You've been gardening for a year or two now and have discovered that this is one hobby that you want to continue. Gardening not only brings you personal fulfillment but, your home and yard has never looked better. The only problem is the more you garden the more tools and equipment you accumulate. The time has come for you to provide your tools and equipment with a home of their own. A garden shed is the perfect place to keep all those gardening essentials in one place and you are thinking about building your own shed. You have been looking at plans for wooden garden sheds and there are so many to choose from you are not quite sure how to go about choosing the right garden shed plans for you.
While different gardeners have different needs, here are 5 things every gardener wants in their garden sheds:
Space
While the amount of space you are going to want in your shed is going to depend a great deal on what equipment you have or plan to have in future, you are going to want to make sure that your wooden garden sheds have enough space to accommodate everything you have now plus enough additional space for any tools or equipment you will be adding in the future. A good rule of thumb is to build your wooden garden sheds 1/3 larger than your present needs. That way you will have the extra space you need for anything you forgot to consider or simply for future additions to your gardening arsenal.
Convenience
You are also going to want to arrange the items in your wooden gardening sheds in a way that they are convenient to get and so that the shed itself is convenient to use. This means you are going to want to choose a plan for your gardening shed that has directions for building such things as shelves, racks for hanging tools such as rakes, hoes, weed whips and other tools that you don't want to just pile in the corner. You may also want to consider such conveniences as a full side opening door to get the garden tractors in and out of the wooden garden sheds easier and perhaps potting and resting benches. You might even want to consider adding a porch to your shed so that you can rest out of the sun while working in your garden.
