Some great entries for Shed of the year 2010 over at www.readersheds.co.uk , many thanks Sheddies for all your hard work and thanks to the public who voted for you and your sheds
also a very big thanks to our sponsors Cuprinol for their support in the run up to shed week and of course providing the £1000 prize one of these great sheddies will win.
This year has been as hard fought as ever, and I think sheddies using the cannon of social media (twitter, facebook) seem to have help their shed cause, so I wont say this is the Social Media Shed of the year, as I won’t copy the election & world cup 🙂
This years category winners are in no particular order, but later in the week I will list the top three in each category, once things have calmed down and all the winning category sheddies have got in contact me with.
Once our judges have made up their minds from this amazing bunch of sheds, the Shed of the year winner will be announced during Shed Week 2010 (which starts 5th July)

Well?
I can't believe it, I didn't win? How did that happen?
Maybe we are all thinking that. Cos we love our sheds.
I've already won cos my shed has given me so much more than one would expect from a 'shed'
I suspect many of us have discovered that also
COULDN'T AGREE WITH YOU MORE MIKE, NEEDS TO BE A FOLLOW UP BLOG ON THE OTHER SHEDS THAT MADE IT INTO THE TOP 5
Good luck to you all From Marie at pebbleHideaway, there are so many wonderful sheds everyone has a worthy winner! and is a Winner! Whatever may happen we all know one thing.."We Love Our Sheds"__Good Luck…
I LOVE the pirate shed! Never seen anything like it. A lot of good sheds this year but this ones my favourite!
Thanks sheddies a great response this year…. and good luck all the finalists in the Shed of the year.
These guys all put my garden shed to shame, I think it needs far more than a re-stain. I want one of those Eco Pods!
