Pegboard Organization: Not Just for the Garage

• Related • Filed Under •

A few weeks ago I began my Laundry Room Tackle. I asked you all what I should do with my tools and a few of you suggested a pegboard. I went to Lowes to buy a pegboard with plans of painting it white. Guess what I found! A white plastic pegboard for $14.00.

I hung my tools on the peg board. No need to paint it and it’s much sturdier than a regular pegboard. The laundry room isn’t quite as pretty but it sure is handy. Not just hammers and screwdrivers but scissors, tape, and more. No more rummaging through drawers. I love this solution.

While looking for pegboard accessories I found these adorable pods from Ikea at PoppyTalk’s blog.

The pegboard is so versatile – imagine the possibilities: children’s rooms, office, closets, sewing and crafts, etc. Here are some photos from the Hook Store:

An idea from Domino Magazine:

Hmmmm… ding, ding, ding – having a light bulb moment! My 10 year old son has a ton of stuffed animals that he’s not quite ready to get rid of… I’m thinking I could use a strip of pegboard and attach them to it… hmmmm. Thanks for the great pictures! Your laundry room looks fantastic!
Great job!

Thanks for posting this idea! I am going to borrow a bit of it for Lego storage I hope!
Comment by Sunny Daydreame :

This is fabulous. I’m thinking that pegboard in my laundry/pantry/utility room could eliminate my kitchen junk drawer. Of course that may be asking for miracles.
Comment by Kim :

Thanks for the tip! I really need a way to organize my stamping/papercraft supplies. This just might be the ticket!
Comment by Andrew :

Thank for the details! I have been looking for a plastic pegboard at Lowes, but can’t find it. Nobody seems to carry these in stock and I like to touch/feel what I buy first… Would you have a Lowes item number so I can find it?

thank you so much,

Hmmm great idea! Another helpful item for me was buying a very large fishing tackle box for my sewing supplies. All kinds of spaces to fit everything in and is adjustable and more inexpensive than another ’sewing box’.
