A mum with a flair for DIY home projects has revealed how she renovated her laundry in six days on a tight budget of less than $1,000.
Amber, from Perth, Western Australia, shared a series of images on social media detailing how she transformed the laundry from a dull, outdated space to a modern room in her house.

‘It’s such a small space and we had a tight budget but really happy with what we achieved,’ she wrote on Facebook.

After removing the washing machine and any pre-existing cupboards, Amber and her husband painted the back wall and installed new cabinets, a wooden bench, sink, tapware and sheers.
The splashback behind the sink was also made using old tiles Amber already owned.
The pair were able to finish the project in a short amount of time because the plumbing and tiles weren’t replaced.
The strategic inclusion of the white walls, cabinets and high sheer curtains made the newly renovated space look bigger.

‘The only regret we have is not thinking properly about the washing machine waste – we should have put this through the side of the cabinet and not the bench,’ Amber said
‘So happy with how clean the space feels after having such an old laundry previously,’ Amber wrote.
