Laundry room makeover | Ikea pax hack + diy peg rail
Most rental apartments in Germany come with a small separate storage room in the basement. Since half of our apartment is already in the basement, this extra room is within our apartment and fortunately for us, it's pretty spacious.
Over the last few months, I have been reorganizing that room and created a storage corner, a home gym and (yay!) a pantry. Initially we'd wanted to install our washer and dryer into this room as well, but that was not possible. Instead, it had to be installed in our adjacent bathroom. But... the dreams of having a laundry room were not to be killed! So here is the journey of creating our dreamy blue laundry corner ☁️

Hey, I watch every video on your channel. You are so talented in making places really cozy :) I really enjoy watching how your create all these details. It's so amazing how you can choose all the colors and configuration of your shelves, doors etc. that they match soooo well together and I just can't stop watching how this coziness is made :) thanks for the video :)

I admire your talent and ability to design your space so beautifully.❤
I just got to tell you, yours are the only diy videos that calms my nerves and doesn’t give me fomo. It’s more like watching a movie with a beautiful ending always. Kudos to the way you direct them. I’m addicted.
I love how involved pat is, especially when choosing the knob placement 😂 so sweet. Beautiful space 🤍 it’s incredible how a space can affect how we feel
I loved how you took us through the decision making and all! Choosing the placement of the knobs looked more difficult than it should be; I was really torn too!! The powder blue looks so clean and nice, I’m impressed!
The beadbord look was quite popular in Germany about 15 years ago with the "Landhaus" trend. My Ikea kitchen has this design and I still really like it, it has such a cozy elegant vibe
Hi beautiful awesome💞💖💖💞💖💞❤💞💖💖💞
As always, your ability to build custom-made furniture, hacks or not, blows me over! What a wonder you are, truly. Wish I were as handy as you, I could imagine half a dozen home improvement projects for my own house.
So calm and peaceful! What a beautiful space to have!! Great work! Thanks for sharing. ❤
Gorgeous! It is so beautiful and you are a DIY queen. One thing I would have added, would be another handle on the corner door. Although you dont open it from that side, it would be more harmonious and aesthetically complete to add a handle to that door, as it feels like something is missing there. Since the laundry is used only by you, you know which handle to open and which handle is "faux"
Lovely! You videos do an excellent job of showing how you accomplished something without being a super in-depth tutorial. I’ll be tackling peg rails for my laundry room soon, but wasn’t sure how to go about it. I had a much more complicated method in my mind! Thanks for showing how you did yours.
I love the subtlety of the beadboard texture.
This laundry room is pure perfection! Your woodworking skills are very good and your vision for a project is spot on. You did an amazing job! Good on you!
Wonderful. Makes me happy just seeing the results. I too am in Germany & appreciate seeing which products you use. Thank you!
Love watching you create rooms- this space is functional and beautiful. Love it ❤ Your hard work paid off.
So cute and sweet laundry room 🥰👍👍👍👏 I love your video so relax ❤️
You’re kidding right? I’m sure that’s a dreamy laundry rooms for many people, myself included, and you built everything practically from scratch 😭😭 you should be proud, that room looks amazing😍❤
It's a lovely laundry room area. I really like the bead board wallpaper inserts, I'm a fan of bead board. All that storage too and functional space. You planned it out very well, thought of everything. Nicely done!
An absolutely truly beautiful result as always! I really wish I had that much space in my home to get creative, but I can only dream of having a basement ^^
That is so beautiful and it seems like you were very precise in your design decisions that greatly improved the function of the space you have available. I hope you now smile each time you go into the room 😍
I always get so excited when you upload a new video! The laundry room turned out so beautiful! You inspire me to want to do my own DIY’s as well! Our closest IKEA is 17 miles away, wish ours was as close as yours is to your home! So convenient! I’m in love with the blue color chosen and it brings so much life! I love how organized and articulate you are!
I really love that we have identical cabinets 💙💙💙 down to the top mounted hardware! Love how functional the space is now.

@@cloudyhills I'M HONOURED. My floating shelves will be dedicated to your wood tones 😘
I've watched your videos from the beginning, and every space you change I'm in awe of...your skill and eye for detail, for function and aesthetics, is amazing. I'm sure if you considered being an interior designer as a full-time career you'd have a client wait list as long as your arm, honestly, your style and manner is amazing ❤ Suzy
I love watching your videos! It always makes my day and gives me a smile when they come on my feed. Your channel is one of the few that I watch every video of when its uploaded. I love how cozy everything is and appreciate the calming music and the refreshing inspiration it brings into my own life/style of my apartment. Can't wait for the next video! :)
Wow watching your vision come to light 💡 such creativity and really handy with all your tools/equipment. ❤
I never encountered something so relaxing and enthusiastic at the same time. Great channel.
love the colour you chose for the laundry room. this blue/tiel tone is very cosy and calming. also love the wood touch you added in the end. this looks incredible. i feel very inspired by your work, makes me really willing to learn how to work with wood to make big DIY projects at home like you do!
Wow, this is so cute! I love how you customized the cabinets! Also, thank you for the nice, calm, beautiful video. It helped me relax after a rough day ☺️
Simply so elegant and beautiful ❤
Aahhh!! I’m so excited to see this- I’m about to move and have a FULL ROOM for a laundry room! Needed some inspo!! ❤

Lucky you! LG makes a machine that steams everything. You might want to look into that for your laundry room.

