We are so excited with our progress with the She Shed that we just can’t stand it! So much has come together this week and the shed is beginning to look like a fun, functional entertainment room. Welcome to week 4 of our One Room Challenge project. You can see the progress each week and get caught up here in case you have missed the previous weeks:
This week was all about the outside areas of the shed. I mean – you can’t have the interior looking gorgeous without making the outside look just as fancy, right? Honestly, a lot of hard work was devoted to this. If you follow us on Instagram you may have seen this sneak peek of what our week entailed:
Lots and lots of gravel. Thank God for our neighbor who let us borrow his wheelbarrow. If not, we would still be out there shoveling gravel. Here is what the exterior of the shed looked like before we got to work. The exterior of the shed definitely needed some TLC and something other than dirt surrounding it.
The shed has these great double doors at the front that will make it perfect for entertaining.
We started the weekend by taking out the plants on the side of the shed, as they just did not look good in our opinion. We decided to get a couple of evergreens to add to the space and let me tell you, things can just never be easy. The ground was essentially rock and it took forever to dig the holes, but we did it!
Here is the shed after this weekend…it is starting to look like a tiny home and we love it! And I have to toot my own horn here because I built this deck, which I think has turned out great. We’ll be sharing more details on how we built it next week, so stay tuned. We still have more to do on the exterior, like adding flowers to the window boxes and other landscaping elements, but it is getting there.
Also, can I just do a side rant about the amount of leaves that have already fallen? I feel like we keep raking the leaves, we turn around and they are instantly back. Anyone else feel the same way?
The next two weeks we’ll be focusing on the interior and doing the final push to get everything done. We have some great little projects we’re working on for the interior and once that is done, we get to do the fun part…decorating! Cannot wait! Also, be sure to visit Calling it Home to see the progress of other bloggers. There are some really great projects being done this round of the One Room Challenge.

Nicely done.
I’m so excited to see the finished project!! It looks so awesome!!
I’m so impressed with your hard work, fortitude and how great the she-shed is coming along. It’s just adorable. I’m really looking forward to each Thursday just to see your progress.

The outside is locking nice and refreshed!!!! It looks so welcoming! Can’t wait to see how you decorate the inside soon!!!
what a difference that gravel makes- looks so lovely so far!
I have some landscaping on my to-do list that I am just dying to tackle! But at this point I might just wait until spring. 🙂
This is going to be awesome! It does look like a little house. So cute! And yes to the leaves situation. We only have two ornamental trees in the yard but they blow in from everywhere!
Wow, so much work! But it looks beautiful!
I love the color of the exterior! This She-Shed is going to come out so pretty! I want one too :). Oh yeah….I hear you about the leaves. They keep falling this time of year.
This is going to be so awesome! Can’t wait to see the progress next week.
It’s looking great! Can’t wait to see the final results and can’t wait to get started on my ‘she shop’ aka workshop! Haha!
I am so jealous of that She Shed! I love the idea of actually leaving the house (and the laundry, the cooking, the kids and husband) behind and taking myself to an isolated spot that someone REALLY must need me if they go outside to get me. Wow…it’s on my “i really need” list for sure.
Thanks for the inspirations.

Wow, that was a lot of gravel! It looks great so far!
SUCH a dream come true to have a she shed all to yourselves!!! LOVE it!
What a different the gravel makes! Can’t wait to see more next week!
I love the shutters, it really make a big difference! This is such a great idea, I have never seen one before and we all should have one. Such a Fun place to hang.
