Garage - Before and Afters

Four years ago when we moved from a much smaller house (that had a big shed and attic space) to a larger house (with a little tiny shed and no attic space) we just dumped everything in the garage. As we have done more and more house projects it has progressively gotten worse.  Here is what it looked like: 


For years we have been meaning to clean up the garage and organize it better and throw away anything that we don't need for projects anymore. This is in hopes of starting a mudroom in some of the garage space in the next few years. 

1. Take a load of trash to the dump (expired carseats, doors that we have removed, old paint and light bulbs that the previous owner left us...etc.). 

2. Move all the Christmas stuff to the weird closet space.

3. Build a workbench and mount old kitchen cabinets to the wall. 

The after pictures: 

We still need to scrap the rest of the old flooring off the floor.  

My outside plants winter in the garage. 


But just look at all that space! And it is so easy to find things now. It almost makes me want to start a new house project.
