Squeezing a quart into a pint pot

The weather was so nice today  that I made a start moving things from the big workshop down into the potting shed. I'm staggered at just how much junk I still have to get rid of and am pleased as punch at just how much the potting shed will be able to hold.  I have ample space for my crafting needs once I have  had a good sort out. I can see at a glance where everything is too. It will be so much easier to find things once it's all moved across. This photo makes it look really cramped but it isn't and the lovely big windows on the shed make it feel really bright and roomy in there. I won't even feel sad to see the big shed go now as I really have great plans for the space that it's taking up.There's another cupboard to go into the new shed and then I can make a start sorting junk in the big workshop. I will have to be really ruthless though as I don't just want to clutter my workspace up with things that are never going to get used. We are going to have a sort through the garden tools too as we don't need two sets of everything and three garden spades.There is a local charity that collects them to send to developing countries.


Plenty of shelf space for me to fill

    1. I'd love a tiny bungalow with a big garden and a big workshop.

  2. Nice that you were able to get started on the sorting of your workshop, the wind and rain certainly stopped play here today.

  3. The shed is evidently bigger than I thought & when I thought "potting" shed, I was imagining all the garden tools, bench for potting etc. It isn't filling as I thought it would. I'm still pondering the one I showed you or going for something a little less expensive. Have fun organisng, take care & hugs.

    1. It's 8ft by 4ft. The big workshop is 10ft by 8ft. I have a lot of stuff to cram into the space. My potting bench is outside the shed door under the covered pergola
