Hey guys! I’m back with an update on our storage room. Missed Part 1? You can check it out here.

Here’s where we stand today, after all of the cleaning and such.

When we moved in, the wall above had only one small piece of pegboard and some between the studs shelving “bins”. Neither were very sturdy or functional for our needs so we decided to upgrade! We bought all of our materials from Lowes since it’s literally 5 minutes from the house. I had hubby take measurements (I can totally take measurements, I just hate that creepy room remember? 😉 ) of the walls, making sure we cut around the air vent and some pipes that we can’t cover and we had Lowes cut the pegboard to the dimensions we wanted. We still have one little notch to cut out to fit around a pipe in the ceiling, but we can do that with a hand saw and then HOORAY! total wall o’pegboard. How awesome is that?

If you recall when I redid our laundry closet last summer, I painted the floors with concrete paint. Super easy (and a tutorial coming soon!), but you can only buy concrete paint in full gallons, so I had plenty left over. We decided to use some of it to spiff up (and clean up) the look of the concrete floor in the storage room as well. This time hubby grabbed the roller. It’s a color that will coordinate with the other paint colors we’ve chosen for our total basement re-do. More on that coming soon as well. 
So, what do you think so far? This weekend I’m going to start tackling the more fun bits – gathering up and organizing all of our tools and paint supplies. Hopefully, this will make working on the rest of the house go a bit more smoothly. And trust me, there’s a lot more that this house needs! 
Happy Saturday everyone!
