Office In The Doghouse?

Okay – it’s not a doghouse. It’s a garden shed, lol. For many of our readers, working at home is something you do to be at home with the children. But there are many who have children who have gone off to school and still choose to work from home. One common issue with many moms who work at home is space. I know for many years, my office was the dining room table and whatever random drawers I found to put my papers and things in.
This garden-shed style home office idea comes from CedarSheds. The kits, which sold for $13,000, offered a usable space for a home office for less then the cost of adding on an addition to your home. The end result is beautiful, and could easily be used for a business that requires in-office client meetings.
For many work at home moms, where a business meeting involves a computer and a chat room, a simple, affordable garden shed like this 10′x10′ shed from Target (Shop at Target.com ) could very easily be converted into an office space.
One of the great things with an office like this would be that it would give you a place to “go to work”. For wahms who struggle separating life and work – this would allow you to stay home, but still “go out to work” and then “leave work to go home”.
What do you think? Have you found a unique way to make space for your home office?




Oh man these are awesome! They have tons of these in ReadyMade magazine and they always make me drool. I would love to have my own play house work house.
