Finished the Garage!

We finished the garage yesterday. All told it took two of us about 5 hours, and we did it without having to buy any organizing products - my specialty. We just used what we had on hand to organize. One item that really helped was a tall rectangular wooden box in which we stored rakes, brooms, and other things that had long skinny handles. We had originally thought we would need to mount all these on the wall, but our one box solved that problem. We got our box in Kenya - it was given to us as a goodbye gift by our friends who worked in the tea company and it was filled with the most wonderful tea in the world! But I digress. Any tallish, sturdy box could do the job.
