Organization Mistakes You’re Probably Making

Having an organized home creates a sense of peace and may even improve your mental health. That’s because when things are tidy, we feel less stressed and anxious, sleep better, and are able to better focus on other areas of our lives. Yet as beneficial as organization is, it’s also sometimes challenging, especially if you haven’t developed a routine.  Here are some common organization mistakes you’re probably making (and how to fix them).

Creating Stacks

Stacks look better than piles, right? Well, not much. If you’re in the habit of creating stacks of items around your home, you’re contributing to it looking cluttered instead of organized. It’s easy to create stacks of mail on the counter, stacks of papers on your desk, or stacks of laundry on the table, but that doesn’t really get rid of the clutter or help your home feel more organized.

Instead, set aside time every day to file your papers and put laundry away. That way, the stacks don’t become overwhelming. And consider storage options that make staying organized easier. Try adding cabinets and folding areas to your laundry room, installing a new shelf, or adding custom storage to your closet to hold the items that are currently stacked around your home.

Inconvenient Storage

When we choose storage areas that are inconvenient for us, we’re less likely to use them. For example, if you keep all your cleaning supplies in one downstairs closet, it’s less likely you’ll want to do all the extra walking to return them to their place. This results in cleaning supplies left strewn around your home. Some people also inadvertently create disorganization by trying to keep everything out of sight. Haphazardly packing your cabinets and closets makes it difficult to see what you have, so items may be forgotten and repurchased.

Instead, think about convenience when it comes to storage. In the case of cleaning supplies, store needed appliances and cleaning supplies near where they will be used. For example, keep bathroom cleaner in the bathroom. And instead of shoving everything into closets and cabinets, keep frequently used items like coffee makers on the counter and consider open storage for things like coffee mugs and frequently used dishes. Save your cabinet space for items like food storage containers and infrequently used specialty appliances.

Keeping Too Much

Many of us are guilty of keeping too much. Maybe it’s a junk drawer in the kitchen filled with random parts to things you’ve long-since forgotten. Perhaps it’s a rack of outdated or too-small clothes you’re hoping to wear again one day. Or maybe you have boxes of items you thought you would use but never really have. Whatever the case, it’s not uncommon to have unused items taking up space in our homes.

A good rule of thumb to follow is getting rid of anything you haven’t used at least once a year. So keep things like Christmas decorations, but consider letting go of those pairs of jeans you haven’t worn since 2010. It’s fine to keep sentimental items, but in general, aim to sell, donate, or throw away anything that has outlived its usefulness. Decluttering your home immediately helps it look more organized and gives you more space for the things you do use.

Not Enough Storage

Finally, not having enough storage is a big mistake many people make. It’s hard to keep even a modest number of possessions organized if you lack cabinet space, have only single-rod closets, and don’t have adequate shelving. Unfortunately, not having enough storage space forces you either to go with a very minimalist aesthetic or deal with cluttered surfaces.

Instead, invest in custom storage. That way, you have space for everything you need. And because custom cabinets are built to fit your home, there’s no wasted space that could otherwise be functional. If you’ve been living with stacks of items all over your home, it’s time to get organized. Contact us today to see how custom storage can help.

Stock Vs. Custom Cabinets: Explained

Shopping for cabinets can be confusing, especially if this is your first time. You’ll need to begin by deciding whether you want stock, semi-custom, or custom cabinets. But how do you know which is right for you? Here are the differences and benefits of stock cabinets versus custom cabinets.

Stock Cabinets

Stock cabinets are standard-sized cabinets. You should be aware when shopping for cabinets that in many cases, the term “stock cabinets” refers to mass-produced, pre-made cabinets. Unfortunately, they’re often made of particleboard or plywood covered in veneer. These are what you’ll find preinstalled in many homes. Here at Edgewood Cabinetry, however, our stock cabinets are simply standard-sized, all-wood cabinets. You’ll get quality all-wood construction, soft-close hardware, a designed layout, and professional installation. So if you’re in the market for stock cabinets, pay attention to materials when you compare prices. Stock cabinets vary greatly between cheap particleboard that isn’t designed to last, and beautiful, solidly built all-wood cabinets.

There are several benefits to choosing stock cabinets. First, stock cabinets are the cheapest option. Since they are all standard sizes and don’t include custom accessories, they can be built faster and at a lower price point. And because of the faster construction process, they’re also the fastest to install. If speed and budget are priorities for you, stock cabinets are a good way to go.

