The Garden Shed...Turned Office ( Now...The Shoffice)

Pin It Here is a little update on our summer garden shed project that is being switched into Justin's office. It looked like it would be quite a simple job, but I am learning that is never the case. Granted, this is my husbands project ad I really have done nothing, but I occasionally watch our children for him.

The boys have loved every minute. Our house is Grand Central Station with people and JOBS. The kids love all the work that is happening out there. An occasional backhoe or cement truck has made this project like a Christmas present everyday as we wait to see what each day brings.

The PROJECT:

• Rip out old sidewalk and add new one that went all the way to the Shoffice
• Put up gutters and dig trenches for the water to go away from the basement
• Add dirt and landscaping in front of the house
• Put a new door and window on the Shoffice
• Paint
• Add carpet
• Find a desk and chairs
• Install heat and AC
• Run electric

Here are a few before pics...

What the front of the house looked like before we started

I didn't get a picture of the sidewalk before, but it was little, and only went to the front porch steps

The front of the office had two beat up doors and we replaced them with one door and a window

The inside. It was  dry walled to begin with, but it needed to be cleaned, painted and have carpet put in

Dirt and peet moss where added to the front for the new bushes

The beginning of the new sidewalk

We decided to add a little patio in front of the office while we had a concrete truck at our house

The (almost) Finished Pictures

Yea! We are celebrating the end of a VERY LONG project. A few more paint touch ups and it will be done (but are these projects ever completely done?).
