A Rustic Shed Made From Reclaimed Lumber

Easy
I had this rough looking little greenhouse in my backyard when I first moved in.
One weekend, inspiration hit! Why not turn this eyesore into a main garden feature instead?
Gathering up some old fence wood given to me by a neighbour, and a few hand me down old windows, this transpired...
This was my very first 'building' project which showcases how easy this little revamp really was!

Can you believe this beauty derived from a broken down old fence, and a few hand me downs?


The white planter box use to be a firetruck parts crate. A couple of pallets offer a front step and side walkway. A rusty old vintage headboard became a gate. And more!
The before was quite a site to behold! But that all changed once the plastic was removed.


The lovely cow mural was hand painted by a friend, which now is safely in storage until it lands a much nicer location.
Odds and sods were used to create a door. The wreath is made from canning jar lids.
The firetruck crate was filled with junky relics, embellished with my fav red geraniums. Doesn't everything just seem to go better with red geraniums? :)
This little shed has since had a few enhancements, such as the addition of a PALLET WOOD GATE HERE