Semi-Custom Cabinets

Semi-custom cabinets offer an option between fully stock and fully custom cabinets. Like stock cabinets, semi-custom cabinets come in standard sizes, which lowers the price point compared to custom cabinets. But unlike stock cabinets, you have the option to add custom accents and accessories. Many people find semi-custom cabinets to be a good compromise. You can add the custom features you really want while working within the confines of standard cabinet sizes.

When you choose semi-custom cabinets from Edgewood Cabinetry, you’ll get the same standard-size all wood cabinets, soft-close hardware, designed layout, and professional installation offered with our stock cabinets.  But you also have the option to modify your cabinets with the accents and accessories of your choice. For example, you can choose different hardware. Or add accessories like draw inserts, slide-out shelves, and small appliance storage. Semi-custom cabinets are a great choice if you don’t want the expense of fully-customized cabinets but still want to add a few custom accessories.

Custom Cabinets

Custom cabinets offer a whole new realm of possibilities. You aren’t hampered by standard size limitations, so customize as much or as little as you like! One of the greatest benefits of custom cabinets is they can be built to fit your space. If you lack adequate storage, custom-built cabinets can transform even small spaces to give you more storage than you ever thought possible. Plus, you have a wide range of options and accessories. Add spice racks to your kitchen cabinets. Include a pull-out hamper in your bathroom vanity. Or create a shoe washing station in your mudroom.

Furthermore, since you choose every detail of your new cabinets, you receive one-of-a kind cabinets that are truly unique. Show off your elegance with decorative molding and embellishments. Or focus on function by adding more storage space to your bathroom with a custom-built vanity. Whatever your goals, custom cabinets can bring your dreams to life. And since you select everything from the wood species and color to cabinet styles and accessories, you’re limited only by your imagination. If you need cabinets built to fit your space or simply enjoy personalized style and utility, custom cabinets are the perfect choice for you.

Edgewood Cabinetry offers all three levels of service, including fully stock, fully custom, and semi-custom cabinets. Whatever option you choose, you can feel confident that you’ll receive high-quality, all-wood cabinets that are professionally designed and installed to fit beautifully into your home.

9 Custom Features Every Closet Needs

If there’s one thing most homeowners agree upon, it’s that there’s never enough closet space. That’s a problem, because having adequate storage space in your closets helps you keep your wardrobe organized and helps the rest of your home stay tidy. Investing in a custom closet can ease your storage headaches, but what should you include? Here are nine custom features every closet needs.

1. Custom-Sized Hanging Areas

A lot of closet space is wasted with single rods or hanging areas that are all the same height. Custom-sized hanging areas allow you to use every inch of your space. And because you can customize the height to fit your needs, you won’t have to worry about long items bunching up or having tons of wasted space below your clothing. Create separate hanging ares for long items like dresses and coats, while hanging shorter items like pants and shirts on shorter racks. You’ll be able to neatly organize your entire wardrobe and free up space for additional features.

2. Shoe Racks

Shoes tend to pile up and create a mess when we don’t have adequate storage. And expensive shoes can be damaged if they’re not stored properly. Adding a custom shoe rack to your closet provides you with the space you need to keep all your shoes organized and protected. Plus, you can customize it to fit your shoes, so all your boots, flats, tennis shoes, and pumps will fit perfectly into your new shoe rack.

3. Custom Organizers

Custom organizers allow you to make the most out of your space. Features like dividers for seasonal clothing, drawer organizers, and filing bins for photos or special documents help you neatly store everything you need while also keeping it accessible. Instead of jumbles of clothing, accessories, and papers, you’ll have a perfectly organized space, and you’ll always be able to find what you need.

4. Lazy Susans

When it comes to storing items like ties, scarves, and jewelry, nothing beats a lazy Susan. They keep your accessories from tangling and rotate so you can easily see your entire collection and select what you want for the day. In larger closets, you can also use lazy Susans to create a rotating hanging system to more easily access your wardrobe. They’re especially nice for storing your coats!

5. Accessory Drawers

Accessory drawers are helpful for storing small items like socks, jewelry, scarves, and more. Accessory drawers also fit nicely in what may otherwise be unused or inaccessible space. Consider placing less frequently used items in high or low drawers, while keeping items you use regularly within easy reach.

6. Laundry Hamper

Including a built-in, slide-out hamper in your closet gives you a place to put laundry when you change so you’re not tempted to toss it aside until later. And it eliminates the need for unsightly plastic baskets. Your laundry will stay neatly tucked away until you’re ready to take it to the wash.

