Graham and Sarah Anderson???s stylish outside shed which functions as the couple's office, they have entered it into Cuprinol Shed of the Year 2024. Release date July 25 2024. Meet the man who is vying for the Shed of the Year title after turning his old strawberry patch into a ??12k summer work cabin using recycled materials. Graham Anderson, 35, and wife Rachel, 34, decided that with four little ones running round they needed more space to work from than the bedroom they were sharing at the time. The couple - both architects - set about designing and transforming their unused patch of land at the bottom of their garden into a vibrant garden room, designed and constructed as a home office to free up the bedroom they were previously using. Graham, alongside his father-in-law, also called Graham, spent the next year constructing and building their new hub.

We built our posh shed office using stuff from the skip and saved £23,000

Content creator, Beckie Ann Galentine, 33, has a love for all things paranormal and has filled her home with endless spooky/historic artefacts from antique shops and auctions. A woman lives in the 'world's spookiest home' - full of haunted historic artefacts - including 'cursed' dolls, old gravestones and children's coffins. Beckie-Ann Galentine, 33, grew up living above an antique store to antique dealer parents. It gave her a taste for historic items but she was drawn to a more "macabre" side of things - including creepy old pictures and coffins. Over the last 10 years Beckie-Ann has collected hundreds of 'haunted' items which she has used to decorate her entire home. These include 'cursed' dolls and even a bag of children's TEETH. The home itself is a historic 1900's house - where she lives with partner and fellow paranormal enthusiast, Josh Rawson, 32.

Celene Francis, 25, started renting her council house in 2020 and has renovated the property to make it more of a home. When she moved in, the mum of one, said the house was in such a dire condition with plaster all over the floor, yellow ceilings and wallpaper peeling off the wall.
