New Project ..

When we first moved to this house, about 20 years ago, we had 2 cars, and a large garden to look after, so this Cedar Garden Shed was built to take some of the stuff that just did not fit into the Garage.

Fast forward 20 years, hubby no longer drives, so we only have one car, he doesn't garden, so we have the lawn mower man, and lots of spare space!.  As we have just received notice of our local council hard rubbish collection starting soon, and following a super week of sunny weather, I ventured up to the shed today to empty it.

Most will fit into the Garage, and some will end up on hard rubbish. I have swept it out, and let off one of those insect bomb things, so in 12 hours time I can start cleaning up there and move in.  It will be a great place to keep my Market Stall and eBay stock, (freeing up the spare bedroom).  Hoorah.  Unfortunately there is no power up there, so no Lighting, no Sewing Machine, no heating.  Also, the walls are not lined, but they do look good and rustic.
It will be a little space all my own, and I'm quite excited about it.

More photos as the clean up and transformation begin.

  2. Woohooo so exciting Lyndel! Wiring the shed will just have to go on your wish list for Santa! How wonderful it will be and getting the spare bedroom back means you have another room in the house to decorate as well! Look forward to updates :)
