Re: Garage storage, mudroom, and D.I.Y. ...

onecoastalhome

Our daily life entry way into the house is the garage. Anyone else find that it's always the case? Dreaming and creating a space where we can sit down, pop our shoes on, storage for miles so we don't have to trip over shoes again. And a little crafty DIY space for myself too. After completing this project, I feel a sense of a peaceful welcome home every time we drive into the garage. So happy with how our small project turned out.
