For those storing your chainsaws... you may want to store them horizontally and place a small flat aluminum pan (like the ones for BBQ grill runoff) underneath the body to catch the leaking chain oil... they always leak.
True
Lay it on it’s side and it won’t leak. Another trick is to loosen the oil cap to relieve pressure but you have to remember to tighten it before use.
The way you hung the ladders is genius thank you for that and all the other tips.
Glad you like them!
I keep going back and rewatching this video. So many coo tips on shed organization! Thank you for taking the time to post this. I will be doing most if not all of the things you did. Awesome sauce!!!
Awesome! Glad you liked it and find it useful!
Mam,, You organized your tools more than my life,, Well done
4:37- "they aren't the prettiest things". For a shed using leftovers and scraps, I'd say that's really a wise use of materials. I just finished my shed with your Ideas. Love watching all you smart folks and getting ideas from youtube. Thanks April...
Young lady, you're brilliant. I bought a new home 4 years ago and the garage is still a disaster. You made the video that I've been waiting a long time to see. THANKS !
EXCELLENT VIDEO! I have been searching for videos for each thing that you did, but only found videos that were similar, yet only useful to get an idea of what to do. This video covered every single thing, in exactly the same way that I will be able to replicate. Plus, you didnt waste time with extra self-serving explaining or non-related stories for more video time. It was clear, concise, informative, smart, and fast. Im headed out to my shed. Thanks so much!
Awesome! I'm glad you found it useful. Thanks for watching.
Damn! I am impressed. A helluva lot of creativity and ingenuity went into this video on your project! I’m 65....my shed is a mess. So it’s true that this “old dog” can learn some new tricks! Bravo-Zulu, on this great video!!
That ladder holder design is awesome, I might have to do something similar!
Didn't need the elaborate roller nonsense. Would have slid fine on anything. Seems like it's book smarts not real work experience
Great ideas April. Really like the ladder holder setup.
Love the use of scrap lumber. Great way to save money.
Yes indeed! Thanks for watching.
@@AprilWilkerson My pleasure.
At last a woman whom I can believe that actually can do the work! Kudos.
Thankyou April, the fence boards as decking is something I've never thought of.
I see there is currently no electricity on the shed, If you plan on adding it later I'd suggest putting everything in the shed (everything that's going to live there at least) and note where they seam to like sitting. Then you can plan out the outlets and lights accordingly, and reduce the amount of wire you've gotta buy, or reuse, for the job.
If you don't want to run power out to the shed, you might think about wiring it as if you were going to, but add in a power distribution box that you can plug into, and just run an extension cord when you need to.
TY more videos please.
Three chain saws? My kind of woman !!!!! Thanks for the handy tips, gonna make the one for the weed wacker today.
Only one starts...
HI MISS WILKERSON, MY NAME IS MICHAEL, I LOVE WATCHING YOU WITH YOUR NEW IDEAS FOR ANY KIND OF PROJECTS THAT YOU COME UP WITH, MY WIFE AND I HAVE OBSERVED LOTS OF YOUR VIDEOS AND ANY OF THEM ARE GREAT AND VERY WELL EXPLAINED. THANK YOU SO MUCH MISS WILKERSON & GOD BLESS YOU & YOUR FAMILY AS WELL.
A 2 x 4 on a maybe 45 @ the top of your ladder, wall to loft. Crawl through. may make getting up and down easier. Great job and tips 👍
Great solutions. i really like how you staggered all of the yard tools. Nice use of the space you had.
So simple, yet, so effective! Thank you , April!
Thank you for keeping it simple. I have watched many of your videos and although I am a handyman, my skill level is much lower than yours. My wife and I appreciate your attitude of making things more useful. Again I thank you!
Thank you for your kind words. Everyone's skill set is different but don't let that stop you from attempting what project you want to do. Research and one step at a time. The feeling at the end of the project is amazing. Best of luck in all your projects and thank you for support.
Wow, the ladder hanger! 🥳👌 So simple & so brilliant all at once! 👏👏
I just used this idea for hanging my shovels, weedeater, etc. Worked beautifully. Thanks so much!
