August 11, 2021: I made a note to build French cleats to organize my garage (we had been in this house 6 months). It has taken me just over 3 years to find the time to do this one-weekend project. I was unable to see how smothering our relationship was while I was in it.

Organizing my garage is definitely contributing to my happiness. Can't wait to make several different types of shelves and hangers to put all my loose tools up on the wall.

@codelesscody how did you adhere the French cleat to the plastic bins?
@woolie oh, I just used screws in the bin's existing mounting holes. Previously, I had screwed these bins directly to the wall, but the holes are not spaced properly to get more than one screw in a standard american-spaced wall stud (16"), and I'm not really a fan of drywall anchors.
