The garden shed often leads a sad shadowy existence and is used solely as a practical storage room for garden tools and the lawnmower. It's really a shame, don't you think? With a little manual skill, the little house can become your absolute favorite spot in the garden or a cozy second living room.

No garden house should be without flowers and flower boxes

Fresh color for an attractive look

While wood tones undoubtedly blend in very nicely with the natural environment, over the years you get tired of looking at them. Since the coat of paint should be refreshed every two to three years anyway, nothing stands in the way of a modern color tone in the course of the renovation. Whether you choose classic Swedish red or a white finish, which goes wonderfully with the trendy shabby chic, is entirely up to your creativity.

Attach ornamental wood, flower beds or flower boxes

The garden house (€24.90) is often in a shady corner, surrounded only by a lawn. If you include the hut in the garden design, it looks much more appealing and inviting:

  • Attach holders for boxes to the windows and plant flowers such as hanging geraniums, petunias, stoneweed or African daisies according to their orientation.
  • Expand the garden house with a pergola that you plant with climbing plants.
  • Decorative woods provide a natural privacy screen.
  • A garden path that leads gently to the garden house invites you to use the house and its terrace regularly.
  • Flower beds laid out around the house act as colorful splashes of color and give the arbor the charm of a cottage.

Beautify the interior

  • The installation of windows provides additional light.
  • Attractive furnishings with armchairs that invite you to read and relax create a cozy atmosphere.
  • If there is a water and/or electricity connection, you can integrate a mini kitchen.
  • Accessories such as a cozy carpet, cushions, tablecloths, scented candles and potted plants add a cozy touch.

tips

The garden furniture also creates cosiness. You have the choice between models made of polyrattan, wood or metal. Alternatively, a hammock or, in the style of the southern states, rocking chairs with cuddly soft, brightly colored cushions look great.
