A Folding Surface. In my own laundry room, I have a plain white laminate countertop where I do all the folding – just that 2 x 4’ amount of space makes all the difference in the world.

Check out Wilsonart’s many laminate solutions for creating a laundry room folding surface in your home.
If you prefer the stone look, the Wilsonart collection of laminates offers homeowners the beauty and durability of real stone at an affordable price. Inspired by marble and granite from the world’s quarries, their countertops have a realistic look with natural flow patterns and mineral details. See a few examples of their marble choices in this post on laminate kitchen countertops.
Drying Solution for Delicates. I built a drying rack for this very purpose several years ago and it is still one of my favorite and most useful projects to date. If you’re not up for the DIY versions, there are several you can buy or a simple rod and hangers can accomplish the same task.
A Sink. Space and budget permitting, a sink is more of a luxury, but one I plan to incorporate into any future home build. A basin with faucet that’s ready to to rinse muddy or stained clothing is definitely a plus in any active household.
