I think its because we tend to shove so much into them--or maybe that's just me.Jamie Leehttp://www.startingoutsavvy.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6858528848523758936.post-15129690105968998222010-03-30T08:54:26.868-07:002010-03-30T08:54:26.868-07:00It looks SO GREAT so far!!!

There is paint on it already and when we had a back up a couple years ago, it did take some of that paint off. So it does need a fresh coat. Thanks for the tip though!!

Your basement looks prettier and more organized already, and it sounds like you've got more work to do!<br /> <br />The white was a great choice for a basement, and I think the Navy and Brown will look great, too. Are you using the special just-for-basement-floors paint? We painted ours with that a few months ago and it looks great, but it gets kind of flaky when the water softener overflows and water spills everywhere. :( So be careful not to get it wet and it will look lovely! :)Jen @ homeinthecountryhttp://homeinthecountry.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6858528848523758936.post-24697273287880439352010-03-29T06:06:16.113-07:002010-03-29T06:06:16.113-07:00Great job!

Just never had the extra money needed to build or obtain shelving. It's a pain when he has to find something to do a bit of work. A lot of swearing (just like on A Christmas Story) comes up from the basement.brokeintroverthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04807549927926717216noreply@blogger.com
