Transform your shed

Create the ultimate summer retreat

Simple steps to create the look -

  • Reclaim your shed, paint it mint green and sky blue, then add some classic wicker furniture for the ultimate retreat at the end of your garden.

  • Give it a homely feel with cushions in retro floral prints and a pretty painting.

  • Add a rug for extra comfort, and hang a voile curtain across the door so you can shelter from the sun but still enjoy the breeze.

  • Put up a shelf to store all your favourite books, along with some lanterns for evening reading.