I absolutely love your channel. I'm getting an 8 x 12' shed installed in a week and will definitely use some of your ideas. Can't wait for my garage to have fewer lawn and garden items so that it can become the woodworking space that I've been dreaming about for quite some time! Thanks for all of the ideas and education across the board with your wealth of videos!!
The best instal I ever added to my shed was a motion sensor light switch. It’s nice to have the light come on when I open the door at night.
Great ideas
I love the fact that you made all of the projects in this video ......Simple ......it is so easy I can do it after watching your video
I don't care for the videos that make a 30 min project into an all weekend task 👍👍
April, awesome tips. From personal experience, store anything with liquids closer to the ground instead. Trust me on this. Summer heat and winter cold will weaken those plastic containers and end up like the messes I've had to deal with. I hope this helps.
Great tip on the liquids! Makes so much sense too. Sheds/garages aren't typically climate controlled. In the summer, heat rises. I've noticed some of my containers start to bulge a bit during those months. Keeping them lower will certainly be safer and smarter if anything were to leak. Will be re-organizing this spring for sure! Thanks for sharing.
This video motivated me to reorganize our garden shed. Thanks April.
I've read on here where you say that we're not supposed to hang our weedeaters and chainsaws vertically. Well I've read and listened to your explanations and it doesn't matter whether I lay my chainsaws vertically or horizontally they leak out the chain and bar oil every time. Lastly when I hang up my weedeaters on the wall like she has done the location of my tank cap is on the top side so there for I have less amount of fuel leakage or either way it doesn't make a difference. But I'm glad to know or hear that from you. I have never had a problem starting my equipment and I have always felt that it was the way I handle my equipment before I begin to start my equipment and that is that I make sure before I ever prime the fuel bulb is that I shake the equipment so the fuel that may or may not have separated it gets everything mixed back up and since I started doing that 25-30 years ago I've not had one fouled out spark plug and my equipment starts on the first pull.
Beautiful, simple, low buck and effective. Now, let's go riding!
Great ideas - thanks for sharing! I'm going to use so many of these for our very first shed organizing project. Thanks April!
Very cool, April! The way you approach the design for utilizing the space in between the studs was a great idea. Have a good week!
These videos are very well done. They should be on TV as well as youtube.
Thanks! I'm glad you enjoy my channel. Thanks for watching.
Liking the stepladder storage and also notching the boards to fit around the studs to fit flush against the inside of the walls.
OMG I AM SO GLAD I FOUND YOUR CHANNEL ..YOU ARE VERY CREATIVE ...♡♡♡
good ideas. I like The Notches on the decking boards to screw into the face of the studs
I have seen a lot of videos on this storage and you have everyone else beat!!!
You show how to do it without a lot of money and you also cover 90% of all storage! You really thought out everything my hat off to you.
Ps wish I had people like you around me to talk to.
Keep up the great work 👍
Doesn't have to be fancy. Doesn't have to be complicated. Materials on hand. Use what you have around the house. I love your thinking. Great ideas! Gonna copy cat ya! Thank you!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed the video.
Awesome - very creative solutions. You've given me new hope on handling the limited space in my shed.
Nice Work
I love your style in video editing and photography, making you record all the details with a short video time
Ladders on the ceiling. Genius.
Who cares about pretty shelving when your skills are phenomenal. LOVE the organization, the ladder storage idea, and all the other neat ideas. Did you build the shed too??????
I like how everything is cut nice and straight to fit between the 2x4s and the dowel idea is actually really great-I've been using extra large utility hooks but dowels you can customize the length. Your video makes me want to get out our tools and start organizing!
Great ideas, very well done! It's SO worth the effort to organize like that! Thank's for the video!
April, You are my hero, I am so impressed by your ideas, now if I can make them work in my garage, I will be so happy, and my wife will be even happier, wish me luck!
Your video made the challenged carpenter approach of developing storage a task that I can handle. Thank u for this tutorial Tim
You're very welcome! Glad you found it helpful.
