| I have been wanting one for so long and have seen so many pretty ones on this forum.
I can't wait to plant the area around the shed with flowers.

| It's a charmer! Looks like you might be able to use it as a greenhouse too. I can just see it all planted. Happy for you. |

| Wow, you even have skylights. It looks great. |

| When I saw your questions for Vikki, I hoped she would answer soon so I could then tag on to the thread and ask if you ever got a greenhouse. This will be even better! Is that a potting bench under the shed, in the shed? You will really enjoy this, it is great. Nell |

| Oh boy! This is so similar to what I would like for a shed/greenhouse/outdoor shower area!! I LOVE THIS! It's awesome! |
RE: I finally got a garden shed.

| Yes Nell that is potting bench under the shed outside. I will also have one inside. I added the skylights so I could overwinter some of my ferns and potted plants. Not sure how that will work out since the shed is not heated. But our winters do not get very cold. I really just wanted a place to store all my "garden stuff" so that it is out of site but easy to get to when needed. |

| I love it. That long overhang really makes it look great. |

| Oh - that's really cute! It's also similar to what I want, actually, except I want the porch area more as a sitting area. |

Faye,
What a great looking garden shed. Lots of windows and sky lights will be great for winter storage and starting seeds. I can see a flowering vine climbing up the post to the overhand. Can't wait to see it all planted up.

| That is a great shed/work area/greenhouse! How smart to combine so many different aspects. Did you get a good rain the past 2 days? I sure hope so. I have out planting all AM. Looks like no more for a while though ...sigh. Please post as you plant it up...really looks GREAT !! c |

Trail,
Yes we got 3 inches yesterday and it is raining today as well. We really needed it. I had huge cracks in the yard. I have clay soil and when it gets dry it cracks wide open. I could lose a leg if I am not careful where I step. I will be sure to add more pictures as the shed bed develops. faye |
RE: I finally got a garden shed.
| | |
| None today for us. I am glad you got some. Please be careful....c |

| Faye, what a great little garden shed, I love the overhang and the potting bench on the outside especially nice when it's hot out, a nice place for a couple of chairs and a small table too. Annette |

| Your shed looks great and I'm happy that you already have plans with it. I'd like something like that also someday. Punk |

| It looks like a winner. Is the shed part about 8 x 12? You are going to love it, and you were very smart to have a nice big shed-roof shelter on the back. I'm sure that shade in Alabama is welcome at least half the year. Who gets to paint it? You? :-) You will send us follow-up photos, right? ThinMan |

Thinman,
I am the holder, getter, and painter. I am going to start the painting this weekend. Yes in this heat????
The shed is 8 x 12 and the lean-to on the side is 10 x 12 I think. and shade is alway nice in Alabama :-) faye |
RE: I finally got a garden shed.
| | |
| Doin' the happy shed dance for you! : ) That looks like a great place for plants and garden goodies. I like the lean-to area, too. You can make a mess out there at the potting table and still keep the inside somewhat clean. Nice! Haha! I am the holder, getter and painter, too. So what color are you going to paint it? Diana |
RE: I finally got a garden shed.
| | |
| Oh WOW!!! I have a terrible case of shed envy! I love every little thing about your shed. I'd post a picture of mine and ask for advice on fixing it up but I fear it would break the camera! Congratulations!! Can't wait to see how you make it even more stunning. |
RE: I finally got a garden shed.
| | |
| Wow! That is so neat! It is almost exactly what I want. Please keep us posted on what you do with it. |