7. Shelves

If you’re used to a reach-in closet with a single rod and shelf, you’ve probably found yourself wishing you had more shelf space available. Adding custom shelves to your closet gives you a space to store seasonal clothing, sentimental items, hats, photo boxes, or anything else you’d like to keep in your closet.

8. Behind-the-Door Storage

If you think about it, you probably have empty space behind your closet door. Make that space work to your advantage by adding behind-the-door storage for small or lightweight items like hats, purses, or hair accessories.

9. Helpful Extras

Think about what would really help you use your closet better. In smaller closets, it might be something as simple as adding a mirror or an additional hook to hang clothing while you change. If you have a larger closet, maybe you’d like to add features like seating, a folding table, or even a vanity. Remember, custom closets are all about making your closet fit your personal needs, so choose the extras that work for you.

Breathe New Life Into Your Kitchen with These 7 Simple DIY Tips

Changing the look of your kitchen is easier than you might think. If your kitchen is in need of a refresh, you don’t have to wait until you can do a full  remodel. Breathe new life into your kitchen with these seven simple DIY tips.

1. Add a Fresh Coat of Paint

Painting your kitchen is one of the easiest ways to give it a fresh look. Furthermore, it can be accomplished in a single weekend! Choose light colors to brighten your space. Or go for a two-tone look, with a dark color on the bottom and light on top.

2. Choose a New Backsplash

Adding a new backsplash will instantly refresh your kitchen. Bright colors and patterns will add a focal point and pop of color to an otherwise monotone kitchen. In contrast, if your kitchen already has a lot going on, choosing a more muted backsplash will lend a calmer vibe to the room. HGTV has some great ideas here.

3. Organize Your Counters

Clearing counter space will help your kitchen feel larger and more relaxing. Accordingly, you’ll want to store anything you’re not using out of sight. If you must store items on the counter, choose functional storage containers that are also decorative. Colorful canisters, decorative bottles for oil and vinegar, fun or sophisticated fruit bowls, and stylish bread boxes are all great choices to clear counter space while adding personality to your kitchen.

4. Bring the Outside In

Including plants or other natural elements in your kitchen is a wonderful way to increase the ambiance, to say nothing of the indoor air quality! There are plenty of plants that thrive in the kitchen, even if you’re not a master gardener. Good Housekeeping has an excellent list of hardy plants here.

Adding cut flowers is another excellent option. Alternatively, in the fall and winter, you can opt for decorative touches like dried corn, pumpkins, berries, and pinecones.

5. Put a Rug Down

Rugs have the ability to instantly transform the look of any room, and that includes your kitchen. If your kitchen has a neutral color scheme, a brightly-colored rug could be just the pick-up you need to lend a cheerful note to the room. Additionally, keeping a selection of rugs around allows you to refresh your room as often as you want simply by switching them up!

Remember that you should always choose rugs that have a rubber backing for use in the kitchen. Since most kitchens have smooth floors, a rubber backing is essential to prevent accidental slips and falls.

6. Change Your Window Treatments

Hanging new window treatments is one of the simplest ways to breathe new life into your kitchen. Sheer curtains add a light, flowy touch to your kitchen, while heavier fabrics like burlap can be perfect to offset dark colors, like navy. Or opt for blinds to add a clean look. Keep in mind that patterned window treatments may make small windows look even smaller, so save those for large windows instead.

7. Reconsider Your Lighting

Having the right lighting can make or break your kitchen. Consider adding a new light fixture to make a dramatic difference in the look and feel of your kitchen. Alternatively, just experimenting with different bulbs can give your kitchen a fresh new look. Keep in mind that counters look best with bright lighting, so something as simple as strips of stick-on lighting underneath your cabinets can really brighten up your room.

Breathing new life into your kitchen doesn’t have to break the bank or require an extensive time commitment. Try the above tips to quickly and easily refresh your kitchen.

While simple DIY projects can go a long way toward breathing new life into your kitchen, sometimes you need a professional touch. If you’re ready to remodel your kitchen with customized cabinets and kitchen solutions, check out just a few of the ways you can get the customized style and storage you need here.

Custom Home Movie Theater – What Would You Need?

Going to the cinema is a great way to relax and have fun. But it gets even better when you can have a movie night with your friends and loved ones, right there in your home. Edgewood Cabinetry in Raleigh custom cabinets can bring the cinema to your home with a custom home movie theater.

