Having a garden shed on your property can be a huge advantage, but it’s not just for storing old junk and gardening supplies. Sheds can be used for storage, but that is not the only option for them. There are a lot of create ways that you can use a garden shed – here are some ideas.
A Children’s Playhouse
If you have kids, a garden shed can become a perfect playhouse for them. You can paint it a bright color, add a blackboard, tables and chairs and fill it with books, games and toys. It will give your kids a fun place to play that is outside of the house so they are not underfoot, but close enough that you can keep an eye on them. They will love having their own secret hideaway.
An Art Studio
If you are passionate about art and love to create, it really helps to have your own studio where you can be free of distractions. You can set up an art studio in your shed where you will be able to work on your creations. If you are working with paints or glue it is important to have proper ventilation in the shed. Also, you might want to talk to your plumber merchant in North Wales about installing a sink as well.
A Home Gym
You might make excuses for not going to the gym because it is too far away, but when you have a gym in your own shed there is no excuse. You can add a cardio machine, some weights, a rowing machine or whichever equipment you like the best. You will be able to go for a quick workout right on your own property without having to worry about how you will get to the gym. This could be the key to getting in the best shape of your life.
A Bar
I know a couple who converted their backyard shed into a bar, complete with a beer fridge and a selection of spirits. When they have friends over they can host in the bar and serve drinks. It’s a lot of fun and you can decorate your bar anyway you please – and choose your own music! Your friends will want to hang out at your house all of the time, as your backyard bar will be so much fun.
A Home Office
If you work remotely you probably already know how much of an impact your environment will have on your concentration levels. When you have a home office you can get work done away from any distractions and be so much more productive. You can set up the ultimate working space, with good lighting, a desk, a comfortable chair and space for all of your files. Don’t forget the coffee maker!
A Guest Room
You might want to have guests stay over at your house, but you don’t have enough room in your house for an extra bedroom. If you have a large enough shed, you could possibly transform it into another bedroom for guests. You could outfit it with light and heat and install a bed, even adding a small bathroom. It can be a tiny and compact guesthouse, perfect for hosting friends and family when they are visiting you.
A Chill Out Space
Sometimes you just need somewhere that you can go to completely chill out, meditate, unwind and relax. Your shed can be this safe space where no stress from the outside world can reach you. You can set it up with light and heating to keep it cosy, couches and pillows to curl up on and lots of great books to read. Everyone should have a special space that they can go to when they need to relax and recharge.
These are just a few of the many ways that you can use your garden shed. What you use it for will depend on what your needs are and what will suit your style the best. There are a range of different sheds in North Wales to choose from, so you can select something that will work for your particular purpose. So, in what creative way will you use your garden shed?
