Now for an update on my garage/workshop:
Remember THIS is what I started with:
After about 20 hours of work, you can actually see the floor!! It may not look like a lot of progress, but I weeded through THOUSANDS of pounds of clutter.
One of my biggest accomplishments so far is also getting all the Christmas decorations (along with leftover Halloween and Fall decorations) sorted, boxed and put away:
I also got a large space in front of my workshop cleared out. I sorted hundreds of cans of paint and went through a lot of my tools and supplies. Again, it doesn’t look like a lot, but just being able to stand in front of workbench without stepping over stuff was amazing. I also sucked up TONS of sawdust which was covering everything.
This is my large untacked pile. It includes my scroll saw, router table, all the kids bikes plus the trash cans, and a bunch of furniture I had plans to makeover. I am FAR from finished.
