Hey Friends! Welcome,
In today’s video I’m sharing with you my Ultimate Dream Garage Makeover that took me a little over a year to complete. My 20’x20’ garage was jam packed for over 40 years worth of stuff, with little to no organization. It was in real need of some love to be able to transform into the Ultimate Dream Garage that it is today. In this video I share with you how I completely cleaned out the garage, repaired support beams, installed new electrical, new lighting and even new wood walls, gave everything a bright white paint job and installed all new cabinets for storage. I even incorporated some of my Dad’s old tools into the garage design. This Ultimate Dream Garage Makeover took a lot of hard work and love and I’m extremely proud of how it turned out. I'd love to hear your thoughts on this video in the comments.

I'm 74, wish I had seen this 40 years ago. Thanks so much.
You got it 😉
40 years ago there was no TH-cam !!!
Do it anyway!!! 💪🏽
Lol, my dad's garage is much bigger than this garage. And I'm cleaning it up to give it a makeover. Just looking up ideas.

This video brought tears to my eyes. My father just recently passed away and his garage has over 35 years worth of stuff in it. I'm preparing to clean out & remodel his garage and came across your video. I commend you for the excellent job you have done. I love the way you incorporated your father's tools, keys and locks into the remodel. That was so thoughtful. Now I plan on doing something similar to honor my Dad. Thank you so much for sharing this.
I love hearing that! Keep me updated on your progress! I’m sure your dad will be proud of what ever you do with it!
Thumbs up just for the blackout tools from your dad being thrown in. I only have one daughter and cherish every minute I can with the hope that I make a impact on her the way your dad has for you.
Thank you for sharing friend, I’m sure your making a big impact on her! Keep it up dad!
My Dad died two years ago and so my siblings and I just finished going through his messy garage and kind of "organizing" his lifetime collection of tools and whatnots. I mean what a MESS. A lot of his tools were his father's, and a lot of them are tools that today I would never use. Antiquated, broken, rusty, worn out...etc. But, no way can I ever get rid of any of them. Every time I pick one up I am reminded of him and how much I miss him. Painting them black and displaying them like you did is really a good practical idea. To start tearing out cabinets, benches, walls, and attics is a huge commitment; and I have to say you did a fantastic job on your dream shop.
Thank you so much, glad you enjoy it. Ever time I see the tools on the wall I’m reminded of my dad as well! I love hanging out in the garage for that reason. Anyway of memorializing a loved one with their items, I think is cool. Thanks for watching and commenting
Let me tell you......out of my 3 children, I could see my daughter Rosanne (36) someday take my tools (now 61) and do what you have done. Out of my children, Rosanne has always been my "carpenters helper". Your father is smiling down on you........this I know!!!! Great Job!
Ahhh love hearing that 🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼
This is one of the BEST makeovers I've ever seen! Love the incorporating of the carpentry tools! Such an artistic touch.
Thank you so much Jason
@@wood_brain What kinda floor is that? It's a lovely floor!
So COOL! What an absolutely amazing workspace...kudos for achieving "Shop Greatness" in one fell swoop!
Why thank you my friend!
I've decided to give my garage a makeover and started researching TH-cam. Your video is the best one, very creative and I love every detail. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much friend, that means a lot I wish you the best of luck with your garage makeover
@@wood_brain you are superwoman
Amazing transformation. Really love the homage to your father!
Thanks so much!
Your Dad would be proud. I have a daughter who’s 14 and we love doing wood working together. Thank you for being an inspiration for my daughter.
Love hearing that! Keep up the Awesome work with your daughter!
Great to see a woman get excited about a garage, cabinets and flooring! :-}
Right! My happy place!
It looks so incredible! You did such an amazing job! I love how much of your dad’s spirit is in there at all times. 💓
Thanks lady, I think he’d be pretty darn proud! 😉
I hope I'm not sexist but damn, I've been watching numerous of these project videos (all done by men) and this one video I saw beat everysingle one of them out of the planet! She is so creative! Her deco and ideas fused with like a practical/functional work space is something I never even considered could be POSSIBLE! Iam beyond amazed. Especially with that table made of keys 🤯
Wow! This comment just made my day! So glad you dig what I created in my garage, it was definitely a labor of love! Thank you so much for all your kind words! Your the BEST!
