In case you were wondering...

This blog exists to encourage all those who have ever wanted--and needed!--a tiny getaway close to home. A workshop, playhouse, garden shed, sanctuary, mini-greenhouse, studio, home office; whatever it is you need, it IS doable, with some sacrifice, imagination, and compromise.

It helps if you're handy, too.

Our Old Cabin in the Woods

This was my first effort in building...it's 14 x 16, electricity but no water, and still very close to my heart if not as close to my back door as the shed!  I did the sketch last fall...
And this is the book I got to write about that process...I was 20+ years younger then, and did about half the actual construction myself.  WOW that is hard work...

The other shed...

I don't have one of these at the Shed of Reality, it's just a few steps to my own back door and a nice warm bathroom, but I lived with an outhouse for 7 years on our farm, and we have one at our old cabin where running a water or sewer line was not an option.




We've had vandals, wildlife, falling tree limbs and more in the 20+ years since I built this little backhouse--it just recently got a new roof, and Joseph seems to have solved the wildlife problem...


Sometimes a shed needs a shed, too...

So it was fun to run across this link on the Shedworking blog!  http://www.shedworking.co.uk/search/label/Thursday%20Outhouses
