Painting a summerhouse and a shed

Hi everyone,
Sorry I've been so long, this thread is long overdue an update. We've been getting all sorts of DIY done over the past 6 weeks or so. One of those jobs was the summer house and shed which I'm happy to say are now pretty much done :j
The job list has been:-
Paint both the shed and summer house
-
Re-roof both the shed and summer house
-
Replace the acrylic windows in the shed
-
Tidy the shed....
Other non-shed jobs have also been completed, I've spent today painting the garden gate (Need a new one next year I think but a new coat of paint might paper over the cracks for a while;))
It's been a long job but I'm really happy with the results. Goes without saying we've saved a fortune compared to either replacing the buildings or paying a tradesman to undertake the work. I've treated myself to a new lawn mower with the cash I've saved:D
Here are the before and after pics:
