Introduction
Remember that pantry cabinet from my last video? Let's use it to transform my parents' cluttered garage in today's video.

This video was sponsored by Mr. Cool. Learn more about Mr. Cool and the available models and their features at https://www.mrcooldiy.com

My parents' garage was just kind of...a mess. I wanted to help them clean up, organize, and update this corner of it so my dad would have somewhere to tinker and my mom could store away all her paint cans (besides the floor).

I hope you enjoy watching this simple, but practical garage makeover and a peek at something new I recently added to my own shop space.
