The Gardening Shed
Pennsylvania shed-owner Judy Weiss revamped an existing shed with her husband at the DIY-frugal cost of just $500. The result is a wonderfully neat and organized way to store all of Judy's gardening tools.

This handmade cabinet area creates the perfect, organized space for all of the gardening tools.

These galvanized tubs with a cover create the perfect table that fits the theme of the space. The tubs store tools and other gardening essentials.
The Gardening Shed
Using an old water pump adds some flare to the space while still fitting the theme of gardening. If you already have one, it's a free way to decorate your space. A fresh coat of paint can bring it back to life.
The Metal Shed
With no building experience but a can-do attitude, artist Melanie Van Houten turned an existing metal shed in her Florida backyard into an art studio using scrap wood for the shed floor and walls. Her recommendation for building a she-shed in Florida: air conditioning.
The Metal Shed
These metal walls were painted to give them a slightly weathered look. Using white also creates a blank background to show off artwork and allow it to pop.
The Metal Shed
Think of your she shed as an extension of your home: just as you would landscape around your home, you should also add some landscaping to the outside of your shed.
The Metal Shed
Colorful rugs are a fun way to make your shed more homey and playful. Rugs are also an easy way to cover the cement floor instead of putting down carpet or tile.
The Metal Shed
This corner is perfect for relaxing, reflecting or working. All the pieces emphasize the personal style of this shed, making it cozy, but not overdone.

The Painting Studio
This is not your average homely metal shed used for storage. This shed with a panoramic view in Queensland, Australia, serves as an artist studio.
The Painting Studio
I would take up painting if it scored me a she shed as adorable as this one, owned by artist Tamara Armstrong.
The Painting Studio
Finding a style that fits your she shed is important. Tamara's simple style allows her to showcase all of her paintings amid a variety of windows that bring in an abundance of natural light.
The Painting Studio
A former teacher-turned-full-time painter, Tamara often holds workshops in her shed.
The Painting Studio
Adding minimal, yet personal, items like this plant and utensil holder allow for personal style to be incorporated even more into the shed.

The Jewelry Maker's Space
Sonoma, California, jewelry and clothing maker Anne Freund brings charm and a touch of romance to this cozy shed that includes a workroom and storage area.
The Jewelry Maker's Space
Having a workspace separate from your living space provides the perfect escape, and prevents work from seeping into other parts of your life.

The Photo Studio/Sleeping Cottage
La Casita is the clever, dual-purpose invention of Dallas, Texas, resident Paige Morse.
The Photo Studio/Sleeping Cottage
Paige uses the clean-lined space with a Scandinavian influence as a photo studio. But she makes extra money by renting out her home on Airbnb, so when guests are booked, she just retreats to her backyard getaway which includes a functioning kitchen and bath.
The Photo Studio/Sleeping Cottage
This picture-perfect space also has a quite homey feel with all of Paige's personal touches.
The Photo Studio/Sleeping Cottage
While Paige's house is occupied by guests, she can have complete privacy with the fully functional bathroom and kitchen in her she shed — a plus for any space.