I spent all weekend starting to organize my garage and began searching videos for ideas.
To save a long drawn out comment, you motivated me a lot!! Just the opportunity to re-do the electrical and conveniently install more outlets is motivation enough for me to re-do the walls. Thanks for the video!
Your creativity using your Dads belonging touches my heart! I truly admire your creativity and feel your loss! OMG and your garage is Freakin AMAZING!!! I need this in my life!
Thank you so much friend glad you enjoyed what I did! Thanks for watching and commenting
Awesome tribute to your Dad and he is smiling in heaven!! You have created a beautiful workspace.
Thank you so much friend, I feel like I made him proud.
That was fantastic!!! Being a bloke, a garage being nice has never occurred to me, just functional. You have given me a lot of ideas. Love spraying old tools and making them into a feature.
Awesome love hearing that …thank you again for watching and commenting
Your Dad IS Proud of YOU!!!
Thanks friend I sure hope so
i’m in the process of buying my first house and wow some great ideas in here thank you, i love the painted tools with the tv such a nice touch
Good luck, glad you found some fun ideas for your new garage!
Amazing! LOVE the black tools accents ❤
Thank you so much
You are an awesome daughter! Your dad's smile has to stretch the cosmos! 😍❤️😍
Thanks friend
As a fellow diy-er and garage enthusiast, this renovation turned out incredible. Love the design touches and quality products chosen. Happy to be a new subscriber.
Well this just made my day thank you so much
Absolutely!! I meant every word, you guys deserve all the success and happiness there is to be had!
True artist, I would love to see how you customized the makitas!
😜
I’m not seeing the custom makita set up. I see two little tools, that’s it.
Great production value. I expect your subscriber numbers will start jumping. Nice job. I shoulda waited to comment... that tv surround is (as the kids would say) FIRE!
Wow! Thank you so much! That really means a lot to me!
Great going. You made your dad proud
Thank you so much that means a lot to me
Wow, I am speechless, and that’s doing something. I came here at the suggestion of Travis from Shop Nation. I will be subscribing. There is no doubt your father would be proud of you & your husband. You’ve created a treasure that honors your father and keeps his legacy going forward. Everything you did with his tools, locks, keys etc just made me smile, and to be honest a little misty eyed. The best I can sum this transformation up is as a working breathing time capsule. You are an absolute master at what you’ve done. I have every reason to believe you will start getting requests to repurpose spaces like your garage in other peoples basements, garages or out buildings. I guess I’m not totally speechless but you’ve buried the needle on the wow factor. Keep up the great work and keep climbing the hills. The view from the top is breathtaking. I salute you.
Thank you James! That means a lot!
Much respect , for thinking of your dad’s tools.
Thank you so much friend
Wow, I have my dads detached double garage too. Im hoping for a paint sprayer for my birthday. The garage looks like your before. I wondered what to do with all the keys and old tools. Now I know. Beyond amazing. Yes, your dad would be so proud of you and happy for you.
Heck yeah friend! Hope you get that sprayer, it’s so helpful! Thanks for watching friend
I like what you did with the locks and keys, also like how you displayed your dads old tools
Thanks friend I think he’d be proud
I love the idea of painting the tools black and using them as decorative touches!
You did the bulk of this cleaning by yourself. That's pretty impressive for one person. Hat's off to you.
Thanks friend, it was a labor of love!
Wow, that's absolutely stunning, well done!
Thank you so much friend
I ran across your video again as I am in the process of building a new shop myself. I really like the contrast of your white/black paint scheme. It "pops". Also, the whiteboard caught my eye this time around. I'll definitely be incorporating that into my new build. That will be great for mat'l list, sketches, jotting down dimensions, spontaneous revisions to plans, etc. Genius! My male mentality wouldn't have thought of "you know what I need in this shop? A whiteboard". But now I've seen it, I instantly recognized that I need that in my life :-) You have artistic talents that my engineer trained "form follows function" mind lacks. You have inspired me to incorporate something aesthetically pleasing into my build. And I'll modify last year's comment. GREAT job! It looks amazing. Love your table saw.
