DIY Network: Power Organization

June 21, 2012

You know how much we like getting our tool organization on. It’s kind of our thing. Having a clean space makes projects more efficient, not to mention safer, so after making over our entire garage last month, the pressure was on to get the shed in the backyard in shape just the same so that we could once again access essentials, like the lawn mower and gardening snips.

Everyone has their own obstacles to deal with when organizing a small storage space, but I think the results of our 100 sq. ft. shed organization project go to show that it a little bit can go a long way (and in a way, it gives us permission to buy more tools since there really is room to store them… high five).

Check out the entire tale in this week’s post on DIY Network. I think you’ll find a few good storage nuggets in there.

Getting my shed organization on this week for DIY Network!

P.S. Those are the Popeye forearms I referred to yesterday. Zoink.

    The biggest learning from my first year of pumpkin The biggest learning from my first year of pumpkin farming: no need to start seeds weeks in advance. These sprouted in 3 days indoors, and I was able to easily move them to the farm with minimal disturbance before they outgrew their tiny little upcycled egg carton pods. The seedlings I started in April in larger containers were very lanky at transplant and do not seem as hearty. They THRIVE when transplanted at this size! 📓 #gardennotes #garden2023 #pumpkinfarming #gourdfarming
