG). #ad #LGPartner

Thanks so much for watching and I hope you enjoyed. Leave any future video ideas you would like to see in the comments below and don't forget to subscribe!
I should also note the hand rail for the left of the stairs is currently being made! I completely forgot to mention that in the video. She will be installed ASAP to prevent any accidents of course :) We never use this back stairwell so until then we are using caution!
So happy to hear that - every time you went near it I winced and had to close one eye :)
OMG I came to the comments just to see if that was being addressed; y'all had my blood pressure sky high every time you went near the stairs LOL
Excellent
I am relieved!! The last cupboard was perfect. Your friend has infinite patience!!
@@KRC-es1xiExcept if someone was injured, their expenses wouldn’t be covered under insurance if there isn’t a stair rail.
Im glad you took out the old cabinet, it was NEVER meant for that space!
Yes I agree, the hutch however adorable just didn’t look right in the space. I think this one fits much better.
Bad, bad, bad.....you should not block off your water turn off on your washer. Make it a pull down front if you want, but to depend on pulling out your washer to gain access is such a bad idea. The laundry room is stunning. I especially love your antique armoire. ❤❤❤
I love it when people actually pay attention to the fact that the laundry room can also be decorated and beautiful. Great job Drew!
thank you so much :)
He ruined everything 😂
Tip from my cabinet guy... When you have an issue like you had with the Billy bookcase where wood tones weren't matching because of sun exposure, take your doors and either A) set them outside in direct sun for several hours, or B) take them to a tanning salon to sit on a bed for 15-30 mins. It allows the wood to get the same patina as the rest of the cabinet so it matches better.
haha, I can imagine the faces when you go to the tanning salon with a couple of cabinet doors 😛
WOW! I love this
*That's GREAT advice‼️👍🏼*
That is hilarious but makes so much sense actually!
Tanning salon ? Ok 🤨
Just a note as a plumbers wife here 🙋🏻♀️ if ur drain ever backs up it could overflow at the washing machine drain onto back of wall 😬 making it accessible quickly to turn it off could prevent a lot of damage- maybe put a sensor on the wall or near by that can tell u if water overflows and isn’t visible right away? Just a thought, I’m sure simply safe has something for that.
Your "new" cabinet is a bachelor's chest. The small section above the drawers would have been for hats. I love the little stool on top of the cabinet. I use ones like that and the little bench type on shelves or on top of cabinets all the time. Your room is so beautiful!
It is a chifforobe.
@@user-lg7tw5ox4f
Yep. It's a chifforobe. And also known as a gentleman's chest. A bachelor's chest is just a regular chest of drawers with a slanted surface at the top meant to be used as a writing desk. It's not the chifforobe configuration of drawers and cubbies behind doors.
Totally agree!
And the door would have likely had a mirror depending on said gent's status.
Love the new cabinet... Laundry room looks fab!!!
Love love love! So happy you found the “new” armoire - it’s perfect! And I really appreciate following how you are honoring the historic style of the home while still updating it! ❤
Beautiful
I would use Murphy Oil on it 👍
I think a plant like a fern or something similar would look good on that stool. Put it on the floor by the cabinet. Lorraine
I ran out! I am going to :) @@maureen8930
Looks great! Just hope U don’t have to turn the water off in a emergency.
Looks great! 😍 I can imagine some amber apothecary bottles and jars full of all your laundry soaps and other essentials lined up on the shelf and counter.
Ahhh love this idea!!
Man, you have come a long way, i remember you when you were still a fashion channel. Not that theres anything wrong with that but i think you really shine with interior design
Yes sir! That cabinet belongs there! Thank goodness!!!
Always felt some of the sun-bathed images in your previous apt were worthy of being sold as poster art. The shot from the kitchen, with the angled sunlight on the 'new' old cabinet (which perfectly suits the space) is another. Stunning! Or, perhaps, images for a future book.
Omg, yes! Maybe a book he can display in his living room. It would be perfect with the lights!
What a great idea for a coffee table book.
I would die for a Lone Fox coffee table book!!
So glad about the cabinet. I almost always love your picks, even if it’s not my preferred style. It rarely happens, but I truly hated that other cabinet.
Beautiful! But how do you not be afraid of someone falling off the ledge down the stairs since you took the railing out? For us elderly people (over 65) that is a scary area. 😂❤
“Sorry about my appearance” literally looks flawless 😂
I am so glad you changed the armoire in laundry room twice!!That marketplace find is perfect.