Hey April, I think your tips were great! I love the advice on thinking about what you will be storing and what your shelving needs are. As for putting your gear in plastic bins that someone else commented there’s always gonna be that person that has to feel like they are contributing by giving advice that is known as common sense. You do great things and you gave me some great ideas on what to do with my scrap lumber thanks for the inspiration and advice.
Great Job well done April. Using some scrap wood laying around is the best for saving money. Thumbs up
The work you did looks really good. I have people that work for me that don't do anything you did that well...Good job.
With the price of lumber being so high, it's smart to use every availabe scrap. Way to go!!
I like how you organized the use of the walls. Currently planning the shelving for my tuff shed and may use some of your ideas for hanging tools. Thx, cmc
Great ideas April..the ladder design has solved a problem for me..thanks 👍👍
I love the way you hung the ladders. I'm going to try something similar tomorrow morning.
Thank you, I just got my building delivered yesterday and can’t wait to go home and use your ideas!
Great job April! Getting organized is so satisfying.
The ladder rack is great I'm definitely going to install some of these for mine. Thanks for the tips
Perfect! Thanks for the motivation and demo. I love how you design simply and with the actual storage needs in mind.
Organization and creativity go hand in hand. Congrats on having both. Good job!
Some really great ideas for storage! Well done. It was like a jigsaw puzzle to get the tools packed in tight like you did.

Your notched 2”x6” tool holders between the stud was crazy simple, cheap and effective. Subscribed as your videos are superbly produced with excellent tips.
Great ideas April. I'm in the planning stages of building a new shed, so these will come in handy.
Excellent. I never thought of cutting slots in the rear shelf board is the shelf goes right back to the wall. Thank you yet again.
First thing to do: paint all the interior bright white.
Makes *such* a difference when it comes to lighting a space!
Until about 3 years when it'll start looking dingy, grimy and dirty; also to mention chipping from various equipment scuffing the walls over time. It wont be looking so good, then. So in a long term perspective, it's just best to keep the wood natural.
Yes white paint, windows, battery powered light fixture and skylights or solar tubs.
I agree - white paint. It’ll last years.
Absolute best ideas I've seen! Thanks April, your teaching style is also amazing and it's great to be inspired to take action now opposed to winding up with a huge list of items to buy!
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it.
Great job! I love how you said Voila correctly. I like the double shovel holder and the fact you ride bikes. Thanks I ll use these ideas on my shed.
Funny that I should view this today. Your French Cleat organizing video inspired me to re-organize my garden tool shed in a similar manner. Especially the "long-handled" tools with the flexibility of moving about at different levels in/out of the space between the studs. Haven't done it yet but this also provided some ideas.
Wow! This was an awesome video April. I have a shed build in my future and you gave me a bunch of ideas to better organize. Thanks
Great Job April im an 75 year old Carpenter, and a retired Sheet Metal Worker !!! You Know your Business !!! Keep up the Good Work !!! One of the Best things in Life, is Building something, than at the end of the Day... Take a Second and say to Yourself , Wow look what i built, it Just Does a body Good !!! Keep up the Good Work !!! Do me a Favor don't put those Screws in your Mouth !!! It Can Be Dangerous !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Omg awesome idea on the ladder holder!!! I’ll be doing that in my shed!
thank you so much! I have been looking for an effective way to store my weed eater for over a year....I used your method last night and it looks AMAZING! I added a little hook under the shelf area to store/display weed eater string so now the area is a weed eater station.
This video was awesome you just have to keep in mind it's just a shed not a tiny home
Great video and storage ideas! One word of caution, I would not store my motorcycle helmets in an unconditioned space for any extended period of time! The heat deteriorates the foam shock absorption liner under the shell. They don't actually last very long as it is, much less exposed to high heat in a shed! Free advice, worth what it cost! Thanks for all you great videos. I have used many of your ideas in our home projects. Thanks again from Tennessee!
Dug my brother's HF welding helmet out today,
from his new shed. Everything was all warped.

Great job April! I appreciate the fact that you are doing this yourself, not supervising contractors!
Very nice size shed too. I like the rolling ladder hanger idea. I currently keep them on hangers on the outside
of the shed, but they get really messy from rotting leaves and rain. I have a 6' and 12' ladder, but may need to keep the extension
ladder outside. I also need a ramp like you built in the other video as my heaviest items are a big generator and power washer.
