Super organised sheds to swoon over
Organised garden huts that will make you green with envy
If you enjoy spending time pottering in the garden, then having an organised tool shed is a must.
Keeping all your tools, pots and plants in order, the shed can prove your new outdoor sanctuary during the summer and winter months. Keeping it organised is a must - you don't want mud being traipsed in here, nor do you want a chaotic mess in which nothing can be found until next year's spring clean...
Here are a few formidably organised sheds you will swoon over...
The paint job

Potty for potting
This potting shed is the potter's dream - fitting all essential tools in a small space, with room to harvest your vegetables indoors. The exposed brick keeps the look rustic, with potting riddles hung for decoration.
Workbench wonder
Multiple organisation systems are in place in this shed - there's the workbench with shelves and drawers, and there are hooks to hang up other bits and bobs. It is so tidy in fact, that even items from the home with no place to live are stored in here.
