Best Laundry Room Decor
As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases.
Laundry room decor works best when it also does a job, because the room is usually small, busy and full of cleaning tools. The five listings below are wall pieces that double as storage: two wood broom and mop holders from OUTNILI, two floating wall shelf sets from HOOBRO, and a pair of rustic pipe shelves from Tinpin. Each one adds a finish to a bare wall and gives something to hold, such as a broom, a basket of supplies or a few plants. Every size, weight limit and mounting detail below comes from the listing, and “not stated” marks any gap.
Quick answer
- For a laundry room wall that needs organizing as well as decorating, choose a wood broom and mop holder. The OUTNILI listings give four rubber-clip slots and four hooks each.
- For open display space above a machine or along a wall, choose a floating shelf set. The HOOBRO sets come in 15.7-inch and 23.6-inch lengths and state 22 lb per shelf.
- For a rustic farmhouse look with pipe brackets, choose the Tinpin two-tier shelves. The listing gives a 17.3-inch width and a 44.1 lb maximum weight.
- Before you buy, check the wall type. Most listings in this group say to screw into studs or use the included anchors, and the HOOBRO listing says to avoid installation on hollow walls if studs are not possible.
How to plan laundry room decor that still works
Start with what the room needs to hold. A laundry room usually has a broom, a mop, a dustpan, a few spray bottles and a laundry basket, and each of those takes up floor space if it is left loose. Wall decor that holds tools lifts them off the floor and keeps the room walkable. The OUTNILI broom holders are built for that purpose, with rubber roller clips that hold handles of different sizes. Decor that only sits on a shelf, such as the floating shelves, is better for detergent bottles, small plants, a candle or a row of jars.
Next, think about color and finish. The listings in this group use three main finishes. The OUTNILI white model pairs white wood with stainless steel clips, and the OUTNILI brown model uses rustic wood with industrial clips. The HOOBRO floating shelves come in rustic brown, and the Tinpin shelves are unfinished wood with a brown color listed. A laundry room often has bright white walls and white appliances, so a warm wood tone can add contrast, while a white finish blends in.
Finally, plan the wall. Most of these pieces need a level wall, a stud or a proper anchor, and enough room for the item to clear the appliance door. Measure the wall above the washer and dryer before you choose a length. A 15.7-inch shelf is narrow enough for a small gap, while a 23.6-inch shelf can cover more of a wall but needs more clearance on either side.

The five listings, one by one
OUTNILI white wood broom and mop holder
This holder is made of white wood and stainless steel clips, and the listing gives a depth of 16.9 inches from the wall, a width of 2.28 inches and a height of 2.16 inches. It has four slots for handles and four hooks, and the listing says the rubber roller clips hold tools of different handle sizes without much force. The bullets describe use in the laundry room, closet, garage and mudroom, and they also describe it as usable indoors or outdoors. The specs list indoor usage, so check the listing before you hang it outside. The mounting holes are 16 inches apart, and the package includes a drilling template, screws and anchors. The item weighs 0.44 kg. Choose this version if you want a white finish that blends with white cabinets and walls.
OUTNILI brown wood broom and mop holder
The brown version has the same 4-slot, 4-hook layout and the same 16-inch mounting spacing. The listing describes rustic wood combined with industrial stainless steel clips and calls the finish country charm. The specs list the color as brown and the special feature as rust resistant. Its item weight is 14.88 ounces, and the package includes a broom holder, long screws, anchors and an Allen wrench. The listing does not give a load figure for the hooks or the slots, so keep the weight of the tools in mind. This version suits a laundry room with warm wood floors or a room where you want the holder to look like a piece of decor.
HOOBRO floating shelves, set of 2, 15.7 inches
This is the shorter of the two HOOBRO sets, at 15.7 inches long, 7.9 inches deep and 1.5 inches thick. The listing says the shelves are fixed with invisible dual-pipe iron brackets and state a load of up to 22 lb per shelf. The shelves are rustic brown, and the bullets list display, storage and decorative uses. The package includes two shelves, an accessory kit and instructions. The specs include an installation tip: secure the screws to studs on hollow walls and avoid installation if that is not possible. The item weighs 5.3 pounds for the pair. This set is a good size for a narrow strip above a sink or a machine, where a single row of bottles or a plant will fit.
HOOBRO floating shelves, set of 2, 23.6 inches
The longer HOOBRO set uses the same 7.9-inch depth, 1.5-inch thickness, rustic brown finish and 22 lb per-shelf statement. At 23.6 inches long, each shelf covers more wall, which suits a row of baskets or a longer run of jars. The pair weighs 8.8 pounds. The listing gives a minimum required door width of 23.6 inches in its specs, which is useful if the wall sits next to a doorway. The bullets describe the same accessory kit and the same expansion tubes for concrete or hollow brick. Use the longer pair when you have room for a broader display, and the shorter pair when the wall is tight.
