blank slate garage organization

23rd October 2019

I loved this garage organization project! It was a fabulous blank slate with fresh clean walls that, at times, I was afraid of scuffing:) The solution to bringing order to this space was to think vertically. We hung Rubbermaid Fast Track systems on one side of the garage to create floor to ceiling, front to back hanging space. This track system is so functional and easy to use because the accessory hooks can clip anywhere along the track so essentially your wall storage can change and adapt through the years and as your needs change.

On the other side of the garage there was a inset of the wall with symmetrical space on each side of a window. We found a workbench that fit perfectly and we added a black metal peg board for extra wall storage. On the right side of the window we found a coordinating floor cabinet. To organize the inside we used stackable bins to maximize the deep shelves and keep items categorized.

In the extra space between the garage doors we added a tall industrial shelving unit to hold larger miscellaneous items like pet gear, lightbulbs, gardening supplies etc. This is also a great space for transitioning boxes that are going home with older kids or return/donation boxes. In this area, we used weather tight storage boxes so dirt and bugs will stay out.

I know it’s a little strange to say a garage looks beautiful, but with all the coordinating materials and finishes, this project is functional and looks great too.
