Thinking about adding a potting shed, storage shed, studio or playhouse to your yard?  Well, the good news is that these utilitarian outbuildings can actually be attractive, functional and even eco-friendly. The following sheds are made from recycled materials:

• Greensheds offers kits for do-it-yourself homeowners across the country, as well as standard and custom sheds built on your site (in the San Francisco area).
• YardPods offers high-end prefab “rooms” available in do-it-yourself, finish-it-yourself or complete designs.
• A great alternative to a concrete base is a reuseable, recycled plastic base system called ecobase.
• When building your own shed, consider using reclaimed materials and/or FSC-certified wood (means it was harvested responsibly).
• Don’t forget to brighten up your environment with solar-powered lighting.
