3 PLANS: Clutter-Free!

Hi Manoj,

Remember the storage plans we talked about earlier this week for National Get Organized Month?

We're tackling every corner of your home, including the often-forgotten garage and shed.

So, let's say goodbye to tangled Christmas lights and precariously stacked ladders and hello to organization for your outdoor essentials.

A clutter-free space is a happy space, and these projects will help you reclaim those valuable square feet.

I'm also kicking off a new "Behind the Scenes" series below, and stay tuned for a new project plan next week!

Behind the Scenes 🎬

For 2024, I'm launching a new exclusive series for my dedicated newsletter subscribers called "Behind the Scenes," showcasing what it takes to bring you a project—essentially pulling back the curtain on what other content creators might not show you.

I thought I would kick off the series with why I photograph nearly all of my recent projects, like this bedside table on a white shiplap wall.

Early on, one of the things I struggled with was photographing my projects. They always looked dark and dingy. In 2019, I attended a multi-week photography class at my local arts center. The instructor helped me understand my DSLR camera and the importance of lighting.

One of the many things I learned was that my house didn't have enough light to create beautiful photos.

The lighting struggle led me to transform a wall in my garage's storage area into a makeshift "photo studio."

To maximize the brightness, I painted the walls and ceiling white and added visual texture with a shiplap wall made from ⅛-inch lauan.

A large window at the opposite end and four LED shop lights on the ceiling flood the space with light. I built two floor-to-ceiling light boxes to enhance visibility further, illuminating projects from the side.

This space is anything but dim! Stay tuned for a closer look at one of my newest projects photographed in the "studio" in the next Behind the Scenes.
