5 Quick Ways to Organize Your Backyard Shed

• A pegboard wall. With an easy-to-install pegboard, you can transform one wall into a vertical shelf that is an instant storage solution for tools. Pegs can be placed anywhere on the panel for maximum versatility. For longer service life, look for heavy-duty metal pegboard panels; the holes in the metal will not wear out over time like traditional pegboard might.
• A potting bench. Give indoor furniture new life in the backyard shed. An old desk can be the perfect size for a handy potting bench, and the height is just right for planting containers. The space below the desk can be used to store bags or bins of potting soil. 
• A trellis organizer. Bring the garden inside by using a wood trellis to organize gardening tools. Hang the tools from the trellis using heavy-duty S-hooks. Keeping the trellis at eye level puts items within easy reach and makes them easy to hang. For tools that can't be hung from a hook, try using paper clamps.
• Crate cabinets. Old wooden crates sourced from flea markets or auctions can be an economical shelving solution in a garden shed because they can be configured vertically or horizontally to suit your needs. Once you've found a configuration you like, join the crates together with wood screws.
• Hose storage. A garden hose lying on the shed floor takes up valuable space and is also a safety hazard. Turn a galvanized metal bucket into a hose caddy by bolting it to the wall, or hang a large hook to hold your hose.
