Building a workbench and organizing the garage

Justin built a pretty sweet workbench for the garage and while he was at it he cleaned and organized everything! I love him, okay I guess I will marry him.  This is what the garage looked like before…

These pictures are what it looked like after just moving in almost two months ago.  Here is the other side…

And in the back of the garage…

And after a good cleaning, building some kayak racks, a work bench and organizing things this is what we have…

He moved the tool organizer that holds our rakes, shovels, etc. to the other wall next to the kayak racks.

Looks much better.  And on the other side of the garage…

Oh ya! That’s the new workbench!

He started by building the frame, then adding the shelves and then the peg board.  This kit with the peg board and hooks was like $15, what a bargain.  You can move all of the pegs around and organize your tools anyway you want.  They just pop into the wholes on the board and then there are little black pieces that snap in over the hooks to secure them.  Seriously go get a peg board for your garage/work area, you wont be disappointed.

Pretty much the coolest thing ever.  I want peg boards everywhere!

Underneath, extra tools and coal for the grill.  As you may have noticed from a previous photo there is also a new shelf that Justin got from Lowe’s.

Which is now being used as our shoe rack.  Is it sad that Justin has fancier shoes than me?  He also built a rack for his hockey sticks.

I think he may like storing and organizing as much as me.  Now I get excited when the garage door opens and I get to see all of this sick organization!

Oh and here is a full view of the garage…
