A New Shed for the Garden

[@MILAS413]

I can not tell you how much I love watching your videos. When I had my house, I was just like you always doing something different in my garden. I miss that a lot, but since I found your channel, I find comfort and joy watching you being so creative in your beautiful garden. I love seeing your son get involved in helping you. That says a lot of him. God bless you all, and once again, thank you. 🙏❤

[@Lets_see_how_this_plays_out]

You deserve a man cave! I love the repurposing of items. I am imagining an earthy palette, so it’s hidden with the surrounding foliage in spring, summer, and fall. If you want bright Mardi Gras colors, maybe do that in the interior for yourself?

[@SomeSpaceToGrow]

Mike it looks amazing!! Your resourcefulness. creativity, and skill are astounding.

[@flowergirl-yz3ki]

I love hearing your thought process. So creative!

[@tamarblake3640]

Mike you nailed it again,superific if there is such a word,love it man❤❤❤❤jamaica

[@alysonmiller8420]

Thank you for posting this❤ Always a joy to visit your gardens

[@godschildyes]

Looks great! It's so wonderful to see your garden this time of year with its beautiful cold season colors and growth. I am loving the zen character and flow. Very peaceful... This looks gives the presence of ancient existences. That shed is perfectly placed. Thank you so much for sharing. 🙏🏾 ❤

[@patdelaney191]

Come on everyone, please give him a big thumbs up 👍. Thank you

[@marilynmourdock3688]

I would like to see the exterior blend in more with the surrounding trees, but you can go crazy with inside color and planter boxes. So much fun!

[@EverydayKindaGuy]

You know, if you're bored you're welcome to come by and do projects here. I'll even make you coffee.

[@moxiegardens8033]

🤣🤣🤣

Shed colors: burnt orange exterior with walnut brown stain for trim and a teal green door. Or dusty teal green exterior with walnut brown trim and burnt orange door.

[@lindapersico]

Your garden brings me joy ! I vote for woodland colors. Stay warm.

[@amsreilly]

Thank you for another great video. I love hearing all of your thoughts on the garden, so please keep talking! So inspiring.

[@jennifergreene8891]

I thoroughly enjoy your channel. Love hearing you talk and share your plans, thoughts, and ideas, keep it up. I am so AMAZED at how that turned out! You are quite a craftsman and designer as well as gardener. Its amazing how you found all that on fb market place. I love the color of the wood already so i think yellow and purple trim 😊 Thank you for another great video. Love it!

[@janiemoore7576]

Have you thought about creating a moon garden section? All white

[@leadepp4047]

Nice! Can’t wait to see it completed.

[@bleazyful]

I like the more natural look and think maybe just stain it

[@MILAS413]

I agree. I also like the rustic natural look.

[@themainer1267]

Terrific man cave. Switching the colors from the chicken coop would look great and, of course, complement each structure. The man cave walls can be the mustard yellow that's in the chicken coop door, and the trim on the man cave can be the red tone of the chicken coop walls. The man cave doors would look great stained the same color as the chicken coop door frame. Windowpane grid wood a rich blue to work with the spruce. Black window box and any metal nod to French Quarter. Colored beads or black scroll metal hanging from the eaves.

[@moxiegardens8033]

So good !!! 🤝

[@Leekle2ManE]

No, you do not talk too much. Everyone has their preferences and one of mine is when I get to hear the thoughts of the gardener, even if they are musings of future projects. It shows that the gardener isn't just following some paint-by-number plan. The cubby section was a nice idea. One of those things that just slightly bugs me when getting/building a new shed is the floor space will immediately get eaten up by shelves or a bench or something. That cubby allows you to keep the main floor open... to some degree. And as a fellow bald man who is over 6', it is rare for me to not have knicks and bumps on my scalp... but that height means most people don't see all the damage. And lastly, colors are an area I kind of struggle with. My 2 cents on colors for shed, maybe a subdued color for the walls and bright colors for the trim. A subdued, ivy green maybe and then do yellow goldnon the roof trim and purple on the window frame and orange on the door. You get a Mardi Gras color palette, but the subued color of the main structure keeps it from being too bright and in your face.

[@deannahaworth7666]

Wow , you are amazing in all your garden skills your fantasy garden looks great

[@myvideos6195]

Hi, yes, yellow would be great. I thought it was yellow already, and that caught my eye, which is the reason i clicked on this video. It looks beautiful, magical. The sun shinning on it is just perfect! I say paint it yellow period, nothing else.

[@juneramirez8580]

I have a perfect spot for a little Hobit house in my yard! Thank you for the idea! I also have some tree stumps I want to make fairy houses out if. You have so many adorable things of interest in your garden!!!

[@susanbusching8165]

Love the color as is. If you decide to stain, maybe around window and door. It’s a cheering color as is..

[@BarbaraPruitt-hh2hl]

Wow the money you save by getting the freebies which I love I am always looking when I go out ,that tall wood structure right at the door is what and what is growing over the lids so much fun

[@ElaineKrysiak]

I'm surprised you don't have a firepit. If that were MY garden I certainly would want to spend as much time as possible back there. It's like a fantasy world!

[@dvssayer5621]

Or a bench swing covered with a vine plant. How do u live without a swing! I sit in mine all summer and analyze the whole garden space from there, transplant things I see that aren't quite right even if I move things by a foot or less!

[@mariay.279]

How wonderful tht u can do all this in ur yd. I live vicariously thru ur projects. We hv to get permission for everyrhing here. Plants are ALL in pots. So, thank you n ur wife for all the videos.

[@twilde3754]

Amazing!

