Gentlemen, are your wives’ hobbies taking over your garage? Has your toolbox been pushed aside for a potting bench? Has your workbench been crowded out by her treadmill and workout gear? Is your garage now less about the family cars, and more about paint and decorating supplies? 

You are not alone. And, we have a solution - the She Shed!

Whether or not you’ve heard of She Sheds before, it’s a trend that’s definitely here to stay. And if you want your garage back, it’s a great way to achieve your goal while giving your wife a space that’s all her own.

She Sheds aren’t about storage. Think of the man cave trend, but for women. It’s a place your wife can pursue her passions, entertain friends and maybe get a little well-deserved quiet time. All it takes to get started is a shed in your backyard - either an unused shed  that isn’t meeting its potential, or a new steel shed like one from VersaTube designed for this specific purpose.

If you’re working with an existing shed, start with a good clean out and a fresh coat of paint - whimsical colors are fun. If you’re doing new construction, use our Design Your Own tool to choose the size of shed you need, and specify door and window placements. We also offer financing so you can get started right away.

The setting of the She Said makes a big difference. With an existing shed, you probably can’t move it. But plantings including climbing vines can help create the right setting. If you have the option, try to nestle your new shed into existing trees or landscaping to help make this job a little easier.

Inside, help your wife furnish the shed to fit her hobbies and needs. Does she enjoy gardening? Make it a cozy potting shed that still has space for comfortable seating. Is she a painter? Make sure the shed has good light, and plenty of storage for canvases, paints, brushes and the like. Is she simply looking for a place to read, relax and visit with friends? Cozy seating, good lighting, and small fridge for snacks and cold drinks are the order of the day.

It doesn’t have to cost a fortune, either. You can find great furnishings second-hand online, or at local garage sales and antique stores. And if you need a new shed, VersaTube steel sheds are dependable AND affordable, and can be assembled in just a few days.

So give your wife something she’ll love (And get your garage back, too!) with a She Shed!
