Project Garage Declutter

Mission: Organization : Episode MSO-101 -- More Projects » (Continued from Page 1)
Janice Simonsen works with the Longleys on a plan to divide the basement into six sections--a kids' corner, a workstation for arts and crafts, a storage space for seasonal items, an exercise area, a music area for Bob to play his sax, and an overflow pantry area.

The garage is also to be divided into sections--sporting equipment, gardening equipment and tools. Here are the results:

Shelf designer Lloyd Harrison and his team installed a hang wall system in the garage, a workbench, more shelves and cabinetry to provide space and separate everything by category.

Shelving was also added to accommodate the family's sports equipment. Now, each type of equipment has its own basket or bracket. This type of system is designed to make it easy to keep it organized and neat.

The arts-and-crafts zone of the basement includes a workstation with table and a room divider to conceal items that still need to be sorted.

Zone 3 boasts storage space for seasonal items as well as an overflow rack for seasonal clothes.
