A pink retro laundry room? No problem (if it’s in miniature)

A pink retro laundry room? No problem (if it’s in miniature)

Let’s face it, doing the laundry would be so much more fun with a retro pink washer and dryer.

Can you spy what else has made this mid-century homemaker so happy?

Thanks to the pairing up of Gypsy Soul Laser Cuts and Canvas Corp Brands, those of us who can’t have a life-size retro pink laundry room can at least make one in miniature.

Heck, with a little ingenuity, we can even have a sink bursting with bubbles!

Bringing the laundry room together are all the little details. You can easily make the Happy Homemakervintage laundry boxes and the jar labels (and a whole lot more) from retro papers I designed.
