Browsing online we always see these absolutely beautiful laundry rooms that inspire the desire to redecorate this nook of the home immediately!  The approach to decorating your laundry room shouldn't be much different than any other room in your home.  You want this space to reflect the overall style of your home, with an emphasis an organization and storage.  Here are some stylish photos to help you decide what kind of laundry room look you want to create.

Rustic Lodge
This laundry room clearly belongs to a rustic lake house or lodge!  The exposed timber walls and thick ceiling beams give the space all the character it needs, leaving the decorative touches simple and refined.  And, what a dream come true to have a sink on hand for easy soaking!

A Little Country
A decorative backslash isn't only for kitchens and bathrooms!  The slightly imperfect geometric tiling is definitely the focal point and provides a beautiful source of color in this laundry room.  The shaker style custom cabinetry provides plenty of closed door storage to tuck away all of those not-so-nice-looking laundry room items.  The cabinetry is also the perfect shade of tinted grey to pick up the muted tones in the tile.

Looking for ideas to decorate your entryway?  This lakeside cabin inspiration board pulls together different pieces, like benches, an accent table, rugs, and throw pillows for a cozy and practical lake house entryway.  Braided rugs are an ideal choice for high traffic areas, especially the ones that are made for indoor/outdoor areas.  They are durable because of the tight weave, and the multi-colored design helps to hide dirt and debris!  One of the most important objectives in outfitting an entryway is to choose pieces that will make organizing easy.  Have a place for the coats, shoes, and backpacks, but also have a smaller table for keys, purses, and maybe even a charging station!  Make it easy to keep clutter and chaos to a minimum. 
What color do you see for the walls in this lakeside cabin inspired hallway?

The concept for this rustic style color board began with the "Country Dream" canvas.  The imagery is so peaceful, quiet, and calm - that is what we wanted to evoke in the color scheme.  Sage, steel gray, and beige lay the foundation for the space, being the quieter colors, and to add contrasting elements, we suggest bold black and burnt orange. In keeping with the country feel, we also recommend using reclaimed barn wood pieces for a rustic element to bring character and texture to the space.  
Where would you like to see this palette in your home?  Is it more of a dining room, living room, or bedroom look?

This coastal cottage retreat was designed by one of our favorites, Sarah Richardson.  Situated on the edge of an island, the cottage has wrap-around windows so you can enjoy the breathtaking view from any angle.  Richardson is well known for her country flair, which is evident in many of her redesign projects, and can be seen here in the cabriole leg dining table and slat back dining chairs.  The country accents are beautifully balanced with the more traditional coastal cottage decor, like the blue and ivory upholstery pieces.
What is your favorite part of this space?

The colorful cottage decor makes this seating area an energetic and exciting space to entertain!  Furnishing a small space can be tough, but choosing the right scaled pieces can make all the difference.  Wicker is a great solution for seating in small spaces, because the frames tend to be more petite in size.  To ensure people are comfortable, add a thick cushion for the seat, and a lumbar throw pillow for the back.  The cushions not only provide comfort, but are a great opportunity to tie the color scheme together.  The long bench seat is another way to add comfortable seating without interrupting the fantastic view from the windows.  And who says you can't have loads of color in small spaces?  This blend of kiwi, lemon, and strawberry pink creates a cheerful ambiance in a big way! Are you a fan of this look?

Rustic elements and classic silhouettes take center stage in this charming lake house living room and dining area.  Since this is an open concept floor plan, it is essential for the two spaces to flow and coordinate with one another.  Using consistent colors, tones, and styles helps to bring the whole look together.

The dining area is a simple and modest space that feels uncluttered and airy, while the living room feels a bit more cozy and relaxing. The living room also features a beautiful Persian rug, which brings in new colors and helps to define the living area. The style of this home is a graceful mix of rustic farmhouse accents and classic country design that some lucky person gets to call home!  Do you envision more art work on the walls if this was your home?  Or would you leave the exposed horizontal boards to shine on their own?

				Do you love the look of natural fiber rugs, but are unsure of which kind would work for your home?  If so, here are a few tips to help you find the right natural fiber (or alternative) rug to achieve the look you want:
Natural Fibers - Sisal

Image: Milk and Honey
Real 100% sisal rugs are beautiful, but they do have some maintenance requirements you should know before purchasing.

	
All spills will stain the rug, but there are ways to minimize the visibility of the stain.  Because water can even stain sisal, use the least amount of liquid when spot cleaning.  You want to use ammonia, vinegar, or detergent, depending on the stain, in a spray bottle diluted with warm water.  Then you can lightly mist the solvent on the stain, blot and repeat until stain has lessened.
	
Sisal has a course fiber consistency, so it's not the most comfortable selection for living rooms or bedrooms where you will be shoe-less.  But if you are okay with the coarse texture, than these are the most durable option for high traffic areas.

Natural Fibers - Wool
Wool rugs are available in a multitude of neutral shades and fiber consistencies.  Wool pile, or wool looped rugs, are a great solution for creating a natural look.

Image: Remodelista


	
Wool pile will shed during the life of the rug, so regular vacuuming is necessary. 
	
They are typically plush and very comfortable for the living room, bedroom, or family area.
	
You want to blot spills immediately, but if the stain does set, than you can use a mild detergent for cleaning.

Natural Fibers - Jute
Jute looks a lot like sisal, but jute rugs are different in texture, yarn color variations, and cost.  

Image: Pinterest


	
Jute tends to be softer on the feet in comparison to sisal, because the fibers have a slight waxy coating to them. 
	
You want to follow the same cleaning instructions as sisal.
	
Jute does tend to shed so regular shaking or vacuuming is recommended.
	
There are color variations naturally in jute fibers, so every jute rug is unique. They tend to be a less expensive alternative to sisal rugs.

Natural Fiber Look-a-Likes: Polypropylene

Image: New England Home
Synthetic fiber neutral rugs have a similar look to sisal and jute, but a very different feel.  They tend to be thinner in pile, but the durability and practicality are priceless.

	
These often come available with a fabric border to jazz up the look.
	
Made of 100% polypropylene material, you can literally hose them off outside and let them dry in the sun when there are spills.
	
The low pile makes it easy for cleaning and vacuuming.

Whatever material you choose, make sure you check with the manufacturer for specific cleaning instructions that you can follow to stay within a rug's warranty.
