This Is My dream garage Set-Up
Our current house has a garage and thank goodness for that because when we were living in Maryland our house had no garage which totally stunk because we had ZERO storage space.
Our garage for the most part is used for storage but I keep it extremely neat and clean because I do use it as a work area and it’s a place where I store all of my tools but is also serves as a place to store the kids’ games, bikes and excess toys.
Last summer Melinda and I total revamped our garage and lines both walls with shelving so that we could utilize every inch of space which was a good thing. Like I mentioned before the kids have a TON of toys so the shelving allowed us to store things like puzzles, board games and toys that the kids like to use outdoors. We also have about 5 bikes so I utilize hooks in the ceiling which works out really nice so that they aren’t taking up a lot of floors space. I do need to be careful and unfortunately I am not able to use the entire ceiling for bike storage due to the overhead door of the garage but otherwise I use most of the ceiling as bike storage.
I do wish at times that I was able to park my car in the garage but with only having a single car garage that isn’t going to happen. Maybe if we had a two car garage I would be able to but I have a feeling I would just use it for more storage anyways and then I would have twice as much space to keep neat and clean but on the other hand I would have twice and much space for tools, toys and bikes. LOL. I am not sure that is the right way to think about it but that is how my mind works.
Do you have a garage? Do you actually use it to park your car or do you use it for storage?
