They make great containers for plants to perk up your

Cute and recycled! With all this crazy weather and bringing plants in and out, that is a great idea. Have a great day!

What a cute idea! Unfortunately I only have a 'laundry closet' and as often as possible the doors are closed and the lights out, so no live plants would last very long. But I did decorate it with a line of laundered vintage aprons hanging overhead. You can see pics on my blog here >>> http://camelliacottagediary.blogspot.com/2008/12/apron-giveaway-you-say.html.

Love your blog! Becky G.

So cute! Unfortunately, our washer and dryer are in the dark, dank, cave-cricket-infested cellar...

LOVE all your christmas decorations. I just had so much fun looking back on your past posts...

Wishing you joy in the New Year!

I love that idea. Wish I had a laundry room. My washer and dryer are in the garage.

I wish I had a laundry room instead of a "laundry basement". Have a great day.

Well here's another reason why I love your blog. I love the way you think outside the (laundry detergent ;) box.

Have a great day!

Super cute!

[Kimberly C.]

Now why didn't I think of that. Great idea!

[Barb @ Grits and Glamour]

Super cute idea! If only I could keep a real plant alive. sigh!

[bj]

How cute this is...I use the liquid detergents so I had no idea the boxes were this cute now. I also have a laundry closet instead of a room but this is a precious idea....

[Gina @ Six in the Country]

I have painted the boxes before, to contain things like starch, shout, etc, that you need. Never thought of putting a plant into one, though!

[Karen Baruth]

Very cute idea! I have my detergent in a big jar with a tea cup scoop. Maybe I need a plant to liven things up. . .

[Cheryl]

You are always thinking..that is very, very clever! Happy New Year to you and your family!

[jodi]

That is such a cute idea. I wish that I had more of a laundry room than a glorified closet. At least it's better than the last house where laundry facilities were on the back porch!!

Cute idea and a neat way to "reuse". Enjoy your day!
