When I went on an artist studio tour, I stumbled upon this gorgeous Perfect Potting Shed. It was enchanting.
“Everything that slows us down and forces patience, everything that sets us back into the slow circles of nature, is a help. Gardening is an instrument of grace.” – May Sarton
The garden shed was the perfect place to pour yourself into creating the most beautiful garden. Anything you need is right at your fingertips.
Everyone needs a place to to spend some quiet time and this potting shed makes the perfect escape possible. Every part of this structure was lovingly created and I’m sure you’ll get a few ideas on how to create your own amazing potting shed.
Here’s the Perfect Potting Shed Tour:
1. The Entrance to the Potting Shed:
I loved that the owner of this potting shed created a brick pathway to the door. The opening was flanked by two cast iron urns with tulips peeking out.
In addition to the wood-paned windows, she hung stained-glass windows in the window panes.
2. The Potager Garden
Right next to the potting shed was the vegetable garden. Pots danced along the fence, just begging to be filled with beautiful plants…
I love how every part of this garden bed was used and offered layers of plants…
Go ahead…step inside.
Every adorable potting shed needs a sink:
And a few potted plants…
A fairy garden is always a plus…
The windows ajar to let in a cool breeze…
Here’s a little library on gardening…
So now that you gathered a few ideas, how about creating a special place just for you? It doesn’t have to be expensive. You can use old windows, reclaimed wood – heck, you can even build your own potting shed out of pallet boards. Imagine all the fun you will have creating a garden to treasure for years to come.
I hope you enjoyed the tour. Let me know in the comments below any ideas you have for creating your dream potting shed.

I just loved this shed and thank you so much for sharing it with us. I am in the throws of converting one of those horrible plastic garden sheds into one like this, by attaching shingles to the outside and putting in windows and french doors. Will try to set it up as close to the tour shed as possible. Thank you once again….Pamela.
