Our new "toy box" LOL

Edgewater, MD(Zone 7a)

Of all the crazy things we do and get around here this is by far the biggest we've gotten besides the house. I wish is was shorter but OMG its nice. This is the before picture, Ive removed some plywood we had laying on the ground, moved plants that would have gotten trampled and then did doggy doody duty to make sure no one stepped in any unwanted surprises.

Whew, what a day!!! This pic is a little dark because it was about 7pm. These guys showed up at about 10:30 am and didnt even break for lunch, they took a couple breaks, I had plenty of iced tea ready and they were good to go. We were given an estimate of 2 days to get this completed and they finished it in less than one. This thing is solid let me tell you. All we have to do now is paint it and we are done(at least until I decide to put stuff around it and what not, LOL)

I want it!!!!

Frederick, MD(Zone 7a)

Wow! That is huge!

Is that a new home for a motorcycle?

I hope you get the other outbuilding for your garden supplies, I can't imagine that my DH would let me have even a corner of that garage for garden supplies. It's gorgeous, so who built it and what company did you purchase it from? You are so lucky!!!

Great pictures!

Hi Nancy, this was purchased from Cabana Bob's in Pasadena but the building came out of Baltimore. It is a great building but man I still wish he would have made it 4 feet shorter. This is the new home for the motorcycle and the S10 pick up.

When it was finished DH said that "maybe" he would let me have a little bitty corner, it would be big enough to maybe put a small candle holder in, LOL.
Alot of the stuff in the shed will be going into the barn since he filled that poor shed up with his truck stuff. That will leave me some room for the gardening supplies like extra pots, the wheelbarrow, shovels, LOL. Now maybe I can finaly put up some of those tool organinzers so that the rakes and shovels wont be falling over everytime I move something.

I took this pick while standing about 6 feet away from the door so I could give you guys and idea of how much room is really in this thing. Shoot add some windows and some insulation and he could live in there. heehee

Now that is an awesome toybox! Men and their toys.......not like you won't have toys in there someday...LOL


Hey, rip the roof off the shed and cover it with polycarb! You need somewhere to keep your ears and bananas!!

Edgewater, MD(Zone 7a)

LOLOLOL Thats what I was thinking. Trying to think how I could do it without the ol' man complaining. Of course if I do it all myself, wich I can, he really wont have much to complain about.
Heres a question Chele, if I do that to the roof and stick my nanas and EEs in there, wont I need to heat it? hhmm, putting polycarb up is one thing but I think I would have a fight about heating it.
