Readers really responded to our shed contest. We received more than 350 photos. Selecting the winners from so many imaginative, creative designs was a challenge, and our contest judges truly appreciated the many shapes, sizes, functions and styles of the sheds submitted — ranging from pretty playhouses and snug potting sheds to rustic retreats and functional craft studios. Here are the winners and their stories, and thanks to all who entered.
