Now that the interior decorating is complete, it’s time to give thought to the practical purpose of the shed which is not only to act as an Emporium of Curiosities but also to store garden furniture or craft equipment.
Will there be something in it for kitties?
An
8 ft x 6 ft shed whilst reasonable large is merely a cubby hole when compared
to the 75 sq foot storage unit we currently rent at the local Lok n Store so
clever use needs to be made of the space available.

To avoid unnecessary spending on fixtures and fittings, the shed’s interior has been kitted out with an eclectic selection of leftover cabinets ripped out from the kitchen or brought to Chichester in our house move.
Along
the back wall we’ve hung a row of double door cabinets from our old office,
supporting the base of these cabinets with a sturdy bracketed shelf. Black heavy-duty brackets purchased from
Wickes blend in with the black wall making them almost ‘invisible’.

A throwback to some bygone era with their peeling brown trim and matching doors, they’re perfect ‘museum style’ display cases for my collection of fossils enabling visitors to look but not touch.

And
I’ve finally found a use for that random pine corner shelf that’s been
languishing in the back of the garage for the past 12 months. Taking inspiration from my brother and his
latest glass bowl planting project, I’ve added a bowl of bulbs to brighten up
the corner.
