One Room Challenge Final Week

It's the final day of the 6 Weeks One Room Challenge I've participated in with a group of bloggers.  I chose to complete my laundry room.  It's a very casual, functional room for our family.  When I started this challenge, I knew I wanted to keep the room very casual as it's where the giant cat spends lots of his time.  I also knew that I wanted fun, vibrant, and happy.   The photo below shows the view of the room from the hall before I started the challenge.

While playing on Pinterest, I started noticing a name that kept popping up.  It seemed that a user named Kathleen DiPaolo and I had remarkably similar taste.  We were pinning lots of the same images.  I knew I recognized her name, so I went through my list of customers on Etsy and found her.  I looked more closely at her boards and realized that she's an interior designer in California.  I was excited to have these lovely images to share with you and know about a new (to me) and talented designer.   All of the above images are from her website . Be sure to check out her gorgeous boards on Pinterest.  I'm showcasing two of them below.  The first is a photo from her board " Girls Rooms " and was pinned via VT Interiors . The second is from " Dining " and was pinned via House Of Fifty .