Home Cinema in Raleigh – Custom Cabinets

The beautiful part of having an in-home cinema is that you can enjoy the movies and games, of your choice, at your chosen time and with as much popcorn and refreshments as you please. After all, what’s a good movie without popcorn? When creating a home movie theater, here are a few items that will give you a complete theater experience.

Room Requirements

Finding the right space in your home will result in a high quality home theater.  The room should have the following features:

  • A large rectangular-shaped room, no smaller than 10′ x 12′ (ideally, dimensions should be based on ceiling height – 1.6 times for width, 2.3 times for length)
  • Minimum ceiling height of 7 feet
  • Carpeted floors to prevent excess reverberation within the theater and absorb sound
  • Isolated area (basements are ideal)
  • No windows
  • Multiple power outlets
  • Internet access (for streaming)

Home Theater Features

Lighting: If you’ve ever gone out to the cinema, you’ll agree that the dimmed lights help you enjoy the movies better. A dark room shuts out the world for a more in-depth movie experience. The bonus is being able to view darkly lit scenes easily.

Sound Quality: Having quality sound is essential, as it could either make or mar your movie or gaming experience. You can opt for a surround sound system which makes you feel like you’re in the middle of the action.

Seating Arrangement: For this, you can either opt for chairs that recline or have sofas or seats against the wall. Bean bag chairs are also a great option. If your room is big enough, you might want to create stadium-style seating, so every seat has a great view.

TV/Projector: The screen’s size and positioning will depend on the room size and the number of seats in the room. Ideally, the TV should be High Definition (HD), and for projectors, a 4k is preferable. An 1080p is also an excellent and affordable option.

Storage: You’ll need a place to hide all the gamepads, DVDs, and other media items to avoid distractions. Custom built-in storage space can be added around the big screen.

Other Features For Extra Comfort

You can go the extra mile to ensure the comfort of your family or guests by adding some of these extras to your home movie theater:

  • A popcorn vending machine
  • 3D glasses
  • Comfy pillows and blankets
  • Video games
  • Snack box
  • Soundproofing
  • Massage chairs
  • Adjustable seats for a better viewing experience

Edgewood Cabinetry

Imagine having a cinema where you can experience the passion, suspense, thrills, and intrigues of a good movie or video game, all from the comfort of your home. You can customize the setting with cabinets designed to give it a classic, retro, or modern feel. It’s all up to you to decide. At Edgewood Cabinetry in Raleigh custom cabinets are our specialty. We can design a great look that suits your home theater needs and wants. Contact us today at 919-339-7300 and see what we can do for you.

Cabinets And Storage Beyond The Kitchen

Most homeowners who own a tiny home are often pressed for storage space. They usually make up for this by maximizing the already cramped storage in our kitchen. Although a separate storage room would be a great choice, it would take up more floor space in your already tiny home.

Finding Storage Space

A great alternative is to use the under-utilized spaces of existing rooms, walls, or the area underneath the furniture. Being creative and observant of under-utilized space is key to maximizing storage beyond the kitchen.

Remodeling with this in mind will surely help keep your home from looking cluttered while maximizing livable space. Below are some storage design ideas that revolve around custom cabinets that add more storage space while also enhancing your home’s beauty.

Storage Bed

The bedroom is often the room with the most amount of space for storage. Still, modern design sometimes restricts excessive additional custom cabinets other than the main wardrobe cabinet and a few shelves and drawers here and there.

To account for this, the space underneath the bed can be a prime space for storage. Consider installing custom cabinets/drawers in this space. These cabinets can be either shoe racks or storage for sheets and blankets or other items necessary inside the bedroom.

These items usually end up sharing space with the already cramped wardrobe cabinet, so giving them their very own storage space can make you feel more relaxed and less cluttered. This home storage solution is every bit as practical as it’s beautiful.

Mudroom Storage

Mudrooms are essential places in the house wherein you can leave the weather behind and the stains outside your home. Without them, wet soaked raincoats, shoes, or umbrellas can damage wood flooring. These rooms usually don’t get any attention from homeowners, but reliable and functional storage space can be put in this place. For instance, custom cabinets complete with coat hooks, shelves, and drawers are perfect for this room.

This storage space can be dedicated to essential things that we usually carry outside. These items can be umbrellas, coats, bags, and slippers, among many others.

Outdoor Bench Storage

An outdoor bench has become almost a necessity nowadays. This is where we usually plop down while removing dirty shoes or sitting while staring blankly to the sky. In other words, an outdoor bench is a convenient place to relax. But you can rest easier knowing that it can store things essential for garden work such as a hose, extension wires, or other less than attractive supplies. You can build one by making the bench a top-open custom cabinet.

