Tool Shed Makeover {#3M DIY}

Do you remember the exterior makeover I did on my shed last year with 3M DIY?

I LOVED that project.  That shed was such an eye sore on our property and now it is so pretty to look at.

But the interior was still a mess!

So I was so glad to work with 3M DIY again to give the inside of my shed a little makeover.

I have big plans for the interior, but I am working on just one wall at a time right now.

There are three main walls in my shed, and I am going to use one for my yard tools, one for my work tools, and one for the boys sports equipment.

I decided to make the first wall you see on the left my “yard tool wall.”

Materials I used:

Scotch® Extreme Mounting Tape

PVC Pipe

Scotch™ Garage Organizer

Scotch™ Secure Strap

Scotch™ Indoor  Fasteners

To create my yard tool holders, I used some PVC pipe and some Scotch® Extreme Mounting Tape.

I cut some PVC pipe in about 4 inch pieces with my chop saw. The saw threw bits of plastic all over the place when I cut it, even in my hair, so I made sure I had my 3M safety product {safety glasses} on.

I’ve used many different safety glasses since I started blogging, and I have to admit that these are my favorite.  They are very heavy duty and comfortable on my nose!

To make my yard tool holder, I attached  two 1×6 pieces of wood to the studs in the shed with my screw driver and long screws.

I laid my tools out to see how far I wanted them to be apart.

Then I applied some of the 3M mounting tape to the backs of the PVC pieces…

Next, I removed the red piece of liner off of the mounting tape and attached them to the wood.

Those babies were stuck on there good!    I tried to immediately pull the PVC pipe off the wood to test the strength, and I couldn’t do it.  Yay!

Next, I added a small piece of 1×6 wood to the top of the wall and attached a Scotch™ Garage Organizer to it.

The Scotch™ Garage Organizer holds up to 20 pounds, so I used it to hold our water hose.

It was simple to wrap the fastener strap around my hose to hold it in place.  I love that it is up high and out of the way.

I used the two Scotch™ Secure Straps to hold our lawn and leaf bags.  All I had to do was wrap the straps around the back of the 1×6 and then around the garbage bag box, and secure it with the fasteners.

We go through a lot of garbage bags in the summer, and it will be easy to replace the old boxes with a new box by using these secure straps.

I bought a new pair of clippers and decided to use my Scotch™ Indoor Fasteners to attach them to the wood.

I put the soft part of the fastener on my clippers so it wouldn’t bother my fingers when I used it.

Then I put the other part of the fastener on the wood and attached my clippers.

Perfect!

I used some of my Scotch® Extreme Mounting Tape on the back of a small basket that I had in storage.

I attached it to the wood and put my gardening gloves and trimmer string.

I love how organized I am getting in my shed!

Now I am excited about tackling the other two walls in my shed!
