They can be a bit frustrating to organize&#8230;  They used to just pileup on top of my tool chest.

In fact you could say my gloves were far from organized&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I came up with a super simple idea, that costs next to nothing (in my case I had all of the supplies already and they were doing nothing good, so it was free!), and a huge improvement in my garage.  A simple clip strip for organizing the gloves in my garage and shed.  In about 5 minutes I had opened up all the space at the top of my toolbox and I from now forward &#8211; I can ALWAYS find a matching pair of gloves immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/promincproductions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/IMG_0002.jpg\" data-lasso-id=\"209\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-ngevCDyY\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" src=\"https:\/\/promincproductions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/IMG_0002-500x375.jpg\" alt=\"I had too many gloves stacking up and it was throwing off the organization of my garage.

It&#8217;ll vary depending on how many clamps and the spacing you prefer, but about 36&#8243; should be good.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tie the end of the twine to one clamp.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Slip the other end of the twine through the next clamp, leaving about 5&#8243; between each clamp.  Tie a knot to that clamp to hold it in place.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Repeat step 4 until the desired number of clamps are attached.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tie a loop at the top of the string to allow it to be hung.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hang the clamp organizing strip.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Attach gloves to each clamp<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>And that&#8217;s it &#8211; it really is that simple. &nbsp;The quantity \/ length you need is dependent on how many gloves you need \/ want to hold. &nbsp;In my case, I made two hangers with 5 clamps on each, so 10 pairs of gloves assuming you only put one pair on each clamp. &nbsp;So I needed about 30&#8243; per hanger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My clamps already had holes through the handles, so this was super easy. &nbsp;I just threaded the twine through the holes, tied a triple not at each clamp to ensure that it doesn&#8217;t move. &nbsp;Next, tie a loop at the top to hang the hanger, and I was all set.  The clamps are spaced about 5&#8243; apart.  This gives a small overlap of each set of gloves without taking up too much space in the garage.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/promincproductions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/IMG_0005.jpg\" data-lasso-id=\"213\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-ngevCDyY\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" src=\"https:\/\/promincproductions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/IMG_0005-500x375.jpg\" alt=\"The clamps I used had holes pre-drilled, but you could drill your own if needed.