Wow, thank you so much. It’s really means a lot to me. How is your shop coming along?
@@wood_brain It's been installed. I'm getting it set up. Thanks for asking.
One seriously talented lady. Amazing work. Your channel should have a million subs.
Well this just made my day!!! Thank you so much
My wife needed a creative space. I figured the garage was a great idea. Seeing this vid gave me the motivation to get it done for her. From one carpenter to another. Great job! Side note i hope my girls end up honoring me like you did your dad. I wish you all the best!
That is awesome! Love hearing this! 🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼
Wow! You did a amazing job and being a father myself who’s spends tons of time in the garage, I can honestly say that your dad would be very proud of you!
Thanks friend
YOU ARE AMAZING!! That is an incredibly thoughtful and creative space you created. Thank you for sharing.
Why thank you so much friend
Love how you used the old tools for decor. I have done the same thing over the fireplace mantle with old bamboo fishing rods, nets, etc
Very cool I love using nostalgic items for Decor
@@wood_brain my grandfathers stuff
IDK why I'm just now discovering your amazing garage make-over, TH-cam.........anyway, WOW !!! I know y'all are proud of such a great accomplishment. Incorporating your dad's tools into your design and also including ur husband's surf board storage, such amazing ideas. I know your dad would be very proud, you now have a new subscriber, thanks for sharing such a wonderful transformation.
"It's ok to look back and learn from the past, but always keep moving forward"
Thank you so much friend, stoked you like my content. That garage is definitely a labor of Love and I’m sure my dad can see. Thank you again friend for the kind words
GREAT JOB!!! You made the right choice by not insulating. Insulation is pointless without A/C & heat, in fact, it would make it worse by holding the heat inside during summer, and cold in during winter.
Honestly the temperature has been great in the garage I did add a heater but it’s for when I do epoxy so that I could really control the temperature but I still stand behind my decision to not insulate, thanks for agreeing, thanks for watching and commenting!
Absolutely stunning transformation!! I’m buying my first house, at age 53, and I’ve been worrying myself silly about the work I am planning for my little garage, but watching this gives me hope that I can do it!
You got this friend
the editing at the begining was the coolest thing ever, you really took advantage of the garage door and I generally think your editing is *chefs kiss
I also really really enjoy how fast you talk because it's so refreshing (and slow af talking or no voiceover at all makes me restless lol).
I just really love what you packed into this video and the end result is extremely satisfying and looks so functional while also looking super neat and pretty
Wow thank you so much for that feedback I really can’t tell you how much I appreciate it I’m glad that you enjoyed the video friend
I LOVE how you transformed those old tools into decor and frames. I bought a Wagner paint sprayer to redo our kitchen cabinets and aren’t they the best thing ever? Watching this makes me want to paint our garage in the spring! This your garage is a total dream workshop. Well done and congrats! Looking forward to seeing what cool creations you make there.
Thanks Lauren, you totally should! Glad you dig the garage transformation
You're my freaking hero. I was impressed how you did the first part with freaking slides on...no worry of nails. I like you. Great work.
I pretty much live in flip-flops, glad you liked it thanks for watching and commenting friend
Led lighting makes a big difference....smaller and lighter and much brighter!! Great job.
Yes it does! I’m obsessed with the American Green lights
Amazing and a work of love that you father will be so proud of the extra mile. You did not just go ahead & start painting a floor and then adding a couple of shelves. Would love a garage like this 10 out 10
Ahhh thank you so much friend this means a lot to me
I love how artistic it is! It’s not just function, there is beauty in it too.
Thank you so much friend
Love how you incorporated all your dad's tools back into the design. Such an amazing transformation, and it has inspired me to make some changes in my own shop!
Thank you so much, it was definitely a labor of love
This is stunning. I would happily live in that garage. Your Dad would be proud of you. You should be proud of yourself.
Thanks Peter I am super proud and I think my dad would be proud as well… Thanks for watching and commenting
You did An Amazing Job on your Family Garage.....The best part of your Garage ❤ is.... You kept your Father with you. I'm sure he is proud. 💋
Thank you Desiree
Great makeover, love the colors! Fine summary of the work going on over a longer period. A big big job) Cool idea with the old tools spray painted as decoration
Thanks so much!
