Basement Declutter and Organization: Progress Report

 Hey Y'all!

First, a reminder of where we started:

https://craftinwifescreations.blogspot.com/2023/02/basement-plans-current-pictures.html

We worked on the basement one full weekend, and overdid it a bit, so we took the next weekend off.

So far the "basement" side is 99% of the way there, and we haven't touched the "downstairs" side yet. (We'll be starting there this weekend.)

Here's a bit of our progress in pictures:

Testing station, windows unblocked, storage for ebay, etc.

The metal garage shelving racks from Sam's Club (still in boxes here). Surprisingly easy to put together!

...Also doing laundry.

In front of the garage door is all trash, then making a bigger mess to organize. Fun times!

Storage section 2!

These racks are what we had, and they do not hold up well, one of them collapsed and fell in the pool just before Fall. Plus we didn't have enough to go around the room.

I haven't taken any pictures of the progress since the first day. I feel like we accomplished a lot- got the tool box, and freezer moved, the storage solutions for this side all built & figured out, the testing area, and shipping station set up, and the desk cleared off. We still have to build a unit for our personal storage (holiday items, seasonal storage, and such). However that will go on the other side, against the wall next to the door.

That other side is the bigger project,  much more there that really has to be gone through, sorted, etc.  

We're more than ready to get the entire basement back in order though, and excited to really use the space again!

Have a great day,

Craftin' Wife
