Garden Shed




Last week I went on a local garden tour sponsored by The Historical Society of the Somerset Hills. There were some beautiful gardens to see, which I will probably post about next week, but first I thought I would show you this wonderful garden shed.




Wouldn't you love to sit at this bench and look out the window while potting up some seedlings?




I just love the charming mixture of pretty and practical!




And the outside is just as adorable as the inside. :)

So, next week there will be more gardening posts. Hope you don't mind, but I've been to a lot of open gardens this month, and I've got tons of pictures to share with you.

  1. Can you even imagine having such a beautiful garden shed as that? I think I'd use it as an art studio as well! If I painted that is. Somehow I doubt the shed is usually that tidy ; )

  3. I don't know. Sometimes garden sheds make me feel envious. This one is very nice!

  5. I just whined to my husband "I don't have a garden shed like that". Lol. I don't think I am allowed to play over here any more.

  6. this looks so much more inviting and comfortable than sitting on the bottom step or my rotting front porch and leaning over whatever I am planting, or transplanting. I could spend hours here!

  10. Mary, dear, this little shed is HEAVENLY!! It seems like such a wonderful place to putter around. What is it that we love so much about these tiny buildings?

  11. Such a great and really charming garden shed. If only we could all have one! As I have mentioned in one of my principles of design postings, this is a great example I pointed out- that is a great "focal point" for a garden. You can "feel" the character of the garden in one photo. Jack

  28. Funny! I kept coming to check for a new post and, then, suddenly, the very next day, I see that I've missed a few. I think that I have a very poor perception of time goes.

    I'm here, now, though, and, WOW!!!!! I love potting sheds. I really do! and, I noticed the same thing that you did - very pretty and polished but not "fake". It looks like it's really used and practical. We have great plans for one but I think that mine might have a dirt floor and, I suspect, lots of spiders.

    In to the pile of inspiration, this post goes - thanks for sharing it!=]

    Love, Me xo
