what do you guys do to organize your garage, I saw that the pegboard stuff is at ikea now and was thinking of using it atleast to cleanup all my tools and smaller items.

If you have the ceiling space... those big bins attached to pulleys that you can lift up and down are great to clean up seasonal stuff

Out of respect for Sweden reaching the quarter finals of the world cup today. I went to Ikea.
I got one of those metal shelf racks and put it in my storage/washer room in my condo. Used it to organise my tools, mountain bike gear and some travelling bits en bobs.
I bought a second hand ikea desk off kijji and put it in my spare room.
can you describe the steps/materials you used to do this? any close up pics? Would this work on laminate countertop surfaces?
EDIT: oops I was trying to quote/reply to sikid111's post on his countertop transformation
The owner prior to us put this big anchored ledge on the side of the wall attached to the ceiling but above the cars - I guess I should take a photo of this to show it.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
So we had room to put loads of bins however in order to do this I have to extend my ladder and then precariously bring put the heavy bin on my shoulder and take it up the ladder. we also have essentially a shelf on both sides underneath the garage door (when up) that is pretty useless and then off the shelf are these things that bungy on to allow rope and hoses etc to hang on them. I just need something better for tools but I dont really have room for a shelving system thats why i was looking at something like the pegboard system. At the back of the garage we have lots of wall space too. Im also looking for a better way to store my two sets of tires.
for tires these are great if you have the wall space

this is what i was talking about for the ceiling... probably better options local though:

Yes it will work on laminate, the box says it will work on lots of materials with proper prep.
As for steps, jump on YouTube they have a bunch of vids right from rustoleum.
I'll grab some more pics when it's all cured. Everything went well and actually very quick! I do have a beef though, just emailed rustoleum about it too, on my final clear coat I can see hairs pulled off from the roller. They supplied the roller....
And our $900 kitchen reno is complete!
Cool, totally changes the look.

i used Rubbermaid Fasttracks to hang up my tools, felt like this was a cleaner look.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Did some work then cleaned the pool.

Looks great but I'm not buying the $900. Appliances alone to change out would kill that budget along with new flooring, new counter tops, backsplash and re-spraying the cabinets.

@sikid111 you mentioned your a painter previously, how did you finish the cupboards?
I used the rustoleum cabinet transformation @craigcd
Wife wanted an accent wall in our bedroom. Those wood kits at Home Depot/Lowes were crazy expensive so I sub'd in some vinyl plank with some liquid nails. About 6 hours to complete start to finish and about $350 total cost. Pretty happy with it. Has lots of good texture and its easy to take down when its no longer trendy.

Wow, that looks great, now I'm tempted. Curious though, how will it be easy to take down if it's all glued? Won't that tear the dry wall apart all over the place?
^Probably. Heat gun + Scraper. Re mud/sand the wall, re paint. In my mind its not coming down while we till own the house Ive made it the next owners problem.
The wife did the colour layout each row on the floor and I was in charge of install. We made sure to have no repeats of lines and made sure to have lots of variance with darks and lights.
