24/365 Laundry


Probably my favorite feature in this old house is the laundry chute in the bathroom...it goes right to the basement. Problem is I still have to do the laundry :( I have actually gone down there and have had a pile that almost touched the chute. How is it that the boys generate sooo much laundry? oh well. I used a posterized filter on the aluminum chute only to give it some more depth. Sorry about the focus my head only fit a through the hole a little bit (and I really didn't want the boys to see what I was doing - monkey see monkey do!)

  1. How very convenient! Very neat feature!

    Now you just have to find a way to have the laundry pulled back up through the chute once it's done and have it arrive at the top all neatly folded! ; )

  2. Fun picture, Candy!

    I can't believe your boys haven't figured out all the great things one can do with a laundry chute. I think my older brother and I need to have a chat with your little guys; we'll just give them an overview of the possibilities!

  3. I had one of those in my room when I was a teen. And I still remember my floor being littered with dirty clothes. I think that's when my mom started making me do my own laundry...

  4. Good idea for a variation on laundry -- I mean, what can you do about a pile of dirty laundry besides wash it?

  5. Wish I had a chute. Good idea for the theme too! Good thing you don't have girls - when they're teens they have to change clothes for evry different thing they do and wouldn't dream of wearing the same pair of jeans to school and then to the movies - and all end up in the laundry.

  6. Yea, I wish I had a chute, too I would shoot them off to someone else to wash. I like this view, well done.

  7. Is that all that goes down the shoot? LOL! I am glad I am not the only one with tons of laundry - this blog stuff kinda takes away from doing that - ha! Nice perspective to this!

  12. I have a laundry chute also! When we first moved here it was the oddest thing as I'd never seen one before. Of course I love it. That's a GREAT photo & a SUPER take on the theme!
