Laundry Jars
Store dryer balls, laundry pods and other laundry essentials in these stylish laundry jars. Clear jars look much sleeker on the counter than an assortment of branded containers. With this set, you can not only choose the size of your jar, but also the waterproof label, too.
Clean and Dirty Reversible Sign
Here’s a laundry room decor item that’s both functional and snazzy. Place this reversible laundry room sign on your counter, a shelf above the washer or near your hamper to keep track of your loads. This is a must-have for larger families who rotate in and out of the laundry room frequently.
Lint Bin
Lint bins are a handy laundry room product. We love that you can mount this one to the wall or attach it magnetically to the dryer itself. When you’re ready to get rid of the collected lint, just lift the lid and dump it into the trash. (Psst! Did you know you can use dryer lint in your backyard and garden?)
Laundry Art Print
This laundry art print serves as both a pretty framed item and a refresher on the different types of laundry symbols. You can purchase this print set in multiple sizes and background colors to match the style of your space.
Galvanized Laundry Drying Rack
Contrary to popular belief, drying racks don’t need to take up a large amount of space in your laundry room. You can attach this drying rack right onto your wall for easy access. When not in use, it makes for a pretty farmhouse decoration.
Floating Shelves
Floating shelves have become quite a laundry room staple in recent years—probably due to the fact that they look stunning above a washer and dryer. They add a functional flair by allowing you to store laundry jars, soap dispensers and detergent. Depending on the size, you can also display framed art or decorative knick-knacks on them. We love these walnut floating shelves, in particular, because they come in seemingly countless sizes and depths.
Washer and Dryer Decals
Who says you can’t add stickers to your washer and dryer? Dress them up with these washer and dryer decals to add some fun to your laundry room. These guys are easy to peel off if you want to swap for another style down the road.
Folding Table
If you’ve got a smaller laundry room and you’re tired of hauling your hamper throughout your house to fold clothes, try installing a folding table next to your dryer. This table can collapse for extra space in your laundry room and, don’t worry—it can hold up to 500 pounds!
Laundry Sorter Bag
Everyone needs laundry sorter bags in their lives. You’ll never have to pick through your darks, lights and delicates ever again. Better yet, you can wheel the cart to your laundry room with ease.
Customizable Laundry Sign
Hanging a customized laundry sign will give your laundry room a personal touch. This one hangs beautifully on a wooden hanger frame, and is available in a variety of stains, such as walnut and aged oak.
Laundry Room Runner
The laundry room is a highly trafficked area, so make sure you’ve got a floor runner that keeps your household from slipping and sliding. It also provides a cushy surface to stand on when loading and folding. Bonus: This runner matches the customized laundry sign above!
Laundry Soap Dispensers
Have laundry soap, fabric softener and bleach at the ready with a pumpable dispenser. Similar to the laundry jars, these clear gallon bottles give your laundry room a luxurious feel. You can also purchase these dispensers with a cap if you’d prefer to pour.
Canvas Wheeled Laundry Basket
Wheel heavy laundry loads and towels in this large laundry basket. It doubles as a place to fold laundry, thanks to the wooden top.
Colored Wool Dryer Balls
Replace your go-to fabric softener with natural dryer balls. Each one is made of 100% New Zealand wool. Most dryer balls on the market are pretty uniform in color, so we love that these are vibrant and fun.
Laundry Organization Set
Hello, expert organizer! If your laundry room is in need of a complete reset, this laundry organization set is just the thing for you (and so are these smart Amazon organization finds). Complete with hanging shelves, a drying rack and hanging laundry bag, this set has it all. It’s also modular, meaning that it can fit within most spaces, large or small.
Dryer Sheet Box
Keep dryer sheets within arm’s reach by using this acrylic tissue box as the place you keep them. Because this one is clear and simple, it’ll fit in with any home decor style.
Ruggable Black and White Rug
Separate darks and lights atop this cozy rug. The Hudson stripe rug from Ruggable is unique, because you can detach the decorative rug cover and throw it right into the washing machine to clean up any stains or dirt. If you’re not digging the black and white, this rug comes in other colors, such as indigo, stone and red.
Floating Laundry Bag and Holder
Give yourself more wiggle room by hanging your laundry bag on the wall. This laundry decor item is essential for those whose laundry rooms are on the smaller side. Snag one floating laundry bag or grab three if you like to keep your loads separated.
Ironing Board Organizer
Keep all your ironing needs in one spot with this smart ironing board organizer. Hang your ironing board on the metal hooks and place your iron and steamer in the basket above. You can install this organizer right onto the wall with its easy-to-use hardware.
Laundry Storage Cart
Tuck a compact laundry storage cart in between your washer and dryer for easy access to your go-to laundry essentials. With three wide and tall storage baskets, you can fit larger items, such as laundry detergent bottles, with ease.
Collapsible Laundry Basket
Most laundry baskets take up major space in your laundry room or closet, but this laundry basket collapses to save you the extra space. (And if you want to get technical, you’ll be saving over 70% of storage space!) This basket also features comfortable grip handles that’ll make traveling around the house a breeze.
Lost Socks Clothespin Sign
Keep track of pesky misplaced socks with this clothespin sign. Even without a pair hung up, this laundry decor item is cute as can be. While you’re at it, follow this laundry trick to never lose track of a sock ever again.
Mini Garbage Can
Sure, a garbage can might not be on the top of your wish list when searching for laundry items that’ll revamp your space. But this mini garbage can will make your life a whole lot easier. When you’re ready to take out the trash, just press on the hands-free foot pedal and grab the trash bucket handles for removal.
Hanging Planters
Got a green thumb? Plant real or fake plants to bring life to your laundry room with these hanging planters. Not sure where to start? These houseplants are a safe bet.
Washboard
There isn’t anything more classic than a vintage washboard hung up in the laundry room. Remove it from the wall if your clothes need a good scrub on its galvanized steel surface.
Velvet Hangers
Add a pop of color to your laundry room with pink velvet hangers (or the black, cream or gray options). The soft velvet doesn’t create crimps in your clothing, but the fabric still clings to your dresses, sweaters and shirts to prevent them from slipping off. Practical and pretty—what more could you want?
Themed Wallpaper
This whimsical black-and-white wall paper is so fun! The neutral color palette keeps the print from looking too busy, and the wallpaper is available in a number of materials, including canvas or fabric, to best suit your style. When you’re ready to switch the look, simply peel it off.
