WeWillFixIt - πͺπ§Turning Your Space into a Storage Powerhouse
Hello there, folks! π James Piecowye here with another enticing episode of the We Will Fix It podcast short, this time alongside Colin Thomas. ποΈ In this short, we dive into maximizing the potential of your precious space with savvy storage options, with everything from the simple yet powerful hooks to Ikea's new age pegboards. π οΈπ²π We begin by talking about the underrated art of wall mounting, the magic of hooks, and the sheer wonder of shelving. Imagine freeing up a ton of space with smartly-placed shelves or storing your impressive bike in style! ποΈπ‘ Remember, folks, as Colin rightly points out, if you're storing a bike outside, you've got to protect it from rust and sunlight. βοΈπ§οΈ Of course, we cannot ignore the importance of our environment in our storage decisions. Remember that story where I almost placed my stand up paddleboard outside? πββοΈ I quickly realized that direct sunlight could destroy it. So inside it went! Speaking of inside, have you ever tried Ikea's legendary lack shelves? They look beautiful, almost ethereal, but folks, you have to be careful with the weight. πππ Colin shares a hilarious story involving these shelves, an overbearing load of reference books, and a very prominent European president's ex-wife. You really can't make this stuff up! ππ And then there are the roof hoists. ποΈ If your stuff is indoors, and you want to free up some space, roof hoists could be just the ticket. But what about pegboards? Do people still use them? Colin and I explore a new, plastic version of pegboards from Ikea that come with a whole system of hooks and baskets. π§Ίπ¨ From fiberglass roof systems to horizontal and vertical poles, we discuss a lot of options for storage. But remember, be it indoor or outdoor storage, you must consider weight-bearing and non-load bearing aspects. π·ββοΈβοΈ Get ready to tune into a riveting chat full of DIY tips, clever storage ideas, and a fair bit of laughter. Hit that play button, and let's maximize that space together, folks! ππΌπ§° Highlights from this Podcast Short: - Wall mounting and hooks πΌοΈπͺ - Understanding environmental impacts on storage βοΈπ§οΈ - The tale of the Ikea lack shelves π - Roof hoists and pegboards ποΈπ¨ - Indoor vs outdoor storage and weight considerations βοΈ
