left_top.gifThanks to Uncle Wilco for letting me know about a garden Shed of the Year Contest in the U.K.! These are really fun to look through – I am having trouble deciding which one to vote for, but here are some stand-outs:

Charming Green and White Stripes:

Looks like a home away from home:

The British really know how to work the Kelly Green:

The clubhouse fort we always dreamed of as a kids (no boys allowed!):

One Room with a View:

I don’t know which is more striking – the steel or the alliums. They certainly look great together:

A funky artist’s studio:

Very Inviting:

Serious Shed Site Planning!:

Camouflaged:

Lovely in its simplicity:

No fear of color here:

I call this one “The Marriage-Saver”:

This one survived Katrina. I love the simplicity of this Southern vernacular architecture:

WOWZAH! This one gets two shots:

OK, I have to stop perusing these so that Richard can get rid of my gray hair now. I literally could peruse these for hours on end.  Do you have a favorite?  There are hundreds more on the site – let us know which one is your favorite, and don’t forget to vote!
