I tought about the home decor I wanted in the laundry room. I knew that with all the things going around I was busy all the time. The last thing on my mind was to wait for the dryer.
So I decided to buy 2 stackable dryers at Sears and bolted them together. It doesnt sound simple, let me explain. Initially I make sure to purchase gas dryers. After I hired a licensed electrician and he made sure there was enough power in the laundy room for both dryers. Then we took the exhaust hose from each dryers and connected them so they could vent outside. This was eight years ago, and I still love it!
Also, what helps is that I bought a front loader washing machine. It’s more expensive in the beginning but it’s worth its weight in gold when it comes to energy and water consumption. What I have discovered is that the spin cycle gets more water out than a top loader so my dryer time is about 20 minutes. The other great thing about the front loader is that it has a 8 hour delay button. So, I can set it at 10pm and by the morning, the laundry is ready to go into the dryer! Pretty cool!
Another helpful hint is that I put a Kohler Executive Chef sink in my laundry room. Yes, this is a sink intended for the kitchen but I really like it because it has two different sink depths. This is great when you are hand washing items.
This shows where I take a problem and am able to solve it. That’s why being an interior designer is my passion!
