Get Organized with a Gardener’s Pegboard

On our trip to Construction Junction where I found great pieces to make a new desk for my office, I picked up a framed pegboard for $10. I had been thinking of making one to hang above my potting bench, and there it was, already completed.

Gardener’s Pegboard Organization

 

I’m always looking around for a tool or some twine, and this would also free up some space on my garden bench.

It was a little grimy so I spray painted the board with a nice herbal green and the trim in white. I used a good interior/exterior paint to help protect it from the weather.

Now this board looked a little too shiny and new so I used a little antiquing glaze to soften the overall look. I bought a simple bag of hooks for this project but now that I know that I can hang baskets and hooks of all sizes. I think I’ll definitely want to make one for my office. Lord knows I could use a little more organization for all my craft supplies.

You can find all kinds of cool organizing gadgets that work with a pegboard. 

Here’s the finished product all dressed up with some floral wire, plant tags and tools. I love the way it looks and am excited to have some more storage for all my gardening and outdoor supplies.
