This wasted space belongs to the active and fun loving Eddins. With two growing kids, Rob and Sarah are all out of ideas when it comes to storing their children's things. The small passage in Ethan's room would be a fun place to play, but it's dirty, dark, and Lily can't even get in there! It's more of a waste than a playroom, so we've come to help. We'll install a brand new door. Inside the door, we'll outfit the space with better flooring and some much needed storage options.

The largest storage box in many homes is not in the closet, but the garage. But some families stuff so much into their garage that once the cars are in place, they're stuck. Jill Caldwell is running out of storage space. With three active boys and a husband who loves sports, there isn't enough garage shelving to hold all the balls, bats, shoes, and equipment for this growing team of hers. Everything gets thrown together and thrown around. It's time to get team Caldwell organized! The plan includes a 16-foot shelf across the top of the garage to create storage space out of reach from the kids, a ball caddy with shelves for storage and bungee cords across the front, professional sports lockers, and a laser guided device to show where to stop the car.

Katie Goodwin's bedroom used to be the family bonus room. Not anymore! Sometimes the boys of the house seem to forget that. Once Katie finally gets them out, she's able to spend some time with her mom. That is, if they can find room. The enormous cabinet juts out from the knee wall and takes up a lot of floor space.