I don’t think i can do this makeover by myself, but i can definitely appreciate this work of art. Brilliant, in one word. And of course, thanks for sharing
I totally think you could do it solo, but it is always nice to have help… you got this friend. Thanks for watching
I´m glad,I have found your channel, feeling motivated to clean out my messy garage! I love your wordart in combination with the tools!!!!!!!!
Yes friend! You got this!!!
12:58 - this one is hit the nail. I like it.
😆😆😆
That ceiling opener. WOW
I know right! 🫶🏼
Simply AMAZING! All the details and elements just stunning~I'm pretty sure your dad is proud of you~
Thanks friend I’d like to think so
Here in Australia shop's are called sheds, and you've really done your dad's memory proud, my daughter and I are always sparring over my shed and passion for good tools,now a new subscriber here, love what you've achieved apart from the DIY electrical, it's illegal in all states in Australia for good reason
Good to know, thanks for watching, glad you liked it….
Amazing! I love how you incorporated your dad's tools. We are still at the declutter stage of our shop, I am so ready for the organizing part.
Thanks friend
I've only seen bits and pieces of this on IG. What fantastic results Lindsay!
Thank you so much Matthew! Means a lot coming from you and your amazing spaces.
As a brat of a Snap on man and a grandson of 2 home builders/construction gpa's..... great job! Love the blacked out tools and all.
Why thank you my friend! Stoked you dug my garage renovation
You did such an amazing job transforming this space into the workshop of your dreams! So cool! You made everything feel so approachable and the end results speak for themselves!
Thanks buddy that really means a lot coming from you 😉
Omg!! This is so inspiring! I’m a DIY chick as well, and my garage is a bleeping mess!! You “explicit” killed!! I’m so proud of you, and I know you dad is too!! I’ve only got 3 years worth of bullshit 🤭 in my garage, so to see you tackle 40 YEARS worth of pile up, is nothing short of motivational!! Way to go babes!! Im doing my garage ASAP, and maybe that’ll be my first post as “Jill of all trades”! Thank you a million times for this Queen!! Someone needs to send you a thrown and crown for this!! 🙏🏽😘🥰👑👑👑
Love hearing that! Heck yeah lady! Keep me updated on your progress! You got this! Thank you so much for watching and commenting
Redoing my garage and you just made me feel like I need to start over LOL. Good work thanks for the inspiration.
Ahhh thank you friend
Wow… some girls dream of closets filled with designer everything… some dream of spaces like these! Some dream of both! This is beautiful!
Well thank you my friend 😉😊
I have been researching garage ideas for months and I cannot stop re-watching this video😊
That makes my day, Thank you so much friend.
Damn! You crushed it Lindsay! You totally covered the same aesthetics I want in my shop. Black and white! It looks SO good. This video really motivates me to get going on my shop Reno! Thanks! Keep crushing is! And of course. CHEERS!
Thank you friend you got this can’t wait to see how your shop turns out
Has to be the coolest room in the house. All the feels for how you incorporated your dad and his tools in your space. Excellent job!
Thank you so much friend, definitely my favorite room in the house.
Insanely nice!
Very inspiring🙏🏽
Thank you so much
THIS IS THE BEST GARAGE SHOP I EVER SEEN 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Thank you so much friend
This is so insanely good. Interior design turned to up way past 100. Wow!
Thank you so much!
You deserve to have millions of views in this video!
Thank you so much that means a lot to me
The garage looks absolutely amazing! It's so bright and modern, plus we love all the little details you added!
I have a big thanks to my Wagner sprayer! It made this project come to life!!!!
👏🏾👏🏾 Your pops would be so proud.
Thank you friend
Wow, form and function. Spot on.
Yes your dad is happy.
Yes! Thank you!
Awesome Garage make over! I love the fact that you’re doing this and incorporating your Dad’s Tools as a way of remembering him! Keep up the good work ❤😊
Yes!!!!!!
Thanks Jimmy! 😉
It’s crazy you able to cram this in less the 15 minutes. It took 1000 times longer on instagram. Nice job.
