Unfortunately, our weekend was far from relaxing. I don't cause stress real well, hence when an unexpected lawsuit came upward on Sabbatum I speedily became overwhelmed. I've been opened upward nigh my struggles amongst anxiety too Sabbatum was the offset fourth dimension inward a long fourth dimension that I truly felt sick from stress. It doesn't give every bit frequently anymore, but when it hits it's miserable. I abide by that whenever I'm upset or stressed I tend contend past times cleaning too organizing. This weekend, I took my stress out on the garage entrance.

I know, garages aren't the most glamorous spaces too neither is this makeover. It's only an ordinary garage entrance that got a petty update amongst pigment too stain. It's non dramatic or pin-worthy, but it has come upward a long means too I wanted to part how a petty pigment too endeavour tin post away brand a large impact.

Here's what our garage entrance (the door leads to our mudroom) looked liked before.

You similar the molding? It was our neighbors erstwhile flooring molding that nosotros threw upward on the door frame inward enterprise to move past times our lastly inspection. We truly had dissimilar steps to move past times our lastly inspection too. By code yous are required to accept a iii human foot landing BEFORE the offset measuring downward too a railing. We didn't similar how far the steps stuck out into the garage, hence nosotros kept them to move past times our lastly inspection hence altered them inward enterprise to gratis upward space.

I worked on the stairs first, applying 2 coats of Minwax Jacobean stain and a coat of water based poly.

I hence painted the risers too sides of the stairs white. We ended upward having to withdraw the stairs when nosotros coated our garage flooring (more on that unopen to other day), but i time the flooring was done nosotros reinstalled the stairs, installed reduce too painted the door Sherwin-Williams Iron Ore.

We also finally position together the 2 Gladiator shelves that nosotros bought from Sear's to a greater extent than than 2 years ago. They are super sturdy too perfect for maximizing vertical storage. Our garage ceilings are xv feet high making everything facial expression miniature, but the shelves are truly a truly proficient size. I ended upward buying sixteen dark storage totes from Walmart (I bought 8 i calendar week too 8 a few weeks afterward to spread out the expense) too was able to tally 4 across each shelf perfectly.

I created labels using cheap adhesive label pockets too my label maker. (I bought my label sleeves from the Target Dollar topographic point but here are similar ones I found)

It's hence squeamish to finally accept unopen to of my things organized too position away. I yet accept a lot of purging too organizing to do, but I finally experience similar I'm making unopen to headway.
