Get in the habit of not just tossing your garden tools into your garage or tool shed when you are finished with using them. Take time to put store them correctly and this way you will be able to find them again. Plus it makes things in general safer for everyone. -- Inventory the Garden tools you have, keep a small note pad with a list, nothing fancy. Why waste money buying another shovel because it is lost in the shadowy depths of the shed A list is also a good place to write down any garden tools that you lend out, insuring you know where they are and increasing the chances of getting them back. -- You should try to clean your garden tools before you put them away, have a stiff brush hanging along side so you can swipe them off. This will keep things cleaner and neater and extend the life of both the garden tools and your garden tool rack. -- If you need to use a tool often during a particular period in the garden season, don't store them in the innermost part of your shed. Keep them handy. -- Keep a file handy to sharpen your shovels and to file off any rough edges that may develope. This Article Was Written By: Wendy Mundy A
