My husband is a very tidy and organized person. I’m just okay. But he’s teaching me to fall in love with the peace and beauty of an organized space. He once asked why I don’t go outside and weed or help in the garage. I responded, “I never finish what needs to be done inside, why would I venture outside?” And then just sometimes if I’m in the mood to tease him, I will say “Besides…outside work is a man’s work.” I totally say this in jest, but I get a smirk (and rolling of the eyes) everytime!
So I thought with Father’s Day coming up, I would surprise him by showing more interest in the garage and garden. What was my first step? I headed to Target and bought a Rubbermaid FastTrack to start organizing the garage (The Rubbermaid FastTrack 5 piece Kit is on sale for $28.89 (reg. $33.99) from May 18,2014 to May 24, 2014). I was a little hesitant to buy it without telling my husband since he is so darn particular about everything, but he loves it!
What I loved most about the FastTrack is that it makes garage organization REALLY EASY because installation is simple, and because there are attachements you can buy for hanging virtually everything in your garage!
Just find your stud…
Screw in the base….
Pop On Your Attachments…
And there you have it! Super easy garage organization in 15 minutes or less!

Oh how I wish my husband cared about the organization of our garage! I too joke with him about outside stuff being man’s work — maybe that’s why the garage looks like it does! lol Going to have to mention this to him because our stuff really needs to be organized!
