We need a new woodshed at our cottage, but instead of buying new materials, we upcycled what we could find for free β including a roof made from old bedsheets, inspired by traditional oilcloth! πΏβ»οΈ In this video, we take you through the full process of building a low-cost, sustainable firewood storage shed, using reclaimed wood, pallets, old cloth sheets, and a bit of DIY creativity.
Join us as we tackle this eco-friendly project, share our challenges, and show you how you can build something useful for free (or very cheap!) with a bit of resourcefulness, experimentation and a lot of stupidity!