What I love about your channel and content, Drew is you get right to the point. Let me explain.... You show your projects, walk us through what we are interested in learning, you educate us, inspire us, you showcase your projects, and entertain us without endless rambling. I have noticed lately that some other content creators who I have loved and followed for years are starting shift their focus from their lovely content to pointing the camera on themselves and just ramble on and on without showing us projects, DIY's or what attracted us to their channel in the first place. I realize people's channels are free to evolve but I appreciate your channel as I personally feel it has remained true for me after all these years!
That's so much better than the previous cabinet.
You are so incredibly talented Drew. So many of us just ignore the laundry room, you made yours gorgeous.
It's a fantasy laundry room, and I'd bet that there are even more ideas on the brew!
The chair rail behind the cabinet was killing me, the new cabinet looks great! The light fixture is giving Lowe's vibes. Drawer slides would've been great on the countertop for making the plumbing and exhaust more accessible. A lot of house fires are caused by lint buildup in the dryer exhaust, so it's something you want easily accessible for cleaning.
Yes!, or hinges, or ability to lift the backsplash and shelf off so you can access the turn offs.
I agree. Maybe it's cause I'm a Mom and have done more laundry than I care to remember but when he said he could pull the washer or dryer out to get to the water turn off or plug and my mind was just like NO. I just think minutes count and there may be regrets with that design in the future. That said it all looks gorgeous, just not entirely practical. Also, that drop by the stairs stresses me out.
Yes, Drew, you will want quicker access....
Yeah that part was confusing me - I thought surely I must be misunderstanding until he started putting the tile on top of it. I don't really get that choice at all, especially when they've already had a massive leak in that room before.
Dryer lint clean out is also very important. My neighbor had a fire due to a loose connection and build up of excess lint.
FINALLY a laundry room that isn’t just butcher block & beige cabinets lol. obsessed with that tile ✨
Omg a Vining, plant or trailing plant sitting on top of the little stool that is on top of the cabinet would be so beautiful
Wow!!!! Hated the first cabinet. That second one is wow. The tile wow with that stain. Everything is wow. And it’s a damn laundry room! 😂. I so dig it.
Hey Drew, hi from Sydney. Will you put a railing back along the stairs? Makes me slightly anxious watching you guys near the edge.
I’m so glad about the 1st cabinet! I loved the idea behind what you were doing but it wasn’t quite right there. I’m looking forward to the evolution of it!
The room is beautiful!
"...it's like 4 pm. And why is it dark? We don't know." Lol. I feel you so much.
I love you adding water to DRIED plants Drew... 😂
Hey just wondering when you are going to put a railing up at the stairs? I was sweating it big time when you were showing us the painting with your back to the opening....heart attack waiting to happen! But love the room! My favorite is the cabinet and the way you styled it!
The laundry room came out beautifully! I would’ve loved to see you add detergent and softeners, wool balls , etc. in pretty containers inside the cabinet! It would be the little added bonus! This was an overall nice transformation🤩
I want to do a Kitchen & Laundry room organization video to share how I organize the cabinetry!
Remeber to cover with plastic foil inside to prevent damage on wood. @@lonefox
Please hang the rug with the "tapered" part pointing up. Its actually a truncated arrow. If the rug were on the floor, that part would point toward Mecca, so maybe it should point up toward the positive.☺
I love whole laundry room, the counter, the floor, the paint, the appliances, the light fixture, and especially the chiffarobe (that's what we in Tennessee call the half-wardrobe, half-chest). In the early 1900s, a gentleman's shaving supplies would have occupied the little cabinet atop the drawers.
I'm begging to install a rail because I'm scared that someone will take a tumble down those steep stairs!
The cabinet you bought is the same exact one that was my great great grandmothers, and it goes back to the late 19th century. The only thing missing is that the little square door, has an old mirror in it. I envision one day when we are all gone, this house will be an ode to your design and it will be featured as a historical relic and museum. ❤❤❤
I started reading the comments while watching the clip and couldn't understand how the new cabinet (the ikea cabinet, I thought) could be considered a better option than the folklore cabinet? The Ikea cabinet was too modern for the place and the wrong wood color. I'm so glad there was a third option, because this turned out perfect. So beautiful!
Love Drews face filled with joy when he sees his vision coming together so beautifully. 🧡
This cabinet is a much better scale for that wall. Good job! Also, I have to agree with everyone below. Replace the railing asap!
