• Nov. 1, 2007 - ~Garage Storage Tips Needed!~

Posted in This N That

As an Organization Junkie, I have to admit that sites like this full of amazing garage storage  ideas make me drool. How about you?

 

Unfortunately, our garage is an absolute disaster! My husband tends to be a packrat and "hides" everything in the garage. When I do have need to say, find a tool, it's downright scary. I'm wondering if we actually purchased something like the above if it would be impressive enough that he would want to keep the garage clean? Somehow, I don't think so.

 

Our elderly neighbor puts my organizing skills to shame. He's ex-military and UNBELIEVABLY organized. Sometimes, I like to just go over to his house and look around in awe. You'd have to look pretty hard to find anything without a label on it. His workshop even has little vacuums hooked to each of his saws so the dust is immediately sucked up!! Amazing.

 

So, what about it? Any tips for keeping the garage neat and tidy? (I'd post a picture but I'm too embarassed)

No tips really. If hubby is a packrat then he'd surely get upset at my initial reaction-- toss it ALL! Well, almost all of it.

Have you ever seen Family Handyman magazine? They have great tips on organizing and storing things-- and for cheap, too. This is my husband's fav magazine. I like it as well since it has really useful ideas every single month.
