Workshop Tools

Baby Your Workshop

 

It's time to baby your workshop. I have some easy ways to take unused baby items and put them to use in your workshop.

 

 

1. Baby wipe containers are perfect for storing all sorts of items, from screws to screwdrivers. You can fill, label and stack them for instant organization that doesn't take up a lot of space.

2. If you have upright wipe containers you can use them to soak paintbrushes used with latex based paint. Remove the top, and then put your solution in the container. Push the handle of the brush up through the "X" in the lid and then slip the lid and the brush onto the container.

3. A place to store tools and supplies. Another idea, hang an unused crib rail on a wall or a back of a door, and you have the perfect

4. Save old cotton diapers and onesies. The material is so soft it's great for a tack cloth, for staining and painting techniques.

5. You can use a nasal aspirator to blow sawdust out of the tiny crevices on a project.
