We have all heard the phrase “spring cleaning”, and there is no better time than now to address the chaos in your garage. Most of us use our garage for more than just parking our cars – storage, tools, workshops, gardening equipment – all these things can quickly lead to disarray.

To help you get your garage in shape for spring, here are 5 easy DIY Hacks for Garage Organization.

  1. DIY Workshop Space

Repurpose old dressers and tabletops into a useable workbench. The drawers offer excellent storage without taking up a lot of room. You can even repurpose hanging cabinets and countertops.

  1. Window Planter Storage

For an inexpensive solution to those cans of paint and bottles of cleaning and outdoor supplies, hang window planters on the wall. The plastic is sturdy enough to offer ample storage, and the easy design is convenient and pleasing to the eye.

  1. Easy Extension Cord Organization

We all have fought with extension cords that get tangled up. Relieve this frustration by hanging rolled extension cords on one-foot sections of thick chain. Then, your cords can easily be hung from a coat hook or rack.

  1. Towel Rod Clamp Organization

To keep your clamps out of the way yet easy to access, hang towel rods on the wall and then hang or clamp your clamps to it. Repurpose old rods from inside your home to save even more money and time.

  1. Golf Bag Tool Storage

Next time you decide to upgrade your golf bag, consider using the old one to store your garden tools and gloves. Rakes, shovels, and trimmers easily fit in the top, and the side pockets are perfect for gloves and hand tools.

JEANNIE THOMPSON, Agent | Long & Foster – Virginia

“The unfurnished townhome we had listed had been on the market for 4 months until we decided to engage in virtual staging.  I had the townhome professionally photographed and then had the photos virtually staged and they were so realistic.  We had a binding contract within 2 weeks after posting the virtual photos!”
