The shed is painted using Cuprinol Garden Shades wood-stain.....I've recently given it a 'face-lift' using oils to repaint the details, adding butterfly's daisies and faeries!
It's a shed full of art materials so I thought it a good idea to make it a bit arty.....also, if you have a shed pretending to be art it's less likely to be burnt down. People respect art! .....thats my theory anyhow :-)
