If there was ever such a thing as an ordinary shed,then this was it. However with a little imagination, paint, nails and tears,and glue and string and... it transformed itself into a thing of wonder and joy. Anyone, yes absolutely anyone, can do it too. You just need a willing shed.
When I 'suggested' my shed needed to be dismantled, man- handled across the garden, re-glazed,reconstructed,re-erected,re-clad and rewired,he undertook this with the minimum amount of muttering and the maximum amount of good will and grace.Thank you.

Shedtastic Amanda! Do you need a crusty old gardening lady like Mrs.Acorn - I could pluck a weed and wait on table...... actually I am building a career in the house sitting arena, it could include shedsitting. mmmm. xxBobbie

Amanda, I don't think you are telling the whole story about Hugh. We all know you must have told him that he could keep his train set in the shed if he moved it. But it does look lovely all the same.

I would love to have a spot of tea with you just outside your lovely shed! The garden area contains so much more than we here in dry Colorado can get to grow. It is homey, pleasant to look at, and I'm sure there have been quit a few laughs and good times had in its presence. I vote it a 10 all around!

Fantastic, we haven't booked anywhere for our holiday yet - we fancy spending a fortnight in your boutique shed. Does it come with shed service?
