I love that lavender colour. We have a different shade of cupinol and have masonary paint in the same colour. So far we have painted....gulp......a couple of hundred ( not square, length...some is six foot high, some double that) in our home and business and while I still love it and am glad we have done it I have sort of snow blindness. Really glad we didn't go for white thinking about it! We are painting the back of our house a different colour and though we have a couple of hundred feet more.


With a shed its probably less import at, but choosing a colour we really like has kept us sane!

I have had great plans for my shed for years and have made bits of it happen over time Some ideas include:

Outside:

Painted a gorgeous colour
Hanging baskets
Planters at the front
Window box
Bird/bat box
We are going to have a chalkboard section for the children

Inside:
Painted white
Hooks round the wall for tools
Desk/work space
Curtains
Insulated if using year round
Seating
Linoleum for the floor
Shelving

There are loads of good ideas if you google

I plan to paint my shed like a beach hut .... but I'll be sitting in the comfort of the house looking at it. Everything's in the house, so no point having a shed to sit in! ... the shed will be for the lawnmower, bike, empty boxes and "stuff you put in a shed".

The rest of the garden will also be "beach themed" ... with lots of shells etc, with bits/bobs being added to here and there over the years cheap/free (rather than styling it with a big chequebook and shop catalogues).