I may design a 4-5 foot "flat" area to meet the shed as opposed to just the incline. I am also thinking of building an exclosure of
sorts on the backside of the shed to store basic garden digging tools....they can live outside. I'll keep the cutting tools inside tho.
First and foremost, get RID of the junk that you've been keeping for decades and never used!!
Keep up the great videos.
Getting rid of junk creates a lot of space.
Your videos are simple and clear to the point. I'm not being trying to be a chauvinist but its awesome to see a women who is capable and willing to admit when she is not always not sure of her choices. We Men could learn a lot from her humble spirit. Thanks You.
Awesome ideas thanks April!! I was just looking for some ideas on space utilization and I stumbled upon this video, so thank you.
So awesome! Thank you for these GREAT tips/ideas! You're da best! 👌🏾
Thank you for the video. I'm fixing to buy the same building. And this gave me a ton of useful ideas to save space.
@@lydialas8756 I'm good.
Beautiful! best shelving system I have seen so far and on a budget. I just got a new shed so naturally I was on here looking for ideas and this was it. Thanks!
Very smart way to organize gardening tool, Thanks April! I ride a 1981 BMW R65LS.
Awesome! Thanks for watching.
The ladder thing is awesome :)
simple but brilliant, thank you
Love your ideas! I'm currently organizing my "She Shed". I will definitely be utilizing your tips and tricks! Thanks so much.
Thank you for the tips. I love the way you hung your garden tools specially the weed eater. I've been looking for a way to handle that all summer. I used regular hooks i bought at the dollar store for the garden tools. I will definitely use your method to hang the ladders.
I love keeping my things organized, this is good way how to do it.
May try some of your ideas helpful
Brilliant, thank you for some great inspiration!
Good ideas and great use of material. I'm an organizing freak, we've got 10'X16' and I refuse to let the floor get full of junk. I work in the trades and your ideas are going into my little shed. Thanks!
I just built a 12X16 shed. I’m adding shelving and tool storage as thoughtfully as possible to maximize my space and convenience. You gave me some good ideas.
Fabulous ladder idea!
A woman that is creative and knows how to use hand tools. I have fallen in LOVE!!
This will be one of my summer projects! It looks like a lot of fun!
So very nice and easy right there. Thanks so much as I have to figure out the exact build I wanna tackle with my replacement shed and I will incorporate many of these storage tips as well. Awesome tutorial and awesome job!!!!
I could spend whole day listening to you say "bandsaw" :D
Lmboooooo!!!!!
You're a dang genius. Love your method of organization. Great ideas!
most impressive use of space, good to see that it is not being wasted.
awesome video !!
1000 thumbs up !!
Wow. I’m impressed. What a clever lady! You go girl. This is so empowering. Keep shining your light for others to see. ❤️🙏🏻
Thank you so much!!
A solar attic fan kit would help keep the shed cool. Great video with some ideas I can use. Thanks!
Very nice April I enjoyed this vid! I have two sheds that I need to organize badly and love your ideas. My shelf will have a stack of drawers on it for sure unlike yours haha :) :)
April, excellent idea for the yard tools! I had 2x4s extending out about 18 inches to hang my racks, shovels, etc. which wasted precious space and was a bit of a head bump hazard. Recessing between the studs got them out of the way. Picked up so much space in my rather small storage shed. As you pointed out - only took some scrap lumber I had on hand. Much appreciated!!!
You are awesome and I love everything you did here. I will be using a lot of your ideas inside my barn . Thank you for sharing !
Great video!!
April as simple as the brackets and shelves may seem, I never would have thought to put slots into them so the butt up against the was. And the slots for the tools to hang off of too. My shed will definitely benefit from this video. I currently have just nails in the wall or studs to hang tools off of and it is not an efficient use of space. Thanks for another great video!~Dolly
You are definitely a top notch April!!!
Stud ladder!!! I don't know why I never thought of that before, but I'm putting it together as soon as I get home! Thanks April! :D