Knee-Wall Dresser

You can convert the hidden and unused spaces of the knee-wall of an upstairs bedroom into valuable storage spaces. From here, you can transform the knee-wall into a chest of drawers or storage cabinet without sacrificing an inch of floor space.

Storage Ottoman

Although the ottoman has many uses, serving as extra seats, coffee table, or a footrest, its potential function is not yet done. Ottomans with under-lid storage, sort of like a top-open custom cabinet, are the perfect storage space for books, blankets, and sheets. Alongside its storage potential, a storage ottoman can also be decorated to fit your household theme or needs. It can also be stain-resistant or vary in style and height to complement existing furniture.

Contact Edgewood Cabinetry

With so many options available, one can select the storage solutions that meet the needs and space available in the house. For custom cabinet ideas for your space contact Edgewood Cabinetry at 919-339-7300.

Squeezing the Most Storage Out of Your Cabinets

Are you looking to pick up the clutter around your home? Most homeowners often complain about a lack of ample storage to accommodate all their items while maintaining the aesthetics of a room. What they don’t realize is that there’s much more storage than meets the eye.

Storage space often comes at a premium! If adding more cabinets is not an option, it’s essential to make the best of the existing space. It’s possible to improve the home organization and increase storage space by tinkering with the custom cabinets. How so? Here are simple adjustments to improve your storage space drastically.

Useful Cabinet Organization Ideas

Edgewood Cabinetry cabinetsModify Double Door Cabinets: Most double door cabinets have a divider (center stile) between the doors. The stile takes up valuable storage space that could otherwise make the cabinet more spacious and accessible. Possible ideas to get rid of the divider include detaching it vertically and fixing it one of the doors (i.e., creating a dummy stile that opens with the door) or installing new double doors that meet.

Organize and Manage Wires: Having wires and cable lying around haphazardly is a painful eyesore – not to mention the risk of tripping accidents and health issues due to dust bunnies! When it comes to wire management, the trick lies in creativity. Think out-of-the-box to find a solution that works best for your space. For items that are rarely unplugged, such as desktops, consider threading the cables along the underside of a wooden surface. Outlets for highly portable devices such as mobile phones should be easily accessible – inside a drawer, on the sidewall, or a countertop.

Sometimes the Places You’d Never Think of are The Best

Cabinet Space Above the Refrigerator: Most pre-made overhead cabinets above the fridge are either too small or too deep for easy access. This odd size and location lead to a waste of valuable storage space. Consider removing the small unusable cabinet and installing new cabinetry that encases the refrigerator. It is more aesthetically, desirable, and easy to reach. Another great idea is to use vertical dividers for the storage of kitchen appliances such as plates or trays

Keep Your Garbage Can Out of Sight: Garbage cans are a necessity in any kitchen – but that does not mean they’re allowed to make the kitchen messy. Stash unsightly trash cans in a ‘makeshift trash drawer’ under your 36-inch countertop drawer.

For ways on how to make the most of your space with custom designed custom cabinets, contact Edgewood Cabinetry.  Call 919-339-7300 for planning your custom cupboards.

The Ultimate In Built In Cabinets For Unusual Spaces

The Ultimate In Built-In Cabinets For Unusual Spaces

Custom built-in cabinets aren’t just for kitchens and bathrooms. In fact, there are numerous ways to add unique cabinets to unusual spaces in your home.

From transforming your kid’s bedroom to turning doorways into extra storage, the possibilities are endless. Custom cabinets give you the chance to create the storage of your dreams.

Maximize the space in your home by discovering some unusual areas where you just might want cabinets.

Turning Small Spaces Into Offices

Have a small corner or medium-sized closet available? Turn a small space into an office easily. A row of top and bottom cabinets give you storage, while a small cubby gives you room to slide in a chair to work. You could even incorporate a fold-out chair into the cabinets for added space.

Transforming Closets

Closets don’t have to just be rods and a few shelves. Keep shoes from falling everywhere with a thin slide-out cabinet. Shoes stay safely tucked away and hidden when you’re not wearing them. Add a few cabinets in the back to store off-season clothing in compressed bags.

Organizing Your Living Room

We’re quite proud of the built-in cabinets we did for the living room in the featured image for this post. Most living rooms don’t have much storage outside of maybe a bookcase or curio cabinet. By adding storage along the walls, we transformed a simple entertainment center into so much more. There is storage, counter space and even a small space to pull up a chair.

