Here’s some stage by stage condo renovation pictures. We have a little nook off the dining room. I think it used to be a porch at some point, but it was closed in. The nook is the area where I was going to set up all my bookshelves. It previously housed the former owner’s collection of dolls.

That being said, there are so many other rooms to fix I don't think we'll be touching the laundry room soon.

I agree with ludewig that that switchplate is a collector's item and should not be trashed. People used to think that switchplates like that were evidence of the progress that injection-molded polymers allowed. I thought the laundry wallpaper had a certain ’50’s touch that was over the top.

AIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! The picture acutally makes the pink stripes look better than they are in real life.

The lady that we rent from has that same banner of floating launry in our laundry room. I sympathize, though I do like the pink stripes. Oh my gosh you live in my house!

That's one-of-a-kind kitsch. What kind of store sells such stuff? Your place beats the pants off of my SLC house from a few years back. At least you don't have to undo decades of neglect and poor building! Wow, can I have that switchplate from the laundry room? That’s one-of-a-kind kitsch. What kind of store sells such stuff?

Somebody had too much time on their hands. The person who did that should be banned from watching TLC, HGTV and BBC America. Apparently there is a limit to DYI. WOW!
