When to Avoid Garage Sales

Yesterday I started cleaning up from Christmas. I found an ornament stacking bin that I no longer needed. I knew someone would want it the day after Christmas, so I grabbed my phone, snapped a picture, posted it in about a minute … and it was picked up off my front porch within an hour. […]

Donation Station #2

I just looked. It was 2013 when I first shared about putting a donation station in the garage. In that post I talked a lot about tracking donation for tax write-offs (and I shared a free printable). My focus today is why have a donation station at all?! I’ll tell you why: a designated place […]

Garage Progress

For being one of my least favorite rooms, I’ve actually shared a lot about our garages over the years. As a professional organizer, it was one of the most frequently requested jobs (probably the 4th most requested space). At some point, I just had to face the facts and deal with our garage. To get […]

From Grass to Shed in ONE DAY

We put this shed in last fall, but I lost so much time in the past year to depression, that I’m just showing you now. Spring may seem like the obvious time to put in a shed (and really that’s fine too), but I think fall is a great time because you’re about to store […]

Tidy Up the Garage (Love Home Challenge)

Chances are, there are a million things you want to do in your garage. I hear you! But still, you need to think through the list of what you want to do and then pick a few things to work on now. It’s okay if your garage isn’t perfect at the end of this. There’s […]

My Epoxy Garage Floor

This is not a “HOW TO” because I actually paid someone to do this before we moved into our new house. I do not regret paying someone, moving is a crazy enough time, I can’t imagine adding the need to “do it all myself” – yikes. There is a big difference between garage floor paint […]

Organize Your Garage: ONE WEEK All About The Garage!

This is the same challenge as originally posted on May 16, 2016. I will be literally PACKING my garage this week and getting ready to live in temporary housing for 4-5 months while our house is built. I think if you want to get your garage organized, this is still a great challenge to do […]

Moving In: How To Clean & Prep The Garage

You learned in May that I think garages are very important. When you move, the garage becomes an important area to stage and store things as you put your home inside together. The garage is the first and the last place I suggest worrying about when you are moving. This is how I suggest approaching the garage […]

How To KEEP Your Garage Organized

I have a friend that taught me a new term. She was telling me about her garage-organizing troubles and so I asked if she wanted any advice or help getting her garage in order. (She is a good friend – I don’t throw that offer around lightly!) She said “Oh no, we’re just messy garage […]

My Re-Organized Garage REVEAL

Funny story. I showed Matt my post earlier this week where I said: “This week I am going to be showing you how I recently re-organized my garage and I am happy to say that it is finally how I want it. Just like many of you, I have to compromise with someone else who lives […]