Maximizing Corners

Why should corners just collect dust? Custom built-in cabinets can be made to fit perfectly in corners. A curved front looks stylish and provides plenty of space to store collectibles, shoes (great addition to a small mudroom), remotes/controllers and anything else you want. These are great for bedrooms where you might need a little extra storage.

Customizing To Your Storage Needs

Built-in cabinets can fit pretty much any storage need. Use floor-to-ceiling cabinets, just upper cabinets or just lower cabinets. Make them as thin or wide as you want. Have them fit into that tiny space between your toilet and wall or turn your nightstand into a functioning desk for journaling. It’s all up to you.

Turning Stairs Into Storage

Stairs are nice, but think of all the wasted space. Stairs tend to be one of those unusual spaces that is perfect for cabinets. You can turn each step into a storage bin. Another option is to add cabinets underneath the staircase. A pull-out cabinet unit works well, even for tight spaces.

Transforming Doorways

Most doorways have space around the frame. There could easily be 5-10 inches between the top of the door and the ceiling. Why let all the space waste? Create built-in cabinets around the frame to store anything you want. Most people prefer to store decorative items. This is a great option around kitchen doors for storing often-used items, such as measuring cups, timers and more.

Adding Sliding Storage In Your Bathroom

If you have any small areas of your bathroom, there’s an opportunity to add extra storage space. Create a sliding cabinet to store extra rolls of toilet paper. Keep toiletries hidden away, but neatly organized with a thin sliding cabinet between the wall and your sink. All you need is a small area to make a big difference.

Using Recessed Cabinets Everywhere

Recessed cabinets are ideal for unusual spaces. Create an open recessed cabinet above trim molding along your wall. This is perfect if you don’t have much space, but need a little extra storage. While the shelves can’t usually be too deep, they’ll help with knick-knacks, commonly used items, kids’ toys, DVD/CD storage, books and much more.

Inspiring Your Built-In Cabinets Solutions

Having a hard time envisioning all these possibilities? Not a problem. We want to inspire you to start looking around your home to see what unusual spaces could be made better and more useful with built-in cabinets. Check out these inspiring ideas and photos:

Of course, don’t hesitate to contact us to discuss your custom built-in cabinet design ideas. We’re always happy to help make your cabinetry dreams a reality.

Custom Outdoor Storage Solutions

Custom Outdoor Storage for Sports Gear & Shoes

Sports and playing outside are fantastic for bonding with family. This could result in a surplus of sports gear and shoes just laying all about outside your door. Considering that they come in different forms, shapes and sizes, it is evident that you need to identify the best way to store them while at the same time keeping them accessible to all. A simple outdoor custom storage area is just what you need.

Outdoor storage comes with the added advantage that you will be removing the clutter from the main house, so you have more room for other things. The outdoors allow for better custom storage as there is sufficient space with fewer limiting factors. Here, you can install a custom cabinet to suit your needs and preferences. Sports gear can vary from safety equipment, playing equipment, balls, etc. which means that you need a storage facility that will accommodate what you have. This calls for a customized cabinet.

Benefits of Custom Outdoor Storage Cabinets

  • Convenience & Efficiency

Homes, especially for those with young kids can be overwhelming because it is very difficult to control their decisions. While you are always encouraging them to play and practice different sports, it is not fun for anyone to have to clean up someone else’s stuff or a mess that was left behind because something dirty was brought in. Having storage outdoors makes it convenient and efficient, as they will always have a place to keep their equipment before dashing into the house. You can say goodbye to the days when you had to yell to have your kids keep the house clean.

  • Maintain Order

Customized cabinets are designed while keeping in mind what you want to store. You can have something as simple as a bucket or one large receptacle for balls to sit in, and little cubbies for shoes. That’s about as simple as you could get, and it will work wonders! I know as a kid i had a big bucket to keep all of my balls in and it was simple and perfect.

  • Blends in With the Rest of the Home

If your home’s theme is white shelving for example, we can replicate that outside for the sake of continuity. If you are looking to meet storage for kids, you can always alter the height of the cabinets so they can easily reach for what they need without creating a mess.

  • Keep the Dirt Outside

Kids can be messy and after a long day playing, they can bring in tons of dirt, dust, or snow. Having a great storage option outside means they won’t even think twice about leaving their things out there, and you won’t have to worry about messes. Win win. Outdoor storage is great for parents and kids alike, and you can have storage space created for anything from tools to hockey sticks, it all just depends on your needs.
