Consider These DIY Storage Solutions for Your Home

By

Tired of struggling with clutter around your home? We all deal with it eventually, and there’s nothing worse than tripping over seasonal items in the garage. It’s time for some storage solutions, whether you buy something pre-made or DIY a shelving unit yourself. From building tote storage solutions to buying a gun safe on sale at your local home improvement store, here are a few options to consider.


Garage Tool Storage

 Garage tool storage systems offer a variety of options. Whether you want a large, rolling toolbox for working on cars or a cabinet system with a built-in workbench, you can find the right option to fit your needs.

Depending on how many tools you have and what you need to store, you can customize the cabinet system to suit your space and needs. You can get stackable toolboxes in different sizes if you need something more portable. You can carry one or two around the garage or wherever you’re working on your next project.

A Gun Safe for Firearms and Valuables

A gun safe is ideal for holding guns, but also provides other storage. You can get a fireproof gun safe and store important documents, heirloom jewelry, and other small items along with your guns. You can also get different types of safes, like smaller lock boxes for handguns.

If you don’t need a safe, look into concealment shelves or other decorative pieces that hide firearms and items. These make excellent storage solutions that double as decorations.

Tote Storage

Do you store things in plastic totes? Whipping up a DIY solution to store is easy with some basic tools and know-how. Head to your local DIY store, and you can get all the lumber you need to craft a shelving unit or ceiling-mounted rail storage system for your totes.


You can also find ready-to-assemble metal shelves or ceiling storage solutions. These are fairly easy to put together with minimal tools and can help you save space and get your totes out of the way so you can actually use and enjoy your garage. Label the bins, create an inventory list, and store your seasonal decorations and other items away.

4 Things to Check Around the House This Spring

It’s time for spring cleaning, and along with organizing your closets and decluttering the garage, there are a few maintenance tasks to check off your list. Some are just quick checks, while others are essential for keeping your home running smoothly. From inspecting and maintaining electric hot water heaters to replacing fence posts, here are a few things to check around your home this spring. Check Deck Boards for Rot Depending on whether you used deck boards composite vs. fully natural wood, you should check for any rot, insect damage, or cracks that happened over the winter. Composite boards won’t have these problems, as they are a mix of resin and wood and don’t have the drawbacks of wooden boards. If your natural wood deck boards do have damage, you might want to replace them with composite boards. Regardless, spring is an excellent time to check your deck and see how it’s holding up. Be sure to check the top of the deck, underneath, and any handrails for damage. In...

5 Home Upgrades Worth the Investment

While it’s okay to shop on a budget and cut corners for some home improvement projects, others are worth the extra investment. When upgrading things like electric hot water heaters or exterior decks, it’s worth spending a little extra on quality products, materials, and supplies so you can enjoy a more comfortable, efficient, and safer home. From more hot water on demand to a deck that holds up to Mother Nature, consider investing in these home upgrades. A Better Water Heater If you’re in the market for a new water heater, consider going with a premium option. An electric water heater with a large tank ensures you can take a bath while running the dishwasher, or not worry about family members who all want to take a hot shower on a cold day. Make sure you buy a size that fits your family’s needs, and consider going with a tankless install if you want a more efficient unit with hot water on demand. A Durable Composite Deck Another improvement that is worth the investmen...
