Shed of the Year

Voting is now open for the 2008 National Shed of the Year competition.

Please Vote for The Plot Thickens

I’ve told you about my shed, right? It’s made from dismantled pallets that would just go to landfill otherwise and it’s got a lovely pot-bellied stove that makes the shed toasty-warm on cold winter days.

What I like most about it is that it’s a real allotment shed. It cost me forty quid for the door iron mongery and everything else was scrounged for free. The bricks for the chimbly stack came out of a skip and a great bloke I got talking to gave me the chimbly pot.

What it doesn’t have yet is a window so it’s pretty dark with the door shut - and in the winter it needs the door shut to keep all those lovely warms in - but a friend on site is going to scrounge me a window so that’ll be the next project.

If you’re interested you can read up on how I built it here.
