Transform Your Shed 

You are more than welcome to use your old garden shed as a summer house, but it won’t be very appealing if there is mould, rust, and worse – creepy crawlies; before decorating the shed, you will need to make sure it is clean and tidy, and ensure that no insects can get in. Your typical garden shed will not have a lot of space, so it may be better to buy a luxury shed space; these can have electrics fitted, which means you can have a TV, heater, and other home comforts inside. 

Outside Decoration

Interior Decoration 

Getting the perfect summer house depends on what you are intending to use it for; if you want to use it as an office, you will need office furniture, a computer, and perhaps a printer. If you want to use it as a relaxing area, then you could just have a simple seating area, or maybe a comfortable sofa with a coffee table. To add to the decoration, you could hang some wall frames, put out some potted plants, and even include fun decorative pieces that fit with the theme. You could even use it as a craft room to create your hand made creations; if that’s the case you might want a craft table with storage solutions to put all of your art supplies in.