Tinpin rustic pipe shelves, 2-tier
These shelves are made of paulownia wood with metal pipe brackets, and the listing gives a size of 17.3 by 7.8 by 23.6 inches. The bullets describe the wood as solid paulownia and light enough for one person to hang. The specs give a maximum weight of 44.1 pounds, and they describe the finish as unfinished wood with a brown color. The listing names bathroom, bedroom, living room, kitchen and dining room as room types, and it does not list the laundry room, so treat it as a decor shelf that can work in a laundry room rather than a laundry-specific product. The package includes screws and a user manual. The shelves are a good choice when you want a farmhouse look with a bit of height on the wall.
Review: the OUTNILI white broom and mop holder in depth
If you want a single piece to study, the OUTNILI white holder shows what a laundry room decor piece can do. It is built to hold long-handled tools off the floor, so its job is organization first and decor second. The listing gives a 16.9-inch depth, so check that it clears the room’s door swing. The 2.28-inch width keeps the unit thin, so it does not crowd a narrow wall beside a door.
The four slots and four hooks are the feature that matters most. The listing says the slots take broom and mop handles of different sizes, and the rubber roller clips grip them without needing much force. The hooks give you room for a dustpan, a spray bottle or a bag. The listing does not state a weight limit for the slots or the hooks, so keep heavy tools, such as a long wet mop with a bucket, on the floor. The item weighs 0.44 kg, and the bullets say the included hardware works on most flat wall surfaces, including drywall with anchors.
The finish is white wood with stainless steel clips, which the listing describes as a modern country look. In a laundry room with white cabinets, this piece looks like part of the room rather than an add-on. The bullets say the holder works indoors or outdoors, but the specs list indoor usage, so the safer reading is indoor use.
Installation uses a drilling template, screws and anchors. The listing says the mounting holes are 16 inches apart, so mark the wall with the template before you drill. The listing does not say how high to mount the holder, so choose a height that keeps the handles out of the way of the washer door.
Close alternatives from the same group
The OUTNILI brown version is the closest alternative. It has the same layout and mounting spacing, but its rustic brown finish suits a room with warm wood. If you want shelves instead of a tool holder, the HOOBRO 23.6-inch set is the closest match, because it has the same 22 lb per-shelf statement and a wider display area.
Mistakes to avoid with laundry room decor
The first mistake is hanging a holder or shelf into a stud gap without checking the wall. The HOOBRO listing says to secure screws to studs on hollow walls and avoid installation if studs are not possible, so find the studs before you drill. The second mistake is ignoring the load limit. The HOOBRO shelves state 22 lb per shelf, which is enough for a few bottles and a plant but not for a heavy basket of wet laundry.
The third mistake is buying a bathroom-style shelf for a laundry room without checking the room types. The Tinpin listing names bathroom, bedroom, living room, kitchen and dining room, and it does not name the laundry room, so it is a decor choice rather than a laundry-specific one. The fourth mistake is choosing a size without measuring the clearance. A 23.6-inch shelf needs more width than a 15.7-inch one, and the listing gives the exact sizes so you can mark the wall before you buy.
FAQ
What is the best laundry room decor that also stores things?
A wood broom and mop holder is the most direct answer, because it holds tools off the floor and adds a finish to the wall. The OUTNILI listings give four slots and four hooks each, and they describe rubber roller clips for securing handles. Floating shelves add display space for bottles or plants, and the HOOBRO sets state 22 lb per shelf.
Can I hang these on drywall?
Most listings include anchors or screws for the wall. The OUTNILI listings include anchors and standard screws, and the HOOBRO shelves include an accessory kit with expansion tubes. The HOOBRO listing says to secure screws to studs on hollow walls and avoid installation if that is not possible, so check the wall type before you drill.
How much weight can a floating shelf hold?
The HOOBRO listings state 22 lb per shelf. The Tinpin shelves state a maximum of 44.1 pounds. The OUTNILI broom holders do not state a load figure, so the listing does not state how much weight the slots or hooks can carry.
Are these pieces made for outdoors?
The OUTNILI bullets say the holder can be used indoors or outdoors, but the specs list indoor usage. The other listings do not state an outdoor rating, so the listing does not state that they are suitable outside.
Which length should I pick for a floating shelf?
The HOOBRO sets come in 15.7-inch and 23.6-inch lengths. Pick the 15.7-inch set for a narrow gap between a machine and a wall, and the 23.6-inch set for a wider wall. Both are 7.9 inches deep and 1.5 inches thick according to their listings.
Do I need tools to install a wall shelf?
The HOOBRO listings say the set includes an accessory kit and instructions, and the Tinpin listing includes screws and a manual. The listings do not name the tools needed for mounting, so plan for a drill and a level. The white OUTNILI version includes a drilling template, and the brown version includes an Allen wrench.
Bottom line
For laundry room decor that also works as storage, start with a wood broom and mop holder. Add a floating shelf when you need display space, and pick the length that fits the wall. Check the wall type before you drill, keep weight within the stated limits, and choose the finish that matches the room.
