| Use Pill Bottles To Store Seasonal Hardware
|
|
When putting away seasonal things that contain loose screws, bolts, etc., take an empty safety capped pill bottle to store them in, label and then select a drawer or empty tool box/container to keep them in. You will always know where they are.

| Stop Light For Garage
|
|
This tip is for people like myself that runs into the wall of the garage. I've tried the tennis ball thing and didn't work for me. So, my husband bought this "traffic light" looking wall unit that plugs into the wall. It looks just like a traffic light that has "red on top", "yellow in middle" and "green on the bottom".

| Wooden Bikerack
|
I made a simple but useful 2 bikeracks out of a 2X4 and some screws (it helps to have a miter saw). I made an L bracket out of the 2X4 and secured it to a stud in the garage.

| Use a Dresser to Organize Your Garage!
|
|
By Tawra Kellam

|
It seems like organizing your garage can be a never ending task. Lots of companies make millions of dollars selling all kinds of storage systems to try to make your garage just a little bit more organized. OK I'm about to confess -- We've had this problem, too! I know, it's hard to believe, isn't it?

| Storing Extension Cords
|
|
I have several very long extension cords for my hedge clipper and other outdoor tools. Any ThriftyFun ideas for keeping them unsnarled when stored, but easy to unwind for use?

| Reusing Kitchen Cabinets in the Garage
|
|
Instead of spending hundreds on garage organization, I got kitchen cabinets from someone who was updating on freecycle, painted them white to match my garage and lined them up against the walls which already had built in cabinets by previous owner. . .

In my outdoor sink and in my laundryroom sink I glued a dollor store fingernail cleaning brush on the top inside edge with silicon. It never gets lost and it's easier to use.

| Using Clear Plastic Jars
|
|
Use clear plastic peanut butter or other food containers for small craft items like glue sticks, buttons, beads, etc. or use them in the garage for screws, nails and other small hardware!
