Hello,
Tucked behind The Shabby House in Boise, a small garden shed has been magically transformed into a charming winter hideaway. As you enter the shed, concrete blocks lead the way to an inviting daybed piled high with fluffy white linens and a warm fur blanket to wrap yourself up in. If you get too cold, you can pull the curtains back and have a sip of brandy from the silver liquor decanter. It's the perfect spot to daydream, read, or recharge your batteries after a long winter.
My sisters and I had a similar hideout in our backyard in Spokane that my Father built out of sturdy wood beams. It had a ladder that led up to a rooftop deck hidden high up in the pine trees. Many summer nights we slept under the stars in our comfy sleeping bags reading Nancy Drew by flashlight and watching for the elusive shooting star while our faithful dog, Tutti, patrolled the yard-keeping bad guys at bay.
If you don't have your own secret hideaway, I suggest you look around for a small spot in the garden or a lounge chair in front of a sunny window or warm fireplace where you can daydream and recharge your own batteries!
I hope these pics inspire you to create your own special spot.
