Mud Room Remodel

Along with the kitchen remodel, we updated the adjacent mud room area.  Originally we were going to gut the space, but we could not come up with anything that was more functional than we already had. Plus if we dug into this room, we would have had to make changes to our heating system which I was unwilling to do.  So, we simply painted everything white (Benjamin Moore Super White), refinished the floors and bought some new storage pieces.  We even left the ugly tile counters and they totally blend in now, well at least I don't notice them anymore!

 

We replaced the light fixture with a school house fixture from restoration hardware that matches the kitchen.

We bought a few new organizational pieces to store all the "stuff" the kids bring into the house. 

Unfortunately, I could not find any before pictures of the back stairs and landing area.  They were cracked, ugly linoleum.  We tiled the entry with the same tile that we used in the new bathroom.

We also had the stairs refinished and the risers replaced.  Like with pretty much every project in this house, it was a bit more work than we anticipated...but we love it!
