We bought our house from a man named
Jackass. Shortly before we purchased our house, Jackass built a shed in the backyard. In true Jackass fashion, he didn't finish the shed. When we moved in, we assumed that the shed just needed some vinyl siding. We planned on having the siding installed the following summer (we purchased our house in January). But by the time summer rolled around, there was a HUGE hole in the roof of the shed. It turns out that Jackass failed to put shingles on the entire roof. The rain saturated the plywood, creating a gaping hole. Needless to say, we were pretty pissed when we discovered that our shed was basically ruined.
Here is a picture of the ugly shed that Jackass built...
He positioned the shed underneath two lovely shade trees. We are having his shed torn down, so that we can put a new spiffy swing set for my babies underneath those two lovely shade trees.
Since I want our swing set to be in the shade, our new shed had to be built on the opposite side of our yard. This actually worked out lovely, because the people behind us have a MILLION things in their backyard, and our new shed would help hide their clutter. Here is some photographic evidence...
And finally, here is a picture of our lovely new shed...
Go ahead, tell me how lovely it looks:)

Very nice! It's big enough for a guest house! Or perhaps for you to hide from the kids? :)
love it, my kids would use that for a play house and I would have to build an uglier shed lol
Wow, that makes your yard look so much better.
Oh and Jackass' shed...yucky.

Well that is a definite improvement! Well done, I say. Well done!
Dahling, ees beeyouteeful!
God, that shed looks great. Not scary at all, like mine!
oh my dear it is lovely :) very very lovely !! Looks like the house that jackass built is turning into your own!!
hahahaha....it IS a lovely shed. I just love how that all worked out for you! Killed a couple birds with one stone, I'd say.
It's actually super cute!
Lovely. It looks like a little playhouse. I bet the kids want to steal it for their own someday.
That is one very strategically placed shed. It's really incredible what a difference it makes.
It really does look lovely! It hides so much of your neighbors yard! What the heck is that thing they have going on over there anyways? Looks much better! The old shed was scary!
It's looking great!
And it hides your neighbours clutter and gives you a little more privacy.
Good job Christy!

Jackass must be a member of my husbands family. Check out my blog for the rather creative (for lack of a few curse words)way he *updated* our daughters potty chair.