Right, and I cut a lot out ... it definitely took longer in real time on Instagram
Amazing! So inspiring too. This makes me want to run out to my mom and dads “art studio” and clean it out and start the work we’ve always dreamed of. Also what a cool way to save your dads tools and have them there even if they aren’t being used. I love this as my dad is gone and I have so many of his tools and fishing stuff, he was an artist and a surfer too so I think he would appreciate something like that. I’ll have to think about some ideas. Can’t wait for more videos. Just in 14 minutes I was more inspired than I am by a lot of videos I’ve seen. Thanks.
WOW! What a transformation! Great job and you have wonderful skills.
Thank you so much. I really appreciate it.
Wow. And the dad tv wall looks amazing, nice touch adding some of his stuff in the build.
Thank you so much friend glad you liked it
Daaaamn, this is just amazing! I started following you on Instagram when you were halfway through this project. Seeing the before just motivates me sooo much! You truly transformed it into the perfect Workshop! Love it!
Dude thank you so much!!! Love hearing this!
This is insane, this channel deserves far more subs- Can’t wait to see the growth and what’s next 🙏🏾
Wow thank you that means a lot to me.
Amazing transformation, my dad would cry if he saw all those tools being used for decoration though lol
Same with mine 😜
It is Fantastic. I love how you incorporated the old locks and tools. Very Classy
Thanks friend!
4:40 Fellas install insulation, it makes a huge difference.
Thanks for your input
Looks beautiful!!! Gave me ideas for my own shop :) Thank you!!!
That’s great to hear
"The root of the problem" 😂😂😂 was that intended
😜 I have dad jokes
@@wood_brain as a dad, I can appreciate that haha
You are amazing
Thanks buddy! Your pretty amazing too
Excellent job! I retired in June and am remodeling my home room by room now. The garage project starts this weekend. That's what lead me here. Great Inspiration! BTW, my favorite shirt to wear say's, "I'll be in the Garage".
That’s awesome. Congrats to hear on the next project being the garage. Also love that idea of having a shirt say that I will definitely be looking for one.
Um... WOW!!! unbelievable! most inspiring garage I've every seen! 😃
Thank you so much friend, it’s my favorite spot on our property
Damn, wish i had enough money to buy that many tool boxes at once, let alone rebuild the whole garage in just one year. Poor people problems..
I put everything I had into it, and would do it all over again
This isn't a garage, it's a studio. I wish I had the time and motivation to do this.
Thanks friend
the problem is, your garage is full of stuff you can actually use, sell, give away, etc. MY garage is full of trash that we can't use 😂
You never know one’s persons junk is another persons treasure
That sounds like my garage. I hired to big strong men and as they cleaned it out, I basically sorted to a pile of save and the rest went on their trailer for the dump. I had tried selling some of the stuff and there was no one interested. Rather than keep junk, I sent it to the dump.
When you can't put cars in to garage.. then something is wrong
Lady, you have won the internet!!! lol very impressive project and amazing end product, it’s also inspiring for me to our garage here in the uk.
Ahhh this just made my day!!! Thank you so much friend!
Love the use of the vintage tools in decorating
Thank you so much friend! Glad you like it! 🫶🏼
I wish you wouldn't have painted your dad's old tools black. If it was me I would've cleaned them up and not painted them to retain that used look. But that's only my opinion that doesn't matter much at all. Amazing job regardless!
Thanks friend I went back-and-forth on it I do still have a good amount of his tools that I can actually use these were all ones that were duplicates and I wanted to be able to memorialize them, thanks for watching and commenting
Drinking game. Take a shot everytime she says "Let me tell you..."
🤣🤣🤣
Wow!!! You take the word "helpmate" to another level! Great job. Question: Do you have a sister and is she single? 😂
🥰 honored by that .... thanks friend, and no unfortunately I’m an only child 😉
Very nice renovation ! The lighting really works well and has given me inspiration for my own garage. Sometimes it can be very hard declutterring a garage , believe me I know.
Im a grown man and father that just had to clean out his dads shop this video got me a little bit. Great work on tying in pieces of him into the remodel .
Thank you so much I really appreciate it. Definitely not an easy task to go through a loved ones things.
