If you're like most people, your shed is probably a little hut in your backyard that you don't think about much—a tiny eyesore filled with rusty tools, boxes full of junk and other knick knacks. Which is why we're loving that home owners are starting to repurpose these forgotten storage spaces into something awesome: tiny bars located in their very own backyard.

If you check out readersheds.co.uk, you can see there's a huge variety of these backyard pubs based on people's personal interests.

There's this '50s-inspired diner:

It seems that the trend started over in the UK about seven years ago, and is finally making its way across the pond. And now that it's here, it seems crazy that we didn't think of this before.

After all, it's a great way to repurpose a previously useless storage space (if yours is just gathering dust and junk), an awesome venue for small get-togethers with friends, and a perfect refuge for when you and the people you live with need a few hours apart. And the best part is that it's a pretty easy and economical DIY project.
