"Hi! This is John on behalf of Expert Village. In this video clip, I will be taking you through an introduction to our garage project. The big part of our project will be framing in this wall and this back wall. Like I said we are going to frame it in and we are going to insulate it, then we are going to hang sheet rock and paint it. Towards the end of our project, we are going to add some storage units on this back wall. As we move down the back wall, we are going to have to frame around our electrical. This wall here we are going to have to frame in and over here we are going to have to finish this wall and paint it as well. The other part of our project will be adding some storage for shovels and children’s toys over on this wall. "
