![]() We figured out a way to add a small closet in our hallway that was pretty much dead space any way. These stackable appliances have a small enough footprint that they really don't require a great deal of floor space. But, with the increasing popularity and availability of front-loading, stackable washers and dryers in recent years, it occurred to me that maybe we could find a place for a small laundry closet on our second floor. As envious as I was of people who had homes with convenient laundry areas, we just didn't think we had the space to add one to our 2nd floor. Honestly, that's so obvious that I don't know why houses were ever designed any other way. I'd been hearing about the trend of having laundry rooms on the same floor with the bedrooms. That has meant hauling the dirty laundry down 2 flights of stairs (except for 1 house that had a laundry chute), and then hauling the clean laundry back up those stairs. In our last 3 homes, the washer and dryer were as far as they could possibly be from the bedrooms where the dirty laundry originates. We don't like the lack of closet space, small kitchens, and laundry areas that are in the basement. We love the charm and character of old houses with high ceilings, wood floors, and beautiful woodwork inside and big trees outside. Our current 2 story home was built in the 1920s. King-Man and I have always lived in old houses. But, it's a necessary chore that everyone has to deal with. A year ago my laundry life changed in a way that made my life considerably yummier.įirst, some background. What in the world could be yummy about laundry? Personally, I've always hated doing laundry. ![]() After all this is supposed to be about The Yummy Life. ![]() It might seem strange to talk about laundry in this blog. ![]()
