Chrissy's Backyard Oasis
Our customer Chrissy from North Carolina WOWED us with her STUNNING shed transformation of an Old Hickory utility shed into a beautiful backyard oasis!
“I am a resin artist that makes handcrafted ABC magnets for toddlers to learn with and parents to enjoy esthetically in their home. With a growing business, I needed an inspiring separate space outside of our home to work and create in.
I designed my 12×12 shed with many windows so I could work in natural light. My first task was to wire for electricity, then add insulation and drywall. Next, I hung a Japanese mural that would be the centerpiece for my Japandi-style interior. This feature, coupled with the intentional high loft, minimal furniture, and neutral tones, opened up the space to make it look and feel much larger than it is. Last was the floor. Resin can be messy, so I opted to keep the floor as is and painted a lime wash over it, which created a beautiful finishing touch to the room.”
English Creek Hideaway
Get into this glamping experience with a customer’s romantic stay lodge in East Tennessee. Our friends over at The English Creek Hideaway have transformed our LOFTED BARN into a cottage-styled chalet where guests are cozy, comfortable, and immersed in the nature surrounding it. The featured customization and intricate details of this barn goes beyond our wildest dreams!
“My husband and I, at English Creek Hideaway, have converted Old Hickory Buildings into Tiny Home Glamping Vacation Rentals! We researched a ton and Old Hickory had the best product that we felt would have the ultimate glamping experience for guests! These buildings have provided wonderful memories for over 100 couples and families in the last 6 months and that is such a wonderful feeling.”
The Lakeside Bar
How cool is this SINGLE SLOPE SHED turned bar by the lake! This customer also added an 8” GARAGE DOOR with a half-length frame out to better serve their guests over the counter and a room for extra storage space. And let’s not forget to mention the awesome treated wood deck and interior finishings! What an excellent and creative use of space.
“Our single slope shed was purposely built to replace a flood damaged garage. We designed it to accommodate our entertaining lifestyle on the lake, and to allow some storage space for bikes and yard tools. Our Old Hickory bar/shed has been the focal point of many celebrations and has become the go to spot for our neighbors and friends to gather for UFC fight nights.”

“We had a great experience from the moment we purchased the building to when it was delivered. We planned to make it into a guest house at our cabin property. It’s not finished yet as it needs some trim work, but we will do that next year.”

The Tiny Home
Get a load of this extra wide SINGLE SLOPE SHED with an added deck and screen room! Josh went all out in transforming his Old Hickory Shed into a cozy, little outdoor oasis. From self-installed slide doors to interior lap siding, we are amazed at these finishings and we’re loving’ this off-the-grid lifestyle.
“We loved the idea of going small and minimizing our life, and our stuff. We started a large garden and have spent a lot more time outdoors since building our tiny home. It’s opened our eyes to how important time is, rather than material things. And a person can live with much less than they think.”
The Backyard Bender
One of our most dedicated customers out of Minnesota really outdid himself with his SIDE-UTILITY SHED transformed into a backyard bar and lounge among a stunning deck area. What an awesome way to grill out on the patio and entertain guests while watching the sunset on a sweet summer day. His purchase also included our SHED DORMER PACKAGE for a classy, modern feel on the exterior.
“The delivery and installation were awesome. I was amazed that only one guy showed up to drop it off. He maneuvered the shed into my backyard and leveled it out with no problems. And then it was up to me to turn it into the establishment that has brought friends and family together.”
