Living in New England is incredible, especially if you love experiencing four distinct seasons throughout the year! From the warm summer heat to the snow-blanketed winters, the changing weather allows us to enjoy many different outdoor activities! On the flip side, those seasonal activities and changes to the weather also bring along rain, snow, leaves, and other outdoor messes that creep their way into your home. Learn how to protect your home and belongings with this four-season garage guide!
For most households, the garage is a hodge-podge of items that don’t have a spot inside the home. Usually, these items consist of yard supplies, sports gear, cleaning products, and other miscellaneous items. Over time, all that clutter can build up, making it hard to manage and protect your belongings. We have seen our fair share of garages with storage piles, and it’s more common than you might think! Maintain order in your space and avoid random piles with a custom-built storage solution!
What is the first thing you think of when we say winter in New England? For us, it’s the snow! We are an avid outdoor team, so the incoming snow means a day on the slopes, which can’t come soon enough. If you are also an avid skier or rider, think about installing a wall-mounted storage track in your garage! Not only do mounted tracks provide easy access to help you catch that first run on the slopes, but they also help you air-dry your gear after a long day out! Wall mounts are also a great space-saving way to store your bicycles until the following riding season.
Fall is an excellent time of year to purge your garage space! Once you have wrapped up any garage projects and outdoor activities slow down, it is time to pack up your summer gear and put them into storage! Wire baskets are an excellent way to tidy up your sports equipment, pool supplies, and all other loose items that are hard to store on a shelf. You will also find it much easier to clear out those pesky leaves from your garage once your belongings are elevated and not out in the open!
We all know that keeping our homes tidy is important, but did you know that it can actually improve your mental health? That’s right, maintaining a clean and well-organized home has been proven to reduce stress and anxiety. In fact, research shows that 63% of Americans find home reorganization to be a huge de-stressor.
Welcome to our 90-Day Home Organization Challenge! We have created this interactive guide to help you through the complexities of maintaining a clean and well-organized home! Each week we will focus on a different area within your home and provide tips to help you thoroughly declutter and cleanse your living space.
As 2022 ends, it’s a great time to reflect on the past year! Did you accomplish your home goals this year? Building the perfect home is often a journey taken piece by piece, so if you are behind on your goals, don’t fret! You still have plenty of time to create the home you dream of living in!
