Fall is here and it's almost time to put your tools and outdoor playthings away for the Winter. It is also the perfect time to organize those things in preparation for Spring.
Take advantage of their non-use by paying special attention to how you store them. Update your storage spaces so everything you will use in the coming year will be easily accessible, clean, and ready for that new project.
Here are a few things that can upgrade your shed or garage without spending a lot of time or money:
HOOKS
There are hooks for just about everything from bikes to tools. They offer countless opportunities for saving time and freeing up floor space.
DRAWERS
If you have really small items like screws, tape measures, or manuals, drawers are perfect for storage. Tool chests fall into this category as well with dividers for optimal organizing. There are a variety of sizes to choose from and some are even on wheels for conveniently moving them to where you are working.
CONTAINERS AND TOTES
Containers and Totes are inexpensive and handy ways for storing outdoor toys, sneakers, planters, and the list goes on. The ability to stack is a plus and being clear is a must for identifying what you have.
