What do you do with ugly outbuildings?  Cover ‘em with slab lumber for a very nice rustic look. 

A couple of shacks out back….ummm..what can be done with them to improve the appearance so the eye sore goes away.  Answer – slab lumber from the lumber mill used as siding not fire wood. A few screws & my handy dandy screw gun & I transformed these ugly little out building into rustic beauties. My nephew Tyler Golka was a great help in finishing off the job. Spring 2007.

Slab Wood from the lumber mill is the outside slice of the log.  Normally I use this for firewood but it sure came in handy for these little storage outbuildings.

These are the Before Pictures:

All it took was a week end, screws and screw gun; a hammer and saw for the transformation.

Each evening, we had a lovely campfire (bonfire) to burn the leftovers, enjoyed a few colds ones and enjoyed the transformation.
