The Best TikTok Laundry Room DIYs That'll Level Up Your Organization Game

Whether your laundry room is a spacious room, a corner of the mudroom, or merely a closet, it's a place where you spend considerable time. That's why it's important to make it an attractive and well-organized work area. With a few simple DIY projects, you can transform your laundry room into a pleasant and efficient space where you'll speed through your chores and feel cheerful while you're working.

With some fundamental know-how and basic tools, you can create attractive DIY storage options and laundry-folding surfaces. We've curated a list of ten projects that do not require sophisticated woodworking procedures but do result in renovations that will significantly level up your organization game in the laundry room. Read on to discover the best TikTok DIYs for floating shelves, laundry-hanging systems, a rolling cart, and more.

Many homes feature a single builder-grade wire shelf in the laundry room that not only looks unsightly but also fails to offer adequate storage space. Use pre-cut lumber and plywood along with heavy duty shelf brackets from Lowe's to improve the looks and functionality of your laundry room with DIY open shelving.

First, remove the wire shelf and build a floating shelf that acts as a counter above the washer and dryer. Next, install brackets and shelves at higher levels on the wall and add baskets and attractive containers to organize your laundry supplies.

Add storage space to your laundry room while you hide the ugly plumbing and electrical outlets on the wall above your washer and dryer. With basic carpentry skills, you can build storage cubbies mounted on hinges that are attached to the wall. This allows you to raise the unit when you need to access the outlets.

Measure the space and grab some plywood to build a shallow, rectangular box. Add dividers to create storage cubbies and use non-mortise hinges to attach the unit to a piece of wood secured horizontally to the wall. Linked products are from The Home Depot.

This DIY requires basic carpentry skills, but there's nothing fancy here. The result, however, levels up your laundry room's visual appeal as well as its organization potential. You'll need a stud finder, a level, a handheld drill, a handheld circular saw, lumber, plywood, and wood stain similar to the linked items from The Home Depot.

Find the studs and mount pre-cut lumber to the wall. Build the forms for floating shelves using short pieces of wood and attach them to the wall-mounted support pieces. Cover the forms with stained plywood for a finished look that makes the shelves appear to float.

In some laundry rooms, it's hard to find a flat, clean surface for folding the laundry when it comes out of the dryer. Some DIYers solved the problem by fashioning a removable tabletop that fits over the laundry room sink. Conveniently, it stows away between the sink and the dryer when not in use.

For this DIY, you'll need a pre-cut piece of butcher block countertop from The Home Depot. First, you need to measure the sink and create a template. Then, use a chisel to remove a portion of the butcher block so that it fits over the sink faucet and handles.

Organizing your laundry necessities makes washday less of a chore. You want to keep supplies within easy reach, but a hodgepodge of bottles and boxes looks messy on your laundry-room shelves. Fortunately, you can maximize the decor while you organize your laundry room with nice-looking containers.

Decant your liquid detergent and softener into clear-glass, 1-gallon drink dispensers. Store your dryer sheets, detergent pods, and beaded laundry additives in clear glass canisters. Use containers similar to the linked products from Amazon and create your own labels. Store bleach in its original, opaque bottle as light causes it to degrade.

When you're folding laundry, it feels more comfortable to work at a high-top table rather than a low table that requires bending over. If you're looking for a budget-friendly laundry table, you can DIY the project with a few simple components.

Start with two Rubbermaid shelves from Lowe's and join them together with mending braces to create a tabletop. Next, attach four 40-inch hairpin legs at the four corners of the tabletop. The result will be a high-top table that's ideal for folding laundry.

If you have a shelf on the laundry room wall, you can add on a hanging rod for delicate clothing pieces that need to air dry. Start with two eye hooks and two carabiner hooks along with two leather drawer pulls and a straight curtain rod from Amazon.

Screw the eye hooks into the bottom side of your wall-mounted shelf. Then, remove the metal brads from the leather drawer pulls and use the carabiner hooks to hang the drawer pulls from the eye hooks. Thread the curtain rod through the drawer pulls, and you'll have a hanging rod for drying laundry.

In many laundry rooms, there's a dead space between the washer and dryer. Why not use it for storage? The Room Essentials 3-shelf bookcase from Target measures 9.45 inches deep by 24.5 inches wide by 35.96 inches tall. With these dimensions, it might fit the dead space in your laundry room.

Transform the bookcase into a rolling cart by attaching four heavy duty casters to the bottom along with a drawer pull mounted on the side. Grasp the hardware to maneuver the rolling cart for access to stored laundry supplies. Linked products are from The Home Depot. 

For hanging laundry, you can DIY a rod suspended directly from the ceiling. You'll need four leather drawer-pulls and two C-cup hooks from Amazon along with a stud finder and a length of closet rod from The Home Depot.

First, find the studs in the walls and ceiling. Pre-drill holes and mount two C-cup hooks directly into the ceiling. Remove the metal brads from the leather drawer-pulls and hang them on the hooks. Next, tread the closet rod through the leather pulls. Use two leather pulls on each end of the pole to make it hang down to a reachable height.

If you have wire shelving in the laundry room, you can hang multiple shelves without making additional holes in your wall. You'll need pre-cut shelving boards, a handheld drill, a length of rope, and self-adhesive shelf liner in a color of your choice. Select the linked items from Lowe's or choose similar products.

Drill a large hole in each of the four corners of a shelving board. Cover the board in self-adhesive shelf liner and poke through the holes. Then, thread the rope through the holes and hang the shelf board from the wire shelves in your laundry room.
