Outhouse Garden Shed
by

A few family rules if still in original use. Keep extra roll of toilet paper under the coffee can.
I've always loved outhouses for some reason.
In our family, you should always plant a large plant in front. This goes back to my mother who sat down one day and then jumped up and ran out with her pants still down. Seems that a cat got there first. Also, Uncle Tom's faced the river that has traffic going down it. A nice big plant gave it privacy. In the summer when the smell can get bad you can leave the door open, while in use, if you have a nice bush in front. Always lock up when done, see cat reason. Now a days, they mostly don't get used for the intended purpose. I found this one turned into a garden shed which I liked but before I was able to save up the money for it, the business went out of business. I'm glad I at least got a picture of it, maybe someone can make me one.

Wow! You've inspired me! We have an old outhouse on our property. I just gave up the building I was going to use as a potting shed to make a chicken coop. Never thought of making the outhouse into a potting shed. Wonderful!!!