Yes, every time you walk backwards I was concerned you would fall down the stairs. PLEASE, PLEASE put up some sort of a railing. I love the laundry room. Now, I have to do mine!!!
When the water lines to the washer fail, how are you turning off the water? You will have to remember to go outside and turn off the water there. You’ll have to tear down the back wall to replace the hoses.
Absolutely. It would have been only slightly more difficult to make that front panel detachable or able to open. Such an overlook
@@rekwa3860 you could change the water hoses to steel braid hoses that tend to last longer.
I am happy to see you put in a clothing drying station. I think that you will really enjoy it! FYI…I think the primary cabinet looks amazing. It’s the perfect touch!
Much better than the other diy painted cabinet
I love how you allowed those arches to breath air back into the space.
I like the makeover but have a concern about access to the water shutoff valves for the washer incase of emergency. My friend had the hose for the hot water come off. She ended up with a small lake before she was able to shut off the water. One person I know shuts off the water each time they have finished the laundry. Also, recommended to shut off the water if going away.
Totally agree.
That armoire is perfection! I’m so glad you found it, because I wasn’t feeling the other one. I also love the little stool on top.
chifforobe
love it! I personally would hang a picture above the washer and dryer and remove the candle sticks.
Drew, that laundry room is just amazing. What a blend of modern and old world.
I love it! The back side of the rug & cabinet are perfect for the space. Please but a railing up before someone gets hurt.
STUNNING!!! REPLACE THE RAIL!!!
LG ARE THE BEST APPLIANCES AND TVs I only buy LG for my home !! Life’s good baby!!
I adore the little stool on top of the armoire. 😊
I love how you’re able to pivot and troubleshoot without getting discouraged! Also props to you for getting creative and painting the original armoire. Im sure it’ll be great once you’re able to complete your vision.
I highly recommend sheets of detergent versus liquid detergent. It’s easier to store, significantly less messy, keeps your new washer cleaner and is ecologically sooooo much better because you didn’t purchase a huge plastic container.
Literally the most beautiful laundry area I’ve ever seen
Did you find a banister yet? I love everything!
Love the $75 old cabinet, best! Wall color is so pretty! Love how staining the tiles made them appear more vintage. And the washer n dryer! Gorgeous!! Very cool to see the factory!
The wardrobe is a 1.000 times better than the one before. And I really love the floor and the walls. I'm not sure about the ties over the washer to the honest. But, all in all, a large improvement to how it was before. Next space: Bathroom. :)
Love how you decorated the Muslim Prayer mat.... The design is so PERFECT! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Looks good. I'm worried that one of you are going to go down those stairs head over heels! Should you not have a protective railing there?
I love when even a laundry room is beautiful and decorated :)
Vermeer vibes
A Vermeer print would fit right in :)@@judegabbard2081
It's just right, Drew. Every detail is chef's kiss. The stool can be pulled down if you want to put a foot up while folding your laundry so your back doesn't start to ached.
I loved the high contrast. I was like screaming in my head…NOOOOO. But I was wrong. I love it all.
I definitely like this armoire better than the other one. It just fits perfectly and looks incredible framed through the kitchen entryway. 💜
I love everything bar the tiles above the washer & dryer, the colours to me aren't vibing. I usually love everything you do though ❤
Man, as soon as you showed the rug, I had the same thought that the back was so much nicer for this space!
Countertop looks like suede and black leather weave - nice, very warm and masculine feeling. ❤
Love everything but the rug. Tile is great!
Beautifully done as always!
Wanted to let you know for any future timing projects (or for anyone else who happens to see this) you can actually cut a square hole in your wooden framing to create an “access panel” that can be reattached with magnets and still tiled over (only with silicone caulk instead of grout for easy removal). Contractors usually build these into built-in jacuzzi tubs so plumbers can access the mechanisms beneath the tub surround. From far away, the caulk will look identical to the grout (provided you purchase both in the same color) and no one else will be any the wiser that a small section of that tiled surface can actually be pried open to access whatever is underneath.
Obviously this job is already completed, but if you find yourself ever wanting to redo the tile in the future or constructing a similar project in the future, this could be something to consider to save yourself the hassle of moving appliances. 😊
Nice tip
I love you so much Drew. Been struggling a lot with mental health recently and whenever I need a ray of sunshine, there you are.
Yes on the stool atop armoire. No on the prayer rug. Please get light switch plate for next to ironing board. Also some sheer curtains for window diffused light. I envy your day job. Also I love ❤ the two of you gents together.
