Laundry Room Floor

I recently put my house up for sale so I decided to paint my laundry room floor to make the space look a little more finished and nice. Well, since I have my house up for sale I didn't really want to spend very much at all in here and SCORE!!! I found a can of garage floor paint in the clearance section at Walmart for only $14.00! And it was even the right color!! My laundry room is in the basement and has a plain concrete floor that was REALLY ugly... here are some before shots followed by after shots to prove my point...

Before...

paint splatters all over... some from me... some from before I lived here...

and After...

Before...

And after...

And you can see that when we painted the laundry room we didn't really tape off the floor very good (probably because I thought I'd paint it eventually!) and we got overspray all along the edges! You can see what the laundry room looked like when I moved in here and here... brace  yourself... LOL!

Before...

 Ummm.... ewww??


And after...


Here's an in process shot... this is just one coat so you can see how nice it covers! I used two coats and still half 1/2 can left!


So that was a cheap and quick project (it only took me a few hours including dry time) that I think makes a world of difference!
