Not sure why all the image links died... Final progress pics and before and after in my latest reponse



Here is the back part of my yard. Sick of the eyesore that is my neighbor's shed, but it provides a good amount of shade, so I'm gonna fix it up and build a patio.



Got started on the patio, dug up some dirt




And a lot more dirt (if anyone in wants some dirt rjl2td@gmail.com)





Got the gravel put in. All that's left is to tamp, put down sand and arse the pavers, then paint up the shed!

So you are going to paint a mural on this thing or what?

Can you legally paint someone else's shed like that?

Good looking dog there. Is he a good boy?

Legit idea. I'd do it just to troll the neighbors.

Got the pavers down finally after a SNAFU with the delivery.

All that's left to do is cut pavers around the tree, put in the paver edging, put poly sand over the top, and paint the eyesore.

Pretty damn proud of myself for doing all this by hand.

Final before an after. Got the shed painted, fake window up



First coat of paint. Scrubbed all the rust down with a wire brush



Fake window. Made it out of 1x with some half lap joints then sanded an thin acrylic sheet to achieve the frosted look (to cover the shed window without taking his natural light)



Painted my steps with matching colors. need to touch up the white still.





Damn glad to be done
