Start with an Outline garage organization "Honey, where's the hammer/measuring tape/nails/pliers/level/screwdriver?" Have you heard this question before, or a variation of it? Here's a cool tip from MarthaStewart.com. Hang your tools on a wall or pegboard. Then outline each tool with a permanent marketer. Afterwards you'll aways know where to put it back, and no more time will be wasted looking for lost tools. But what about the smaller items? Superglue the lids from old glass jars onto a wooden shelf. Place small items like nails, nuts, bolts, etc. into the jars and screw the them onto the superglued lids.
