Is your garage cluttered and overwhelming? Has it become a dumping ground for anything that doesn't have a home anywhere else?
Now, be honest, do you avoid organizing your garage because you can't afford those fancy garage organizers you see on Pinterest and in magazines?
There are some mighty beautiful garages out there. I'm happy for those people who have them. But most of us have plain ole' ordinary garages. Sure, we can do some things to pretty them up, but they're still not going to be magazine worthy. But they don't need to be beautiful. We don't live in our garages. We store things in them. And hopefully have space to park a vehicle in them. If we have limited funds for organizing, more often than not we'd rather spend those dollars inside our homes, where we spend more time.
Having a "real life" garage doesn't mean it has to be unorganized though! I've got about as ugly a garage as you can get... you'll see in the pictures. But I do my best to keep it organized. And I just use basic stuff to do it.

Happy organizing!
