I love it, because we can get in and out of the house without having to go outside and freeze in the winter or get wet in the rain. I want to fix up the garage and make it pretty, but the floors are constantly staining from the tires and car leakages...especially when it rains and we pull the wet car into the garage. Any tips on how to stop the car from ruining the floors?Shannonhttp://www.partyingwiththeprincesses.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864666002840991252.post-67421783731319750512012-03-17T08:36:05.031-05:002012-03-17T08:36:05.031-05:00Love the stairs!

We are in the middle of selling our home, and are trying to figure out a way to organize our garden stuff without putting it into the garage. Technically, we are not suppose to have a shed in the back yard, but there are some in the neighborhood that have a shorter type shed for the lawn stuff. Thing thing is, I really don't know these people well enough to go trudging into their yard and start asking questions. Anyway, any easy inexpensive ideas would be great; easy as in I can do them, as dh is already at the new job, and not sure when he will be back down....ugggtappingflamingohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16748978166970257874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864666002840991252.post-69202345881520976842012-03-16T22:49:10.215-05:002012-03-16T22:49:10.215-05:00I'm a midwestern girl myself (Minnesota) and a...I'm a midwestern girl myself (Minnesota) and also don't have any sort of mudroom. I've thought of creating a space in our attached garage, but was worried that the kids boots and coats (OK and mine too, I'm kind of a freeze baby) would be too cold and uncomfortable in the winter. We do hang our umbrellas in the garage when it rains. Are you thinking of heating your garage? Are you and your boys made of tougher midwestern genes? Another plan for handling the cold? <br /><br />Thanks for sharing your genius! I brag about your blog all the time and think everyone in my family now owns your family binder! <br /><br />Peace, RachelAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864666002840991252.post-39475899874042804462012-03-16T19:42:12.327-05:002012-03-16T19:42:12.327-05:00Please keep us updated on your storage unit/cubbie...Please keep us updated on your storage unit/cubbies. We do not use the garage to park our cars (as it is only 1 car and we have too much stuff in it anyway), but I use it as the entrance to my house. I need something like this for the kids stuff. It would be so much more convenient than lugging all of their bags and coats through the house to the coat closet in the hallway.Ashleynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864666002840991252.post-30498453288798898492012-03-16T16:50:40.661-05:002012-03-16T16:50:40.661-05:00If you're updating your pegboard, you might tr...If you're updating your pegboard, you might try tracing the outline of your tools when they're hung up and then painting those shapes in as a contrasting color. My father-in-law did this for us and it's such a neat look. Plus, when you see the "shadows" left behind, it's very easy to know exactly where to hang your tools back up.Karylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03426150199714370491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864666002840991252.post-17815634142449698702012-03-16T16:07:54.722-05:002012-03-16T16:07:54.722-05:00We've got garage spring cleaning on the brain ...We've got garage spring cleaning on the brain too! So many possibilities! I'm getting my hubby to collect cardboard boxes from work and plan on spray painting them all the same colour, labeling them and using them for organizing. Almost free and will look loads better than the mismatched plastic bins in their now (which are cracking anyways).

Our master closet used to be the porch of our house. But the people who built it out didn't insulate it. So every winter I loose my nice big walk in closet and my hubby and I cram everything into a little 1920's standard shoe box...errr...closet. I have been promised by the hubs and his dad that this was the last winter for cramming. And that means *drum roll please* new organizing in my closet! A happy dance is required every time I think about that. :)Debrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04335926922556000741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864666002840991252.post-19321018019553646212012-03-16T15:51:25.279-05:002012-03-16T15:51:25.279-05:00I wish I had a garage...

I want to fix the play structure and build a fence for my vegetable garden (last year I struggled with bunnies and deer). I'm also dreaming of a patio or deck and something vertical to help the back of our house look some sort of pretty. Oh and we have bushes in the front to take out and I'm dying to plant roses there. <br /><br />DH asked if I'd rather the yard or the basement. Definitely the yard!
