We didn't even have to get longer hoses or vents, the ones that were there easily reached since it was only about a foot in each direction that they had to be swapped. Hope it helps! xo, s

When you installed your front loaders did you switch your washer/dryer positions, and if so did you just run longer hoses/vents? Ours arrive tomorrow, and we are trying to determine if it is safe to switch the positions, and have the connections criss-cross (so they both open to the outside)in our tiny laundry room!! Thanks for any help! Ali Hi- Love the laundry nook! When you installed your front loaders did you switch your washer/dryer positions, and if so did you just run longer hoses/vents?

When my grandmother died in 2007 my husband & I bought her house, which is a red brick 1950s ranch very similar to yours so I really enjoy seeing all your ideas! Our laundry area is also similar to yours- bifold doors (but with a bit of wall on each side) and a narrow hallway from the backdoor to the rest of the house. We've decided to look into taking your lead and opening up the hallway by taking out the doors/wall of the laundry area. I just have to say I love your blog.

Hope it helps! xo, s
