Have you ever noticed how ’stuff’ just sort of creeps up on you and starts to take over every available surface, nook and cranny? It seems to multiply faster than rabbits! Chair cushions, outdoor toys, hockey sticks, pucks, balls and garden tools. In an effort to control the clutter, keep it organized, yet still close at hand I’ve purchased a Suncast Deck Boxfrom Canadian Tire. I’d taken over one that belonged to my dad and found it so useful that I had to get another. Not only do they hold tons of ’stuff’, they also provide additional seating on the deck. They come flat-packed and are very quickly and easily assembled. Nothing fancy, just simple, weather-proof containers in a non-intrusive neutral color that do an amazing job of killing the clutter.
When it threatens to rain, the cushions from the patio set get tucked into a Suncast Deck Box. After a soccer or ball hockey game in the backyard, the toys get put away in another Suncast Deck Box.
All the gardening essentials like pruners, trimmers, extra flower pots and gloves have a home that’s close to the garden, but out of sight. These deck storage boxes keep all my backyard necessities protected and out of the elements, but easily accessible. With a flip of the lids the toys can come out to play and garden tools can spring into action!
