Our garden shed this June. The exterior is not quite completed. My husband Don who built the shed two years ago using both new and old wood (from our torn-down deck) has yet to finish installing rain gutters including window screens. On either side of the building (pics later) are two windows. Both were free given to us by a business client. The door is from an antique dealer who lives a few miles from where we live. Visiting her farmhouse, there were about twenty doors propped up against an old barn. Minus a doorknob, she was kind enough to sell this one I liked best for $15.00 dollars. Of course, it required lots of restoration. Layers of ugly satin latex paint and encrusted chipped window panes were a major chore to remedy. Eventually, I'll replace the current doorknob (free from our box of used knobs) with an ornate Victorian doorknob/backplate. In addition, a vintage screen door would be ideal including a weathervane.

In regards to the much-needed window screens. . . since spring, I've been going out early mornings and opening the windows to vent the interior. Gets really toasty. And then there are the wasps trying to make nests! Not good. Every evening I have to return to close the windows to keep the stray cats, raccoon, owl, sweet dove couple and what/whomever else from entering. Note to myself, build a dovecote!

Okay, that's it for now. More garden shed photos coming sometime this July featuring the interior! Meanwhile, very busy what with painting furniture, creating handmade fire screens, and linen wall murals for Bell & Finch Studio shop. In addition, tending to house decor redos and tons of never-ending garden chores. 

Hope you're having a productive one!

Cheers,

June
