Ever dreamed of having your very own garden retreat? Somewhere you could indulge your favourite pastime, sleep under the stars, or finally achieve your ambition of working from home? Off-the-shelf sheds aren't always the answer--the cheap ones are badly made, freezing cold, and fall apart within a few years, and the expensive ones are, well, really expensive. But what if you could build your very own shed from scratch? What if you had the plans, skills, and materials to create a retreat that was as stylish and well-made as a posh shed but for a fraction of the price?
How to Build a Shed is the ultimate practical guide. With its clear easy-to-follow instructions, expert advice, and specially commissioned illustrations, you'll be able to source the materials, choose the right tools, and build your dream shed on a budget. How to Build a Shed is aimed at anyone keen to have a go, even if they've never used a hammer.
Sally Coulthard has written extensively about sheds, homes, and gardens, and is regarded as one of the UK's foremost authors on characterful houses and outside spaces. Sally also designs and builds garden buildings, including shepherd's huts, via her business Huts & Hideaways.
Lee John Phillips is an artist, teacher, and illustrator based in Wales. He estimates that there are 100,000 objects in his grandfather's shed. He has currently drawn 4,600 of them.
