My NEW Garden Shed

 

For years we have had a tiny metal shed that we both would bump our heads in. It was cheap and it would keep our outside stuff dry, mostly. We have lived here for about twenty years, so perhaps it was about time to get a more grown up shed.

So I designed one with glee while my husband grumbled about Pinterest under his breath.

This is the before photo. 2020.

I have spent many years building up the privacy factor and it was difficult to pull it all down and strip the corner.

So we stripped it in April while everything was still dormant so it didn't seem like we were taking away so much. It took the two of us a weekend to clear it out, roots and everything.



 These two beautiful sheds were my inspiration off of Pinterest.

The floor went in first.
I wanted a concrete pad but this is what I got. I cannot complain too much because when I step into my shed the smell of new wood is a wonderful thing to experience.

Three weeks later the framing happened. In one weekend, the framing was up.



I'm going to leave that there for today, I hope you look forward to seeing tomorrow's blog.

Hydrangeas

It's that time of year! Hydrangeas have bloomed. Sunflowers have bloomed. If you want them all year round, here's the best way to keep them! All are still available!  

Audiobooks and Art

I know many artists like to listen to music while they paint but I like to listen to audiobooks. I borrow from the library and its usually great but today I was three quarters through when it expired on me (my fault). When I went back in to borrow it, I had to place a hold. So I'll have to wait a week to find out what happened.  Blue Hydrangea 096 oil on canvas board 8" by 8" Click to Buy   Whenever I look at a painting I can always remember what book I was listening to. In some ways I self title them that way. This one will always be split into two but I got it finished anyway.  Not to advertise but I realize if I don't say it's a cliff hanger -  Sara Gruen - At the Water's Edge (interrupted- don't tell me how it ends) Sara Gruen - Water For Elephants
