Whether it's the middle of summer, the dead of winter, or anytime in between, one of the busiest rooms in the house may not be in the house at all; it may be the .During the warmer months, when we're spending a lot of time outdoors, our myriad home and landscape maintenance chores require a never-ending supply of tools and other necessities, starting with the lawn mower. There may also be a lawn tractor, or riding mower, which is essential to those who have a lot of property to maintain ? or those who simply like riding around the yard. These items are only the beginning. They are followed by a parade of gardening tools, such as rakes, hoes, shovels, weed whackers, edgers, and hedge trimmers. Next come the lawn and garden supplies, which include mulch, fertilizer, weed killer, seeds, plant food, hoses, sprinklers, and perhaps some decorative stones. If you have a pool, you have a load of other equipment to store as well.Of course, we can't forget garden decorations, such as the errant lawn gnome (although we'd sure like to). Then, there's granny's fanny, the name I use for that replica of the backside of a plump older woman bending over as she tends to her garden, blissfully unaware (or not caring) that she's exposing her bloomers and sagging stockings (and thighs) to horrified passersby. Continue down the list of other injudicious purchases, such as the gazing ball, the wishing well, fake geese, deer, and flamingos, and the silhouette of the guy, sometimes with a dog at his feet, leaning against the garage (what's up with that?!), and you can see how fast the shed is going to get filled up.Believe it or not, that's still only a partial list, and for only one season's worth of items. Even if you use your garage for some of the storage, it won't take long before it's your stuff, or your car, that has to go. Considering all of this, it's no wonder that the shed is growing more popular every year. Besides its capacity for storing things (useful or not), over the past few years, it's been busy developing a new image for itself.For example, the shed is now commonly being used as a home office, gym, laundry room, studio, playhouse, pottery room, potting hut, hobby room, supply room, greenhouse, and much more.
