Since he was born nearly 3 years ago, my gorgeous little boy has had to share his room with all my sewing, knitting and crafting paraphernalia. We are finally getting to the point where he is out-growing his cot and will soon been so wedged in from end to end that I fear we'll have to call the Fire Brigade one morning to get him cut out ..... so a decision had to be made about where to put all My Stuff.
For a while, I'd been eyeing up a corner of the garden that had the children's playhouse in and wondering if I could perhaps put a shed there instead:
From time to time, I'd mention it to my husband who, being a keen gardener, was not too enthusiastic about the idea as it meant losing a bit of garden. However, a few months ago even HE had to admit that our home was bursting at the seams and a shed would be a lot cheaper than building an extension or moving house.
One phone call later and the Shed Man was booked to come and look at the site and by the end of that weekend they were booked to come and built it for us!
This is the result:
It's still got to be insulated and electrics put in, but once that's done, I will be able to move all of my stuff in (hope the shed's big enough!) and will have somewhere to be creative.
Perhaps more importantly, the Son and Heir will have his own bedroom for the first time in his life - just got to get that quilt finished now .....