Hope to have this soon too. I’m SO looking forward to customizing it.. and my whole home too!
That’s the best laundry room makeover I’ve ever seen. You are so talented to be able to do everything yourself. Well done you! 👍❤️👏
queen i NEED you in my life stat. the way all my DIY dreams would just finally become reality if i had half of your skills oh my god 😭 you make these look so easy!
It still blows my mind when I see someone take their vision for a space from their mind and create it in reality. It's a skill I am still aspiring to be great at. Love, love, love the look of this laundry room and the colours are perfect.
Cloudyhills uploaded?! _prepares popcorn_
what another great room! honestly the way you’re able to make & hack things is brilliant. definitely gives us the confidence to tackle similar projects.
I’m always excited to see when a new video from your channel comes out. The pieces and rooms you create are a work of art.
It is soooo pretty!!!❤❤❤❤ And I am so Happy as I am from Switzerland, what you use seems so much more reachable for me!!! 🥰
That blue color is very nice and I like it.💖 I realized that everything you like is my favorite. I want to live in that house🤣
Just addicted for your vlogs❤❤❤❤ Lots of love from India 🙂🙂🙂🙂
Hey! The one shot you said was pretty impossible to get, I’m gonna have to say it was one of the coolest ones there were on the video!
Love how you explain the „little things“ and especially what the German equivalents are! And in general I also just really enjoy watching you working, maybe because you do everything in such a precise and gentle kind of way (:
I always learn so much from your videos, one example from this one is that I never knew there was such a thing as beadboard wallpaper… genius! Everything looks so pretty, AND functional, well done!
Greetings from the UK! Stunning transformation, well done! Thank you for sharing.
that shade of blue really brightens up the room, it's really pretty and I am always in awe of how you transform your spaces. It's beautiful and functional but you can also change it if you need/want to.
Your voice is so sweet and calming! ❤❤
this blue color is everything!,its really "peaceful " gives calming vibes ✨️
Incredibly beautiful space. Love the cabinet color. The door solution on the corner cabinet was very clever.
Well done! Such a nice job, you are so talented. Besides that you are very handy :) I love the way you edit your videos, they are so peaceful to wacht and straight to the point and not to much chatter. It makes it such a pleasant way to watch you DIY. I like that you use subtext to explain what you are doing. Just overall a very peaceful experience and just wanted to put that out there!
Wowwww never thought I would love baby blue so much! You are sooooooo talented that you should design more spaces for other people as well to make them happy! I love watching your videos. And I love Pat when comes to the rescue. 😂😂😂😂👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏❤❤❤❤❤❤ lucky to have a multi purpose laundry room
You’re very talented 💙☺️ I enjoy watching you. Thank you for sharing the moments with us 🤍
Hillary - you did it again!!! You are such a design force and a wonderful inspiration. Following along your journey is so much fun!
in LOVE with that paint colour wow!!
I gasped so loud when I saw the lovely thumbnail and what channel it is from. Fantastic job, what a dreamy little laundry room!
I love your style! So clean with lots of warmth 😊
The colour you chose is just perfect 😍
This is such a nice space and I love seeing all the ideas you have and how your DIY skills have grown! Really impressive work and I live the pegboard and drying rod. Giving me ideas for my space!
Adding all that functional storage was just so satisfying to watch! You gave me a lot of ideas for my laundry space.
Hands up with your talent and skill. This is coming from a lovely lady, truly inspiring.
You are a genius!!! I will never be able to do this, but I loved this video!!!
Seriously. It’s beautiful and tidy laundry room. The blue colour does suit with the room. Gut gemacht 👍 Hill.
That is such a calm space. I adore doing laundry. Do you ever consult with other people on their projects? I think you have a unique blend of practicality and beauty that is so valuable.
Beautiful job! Love the color, so calming and soothing. So much hard work but just so functional and perfect in the end.
Absolutely in love with this room! It's beyond amazing. Such goood work💜
Absolutely beautiful and functional! What magic talents that you have! Love how it turns out!
Never give up. Great things take time. Be patient

So calm and relaxed to watch your vdo on the rainy day ❤ Love your jobs 😊
That corner door is genius!

Watching your diy vid is like a therapy for me....especially the asmr 😚
The algorithm recommended your diy room redecoration today and I'm hooked. I love your style and just the way you go about things. I don't think it would have ever crossed my mind to be able to diy and woodwork *inside* a flat 🤯 Anyway, I subbed and am excited to see what's coming next 😊
It’s absolutely beautiful and practical! ❤
