Garden Hand Tool Storage

This morning I took some time to clean the rust off my garden tools. I also tried an idea I found from the Old Farmer's Almanac - keeping garden hand tools in a bucket of sand. The thought is that the sand will keep the tools dry, preventing rust.

I used WD40 and sandpaper in course then fine grits to remove the rust. Afterwards I used a sharpening stone to hone any edges. The bucket already had holes in the bottom so any moisture that does get into the sand should drain out.
