A Man's Home Is His Garden Shed

By Ruth Anderson


In Australia, it's widely accepted that in some circles, a man's home is his garden shed. Not only does his garden shed provide a secure, weatherproof place to keep his man-toys, but for many Aussie blokes it's a hallowed place of sanctuary and solitude, where he can reconnect with his chi, and top up his life-force energy (Not to mention, disconnect from bad karma and hide from chores like washing up and garbage duty).

Get a weather-proof shed- There are loads of different garden shed options for the Aussie bloke, depending on his needs. From prices to shapes and even construction materials, there is a wide range of choice available for garden sheds. You can find it in larger sizes, like double-garage sized or something, and smaller ones.

You have to be happy with the garden shed situation in order to be happy with life on the whole. Here are some garden shed tips and tricks to help achieve oneness and peace.

SMALL SHED

Your garden shed might just be in the need of a good cleanout to make more space. This will not only create more space but earn brownie points with your significant other, and these, like frequent flyer points can be accumulated and redeemed later.

It is important to be comfortable if you spend twenty hours per week 'pottering.' Stand with arms outstretched - if they keep bumping into things then you need a bigger shed size.

Rip the old one down if you realize that you need a bigger shed or you can even bolt the two together or place it alongside the old one. Get a well sized garden shed from Tradtested!

YOUR SHED IS TOO HOT IN SUMMER AND TOO COLD IN WINTER

A heater will be needed in the winter and a fan in the summer. If the shed doesn't have power yet, just run an extension cord from the main house to get electricity.

In case you happen to be really serious about the shed you can even install insulation of some kind.

You might want to talk to your significant other about installing install ducted reverse-cycle air conditioning.

USING YOUR SHED AS A BREWERY

If your garden shed is a man's sanctuary then you obviously need beer in it. As long as your shed can maintain temperatures of 18 and 25 degrees Celsius brewing can be accomplished.

SHED DECORATING

Minimalist In their garden shed space, most blokes don't need much furnishings or decoration. Some old couch would be enough for sitting purposes. Vehicle seat turned into a trendy sofa would be ideal. You need an old coffee table, a shelf to hold vessels for beverages, a fridge to store beverages and a TV would be more than enough.

Creative Make the shed more cosy if you are going to be doing some serious creative thinking. Perhaps even a day bed with a nice throw.

Hiring a Decorator Something you need to think about. If you can somehow involve your significant other into this you would be better off. A partner who is into dcor would love to decorate your pad. Just make sure it doesn't backfire and become a hassle.

The best way to have your own space is to get a garden shed. When you enjoy the garden shed you will love spending time in it.