[@EllenAday]

I love your videos and your garden! Next...she shed! Im sure you would make one so whimsical and lovely. Would fit right in. Thank You!

[@janiemoore7576]

You are very inspiring 😊

[@jangabel6363]

I can see lots of people reaching out for hire you for their own projects.

[@AJsGreenThumbLLC]

Your creativity knows no bounds! Definitely inspired!

[@bonniemiller9197]

A wee suggestion, check Scandinavian design for some inspiration. I understand they have a direct line to the fairies.

[@saraw8503]

I see woodland colors.

[@judyanderson8782]

Are you going to put a little stove in your man cave? The type they have for tiny houses. So you can keep warm this winter? You're becoming a talented builder. The greens and browns would look perfect on it cause you don't want the workplace to stand out only the hobbit houses.

[@saraw8503]

There are also little propane or diesel heaters used in boats.

[@dawndawn6946]

LOVE it!❤ Great work!

[@thania2266]

wow, you are amazing! So, talented.

[@time2bcreative]

I always get so excited to see a new video from you because I know you’re going to take us on a creative journey. I love the passion you have a joy you get when in the garden, down to the beautiful moss growing. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family

[@lisakelly776]

Wow!!! I would love a little shed. Earth tone colors would be nice. A little shed in the woods 😊

[@vivianking8143]

Love the shed, was thinking you would have put a thatch roof. In Joy

[@iartistdotme]

Pick a color or colors that nature has already in your garden. Then you can let the color that will come in the window box be a star that you can change for each season. That would be a continuous pretty change and fun to create maybe with tiny lights.

[@evelynmcgee8365]

Amazing, great work. So glad to see what’s happening with your garden.Miss ya’ll❤❤❤

[@vivienarnold7950]

Fantastic garden. Love your projects.

[@sharonblack3805]

You are so talented both in your gardening and building! But I agree with your wife about the colors! Think it will distract from your beautiful garden!

[@curtreese3089]

I would move the light post… it distracts from the man cave… you did a great job.

[@judicoleman6838]

Awesome project - looks awesome!!

[@victoriabourgeois3273]

Go bold and bright. Can’t wait for final video on this project. Tfs cheers

[@madpharmtech]

I would leave the little house the way it is and allow it to age naturally.

[@jaynemar1]

A rusty orange would be nice for the new build!

[@debhodge8683]

I love it and I'm a little envious! I would use colors and stains that compliment your other structures. What about using trailing vines to accent the roof lines. The chicken coup is awesome but will the chickens eat some of your flowers? IDK. Thank you for sharing! 🌿🌳

[@GlendasTexasGarden]

Very nice, so creative 😊Yes yellow would be nice.

[@rosemarybushea3447]

Really cool shed!

[@a2j457]

Here wishing I could replicate my own Mickey and Minnie's houses that DW removed from Toontown..Lol 🤷‍♀️

[@tsali1293]

Nice job. Looks really kool. I’m enjoying your videos.

[@nancykulp8545]

Another terrific project for your backyard! I was searching the web for colors to match your roof, and the majority seem to be like a forrest green, or federal blue. But, I can't wait to see what you imagine since you are so creative and artisitic!

[@inspiringgardenkorner]

Oh it’s so quaint

[@dennymeyer1287]

Looks so good. again, love it! and I love the colors now and the dark trim sounds really pretty. I am like your wife I think, a vanilla person. but then when do those colors you do on all the others. I just love it! so once again. Do you Mike. I know it will look good. i think i would put that lamp post to the side of the man cave more so you can see the lamp part from the moon gate Genie : )

[@lydiarivera-pl9by]

Why not consider leaving the man cave a natural color? It stands out among your garden as is. Really beautiful

[@isobelhubble1153]

I haven’t watched your videos for a while and I can tell you that your monologue during the video has really improved. Keep on talking.

[@angelaengler2387]

Your garden is BEAUTIFUL! New subscriber here😊

[@angelaengler2387]

And the new shed is really good looking 😍

[@kathyramos7960]

Mike take a picture of the shed and try different colors with your phone

[@elberthardy961]

It might be called a 'Loft vent' or Loft window.

[@gailsgarden]

What about a deep green for the body of the man cave and a dark purple for the trim that way it is still Mardi Gras colors but kind of almost a woodsy and manly!

[@GlendasTexasGarden]

What kind of tree is the one that looks like a multi-branch topiary, is it some type of Arborvitae? It looks really cool, I like it. 😊

[@RootyToot123]

Please, no Mardi Gras color combos. It’s already yellow so maybe a drab camel color with brown or maroon/burgundy trim? Remember you have to compliment your fantastic moon gate and keep it relevant - center stage. I am hoping this is your last whimsical building because you’re filling up your yard so quickly and pretty soon you won’t have any plants left 🥴😍 Everything so far has been fun & looks terrific (‘cept for that green on those side buildings). So good luck figuring out your color scheme - I know you will make it your own. I’ll be looking forward to seeing what you come up with. Happy Thanksgiving.

[@patdelaney191]

You've got the red chicken coop with a yellow door, so how about doing a yellow shed with a red door. I'm sure whatever you choose will be great 😊

[@crochet7169]

♥♥♥♥♥

[@greenthumbelina7331]

🤗❤❤❤

[@vivianking8143]

Have just come upon your channel, enjoying it thoroughly. What is the gray moss? hanging down from a circular something? ") Interesting. In Joy

[@moxiegardens8033]

Thank you for watching. I made these lamps in early spring. Feel free to watch the video. Those lamps are railroad ties, old metal disk that would be used to till the soil with a tractor and Spanish moss hangs from chicken wire as well as solar lights. Hope this helps.
