My Potting Shed, AKA Crickhollow Cottage
by
Barbara Stanley
(IC: homeowner)
My husband and I turned a basic child's playhouse into my potting shed and MY playhouse, using recycled and re-purposed treasures collected from thrift stores and rescued from being destined for the landfill. We added the picket fence railing and bridge, rose topiary-themed shutters, and an octagon window. The inside is paneled in bead board, with an antique tin ceiling found at a Habitat ReStore in Charleston, SC. The potting bench is a galvanized baker's center with a butcher-block counter taken out of a local school during demolition of the cafeteria.
Enjoyed the project?
