Default Garage Makeover

I've only got a one-car garage, so I decided to clean it out, paint, decorate...add some cabinets...add a lift...and now it's a two-car garage...sort of.

Looks good! Gives me some inspiration. I just bought my first house with a double garage. Need to look into buying a work bench like what you have on the left and some flooring

Thanks for all the positive comments.
