An Organized Garage

Have you heard that old adage, "out of sight out of mind?"  Well, that is the way our garage is for us. Only occasionally do I go out there and its more of 'open door.... throw... shut the door FAST!'  But I have learned that if you want to have a yard sale.... You have to have a place for all your sale items... thats where a garage would come in handy.  Or if you'd like your crafty husband to build you something.... He's going to need a work area and the living room is NOT acceptable.  And yes, I know this from experience.

So having the WHH home for an extended weekend we thought it'd be a great time to spend some quality time together... err... clean things up a bit.
We started with this....... Pulled a few things out and decided that we would end up with the same look, just without leaves and saw dust if we didn't get some totes... So Off we went and spent $40 on 8 totes (didn't use all of them... yet)






Over there somewhere is a huge work bench.... I know its there because about 2 years ago I used it to fix an earring. :~)





 I'm just not sure where all this came from.... or how it got there....






......after day one the work bench was an actual work bench!  Its so clean that you could eat off it... not really just another adage.








And by the end of Day 2..... if we wanted we could get one vehicle and the bike in the garage. Its not completely finished and won't be until that yard sale takes place.... hopefully in about two weeks.
And we both love the garage now. 
So I challenge you This fall pick one
 "out of sight out of mind?" 
area in your home and organize it, you'll be glad that you did!
Then tell me about it.

Until Next Time,

Amy