Love, Lizzie
The LG clips are ssoooo cool
So glad you switched out the cabinet, the new one feels perfect! And we have the LG w/d and it is hands down AMAZING! 🤩
I’m obsessed with the final armoire (arm-war) choice!!!! Couldn’t be more perfect and beautiful.
Drew, please do us, your guests and yourself a favor and install some sort of vintage railing between the armoire and the stairwell for safety. Makes me nervousevery time you stand close to that area. 😮
LOVE the prayer mat as decor! you’re totally right about being able to decorate with it as long as it’s not in a bathroom 🥰❤❤ gorgeous makeover gorgeous tiling - GREAT WORK! the before was so bland and plain & u just gave it SO much quality, depth, and movement… absolutely stunning!
Where can one purchase a prayer rug?
Put some rails coming up the stairs. Was afraid you were going to fall stepping backwards.
A tall basket on casters would be cool and functional.
Prettiest laundry room I've ever seen.
What I find amazing about you Drew is how your styling and color combinations continue to surprise me. To me, your always thinking outside the box and have the courage to follow through with your ideas. And the even bigger surprise is how much I really like/love them when you're done. Justin's pink sunglasses made me smile...he looked so cute!!! ❤❤
Drew, your enthusiasm is one of the most attractive things about your channel ❤️❤️❤️
I’m always amazed by your creativity, and style. You are the only stylist that I watch, thanks for always being you.
When we bought our house we purchased a front loading LG washer and dryer. It’s now been 17 years and they’ve been absolutely amazing. I’ve never had any major issues with either one of them, and they’ve always washed our clothes tremendously. I hope you enjoy yours as much as we do ours!
Ahh that's amazing to hear!
I must admit to a little washer and dryer envy!
So glad you found this "new" armoire. It suits the room much better than the previous one/s. Looking forward to seeing where you will now place the painted one.
The laundry is not only beautiful but functional.❤ I wold like to see a bathroom Reno next.
The fact he found the Armoire from his inspiration picture in the Marquetplace. Insane!😮
Drew is such a cutie the way he smiling at us after he hung the clothes on the curtain rod 💜
I literally said to myself "awe he's so sweet and cute" when he did that!
I must say, he is pretty damn cute.
I’m worried there is no rail by the stairs now .
I’m a little jealous of you UA-camrs being gifted all the stuff! Love your cabinet, so beautiful and your decor pieces.
Don't worry about it. In this case, you absolutely do not want a washer and dryer that's accessible via an app. That's kind of a cybersecurity risk. It's best to not buy into this "internet of things" trend.
It’s always great to have a space to fold clothes and also to hang items that can’t be put in the dryer.
I love how you took the space from a slick, modern 2020’s look to an old European villa vibe. Well done!
Very nice make-over. Laundry rooms need beauty, too, especially out in the open, like yours. What about replacing the handrail beside the stairs? Maybe I missed what you were going to do there. It needs a rail for safety, but you would know that. 😊 Lovely space, Drew.
Yo!!!! An LG sponsorship. That's such a major brand, congrats 🎉
Floor is my favorite ❤
Every room you tackle becomes an astounding work of art. Your eye and talent are unmatched!
Each and every one of your videos just amazes me more and more. How on earth does anyone ever think of creating a warm, inviting and cozy laundry room. Well you did of course! From my experience a laundry is either minimalist and cold or a room that gathers more and more odds and ends that have no other place to live. It’s usually a room where you keep the door firmly closed. What a beautiful job you have done on this room. It is so integrated with the rest of the house. I’d certainly be showing it off if it was mine. Certainly no closed door for this beauty. Congratulations Drew you have done it again. One thing though, as a great grandmama, I would certainly put a railing along that small area where the stairs are for safety. 😊💕
That old piece is so amazing. I love old dressers, cabinets, bookcases etc.
The new hutch is…chefs kiss.
LOVE the new cabinet that you found for the space! Literally perfection!! I think the other two just had too light of a wood tone and the dark pairs so nicely coming from the kitchen with the dark cabinets
I would do laundry everyday in that pretty laundry room ....as always good job :)
the 1st thing that comes to mind when watching the lg factory is the terminator movies. then I feel like someone is going to fall off the ledge without rails. besides that Drew's designs are always beautiful.
I'd like to see an antique iron and washboard on top of cabinet.
not in love with the checkered pattern here though, too busy still. Otherwise lovely
Now that cabinet works! I love the laundry room. The floors are beautiful!
I totally agree with the last person, please get some rail in.
