I've got 3 hobbies going in the last couple of gears and got stuff all over the house. What do you guys do to keep it organizecd and readilyy accesable?
I've got 3 atv's for the family So 4 helmets along with riding gear, Chest protectors pants jersies golves etc
One hunting (bird) dog along with his training gear, collars training dummies, extra water and food dishees for when we go away, different leads, e collar and transmitter, whistle, etc
And now my hunting stuff which I am just starting to accumulate. Upland vest, boots, orange hat clothes, gloves. jacket pants etc
Plus I've got all my work clothes for working on the truck, house construction jobs and other dirty things.
What the heck do I do with it all so that I can access it easy? Right now all my clothes regardless of what they are for are in my closests and drawers. the dog and hunting stuff is piled in a corner of my office. the atv stuff is all over, my truck, two garages and basement. It drives me nuts. i also have my camera and video equipment and various electronics piled in my office as well. I need to remodel my basement or at least file for the permit before 12/31 because the original owner never filed a permit when they re did it and the building inspector found out when he checked the house to give me a CO for the addition I did. I could use this opportunity to put in a gear room but really can't picture in my head what to build to neatly store all the different items. Anybody else have similar stuff and have it organized? a couple of pictures would be great. I have never been good at visualizing stuff in my head. Right now when you walk into my house (basement off the driveway. you enter an over crowded laundry room I am thinking of enlarging the room and putting in closets and and cabinets. This way I can get all the winter coats and stuff down stairs as well which would free up an over flowing up stairs closet. Thanks in advance
basement ceiling height is only 7' +-
