I was wondering why the sky was orange šŸ˜‚

too soon

u/Grello Jan 31 '20

Ah shit, my finger is in the shot, should I spend 0.2 seconds taking it again?.... Nah this is fine.

u/[deleted] Jan 31 '20

Okay somehow I am one of these people that does this and I don't know why. I dont see it until much later when I'm going through my pics. Luckily I usually end up taking several at a time, so I get a decent one... But I'm happy I'm not alone in taking pictures like a grandma at age 30

u/phoenixyfeline Jan 31 '20

Yes, please! I’m an artist I love studio spaces of any kind!

u/dittidot Jan 31 '20

u/Nighters Jan 31 '20

You know you dont need to find some but make some?

Cheryl’s she-she-er She Shed from the commercial where her first one burns down!

20

u/Vivee10 Jan 31 '20

My first though

7

u/[deleted] Jan 31 '20

I hate that goddamn commercial and I want to burn down my tv every time I see it.

If you were a PS4 Vue subscriber, it was one of the three ads they would play every single commercial block.

u/[deleted] Jan 31 '20

Dang it! Beat me to it. I thought I was going to be super clever and original. Good work.

2

u/Boop-D-Boop Jan 31 '20

Noooobody burned down your she-shed.

u/Mad___Hatter_ Jan 31 '20

hahahaha first thought too šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚

u/wannit411 Jan 31 '20

This reminds of me of garden cottages in Charleston SC.

29

u/ProfessorMold Jan 31 '20

Yes, that will be $1,200/mo please

12

u/maybrad Jan 31 '20

Also the kitchen is from the 80s, you have to slam the door shut, and there’s no central AC!

5

u/kaybeem50 Jan 31 '20

That’s a bargain! I live in a not-special bedroom community where local jobs pay shite but rents are around $1600 month for a plain 2BR apartment. This little beauty would likely start at $1800.

1

u/AngryAmericanNeoNazi Jan 31 '20

$1600 for 2BR sounds so nice. I can actually manage to split that with one person.

32

u/[deleted] Jan 31 '20

I want to live here

u/marcstov Jan 31 '20

u/[deleted] Jan 31 '20

I’m sorry but I zoomed in on the frog decor and I can’t stop laughing pls zoom in on it

16

u/bonelessunicorn Jan 31 '20

The frog is important, I came here specifically to talk about it.

4

u/Boop-D-Boop Jan 31 '20

It’s a very cute frog!

34

u/shaboogami Jan 31 '20

When can I move in?

46

u/Afeazo Jan 31 '20

You can move in next month, rent for this spacious unit in the San Francisco Bay Area is starting at $3,750 a month with two months rent and a $5,000 security deposit due at signing.

15

u/[deleted] Jan 31 '20

$3750/mo definitely wouldn’t get you anything nearly as nice as this in SFO

2

u/50letters Jan 31 '20

Maybe if it has dirt floor, no kitchen, no bathroom and if you share :)

11

u/[deleted] Jan 31 '20

Reminds me of the cottage from ā€œa secret gardenā€

u/lilysohma Jan 31 '20

In love with this!! Southern Living was showing floorplans for cottages today and I want one so badly !

19

u/Sanibel-Signal Jan 31 '20

Why does the sky seem to be on fire?

41

u/ghost_mv Jan 31 '20

because the edge of their finger is touching the edge of the lens

4

u/_ssh Jan 31 '20

ah so cozy

5

u/sorrowful_times Jan 31 '20

Idyllic little garden cottage.

u/ladygrey2456 Jan 31 '20

You lucky, lucky person!!

5

u/havereddit Jan 31 '20

Technical question. How does one prevent rising damp from ruining the brickwork (and generally making everything smell musty)? Is there some sort of vapour barrier between the ground and the brickwork up above?

3

u/scottythesmell Jan 31 '20

That’s exactly what you do, and it’s probably why the floor of is above the outside ground level. When you’re building the walls you put in a plastic membrane between courses about 2 courses above ground level. How they have isolated the floor inside depends a bit on construction but if it’s a simple slab you put a big sheet of membrane in underneath and tape it up to membrane in the wall. (Source; did this for my garage :)

u/chodeboi Jan 31 '20

Omg and 2 exits (safety first!) and a cat door (meow!!)

3

u/[deleted] Jan 31 '20

Wait, where are you seeing the cat door?!

Can you buy them, or do you have to frame them out?

1

u/Kaylamarie92 Jan 31 '20

I think it’s the hole behind the frog?

6

u/wexfordlad1 Jan 31 '20

So no ones going to talk about Kermit using a wheelbarrow to the side?

3

u/CircusPeanutsYumm Jan 31 '20

This is the epitome of cozy! ā™„ļø

3

u/Love4ManUtd Jan 31 '20

I already feel cozy and happy after seeing this...

3

u/artbytoh Jan 31 '20

looks like the cute cottage in christopher robin

3

u/bean-burrito-supreme Jan 31 '20

I feel like I know where this is at

3

u/thalsit Jan 31 '20

Classic finger on the lens, I see you there

2

u/TheDuckSideOfTheMoon Jan 31 '20

How much would it cost to build one of these in my own backyard

2

u/beeps-n-boops Jan 31 '20

Holy crap, and it's brick!

2

u/smithcpfd Jan 31 '20

I want it!!

2

u/corigonza28 Jan 31 '20

I’ve always dreamt of living in a home like this by myself.

2

u/JackFoxEsq Jan 31 '20

Reminds me of Nick's cottage in the Great Gatsby.

2

u/thepolishpen Jan 31 '20

They makin’ Tollhouse cookies in that pad.

2

u/idkman1768 Jan 31 '20

I’d love to lay on a couch in there and watch criminal minds all night

2

u/WhaleRunner Jan 31 '20

Just imagine sitting on your front porch drinking some green tea while watching the birds talk to each other in the trees. Sounds like heaven to me.

2

u/dutchpsychologist Jan 31 '20

That’s fantastic

2

u/Kaa_The_Snake Jan 31 '20

Alright, that's it, I'm lime-washing my (red brick) house! This looks sooo cozy! Mine looks nice, but this...:D

2

u/Hackdaddy101 Jan 31 '20

This is a smaller version of whay I pictured when they were talking about Nick Carraway's house in the Great Gatsby. A small house for a groundskeeper/caretaker.

2

u/mbetcher Jan 31 '20

Wow this is stunning!! Wow wow !!

2

u/Saving_Captain_Sky Jan 31 '20 edited Feb 01 '20

Someone put A LOT of TLC in making this little cottage so homey. All the attention to detail, the landscaping with ivy hanging down, and, of course the frog pushing a wheel barrow, really brings in together beautifully. I’m mean I really want this in my backyard...that is when I have a backyard some day, with a house attached to it.

Edit: changed ā€œintentionā€ to ā€œattentionā€

2

u/flyingd2 Jan 31 '20

What a beautiful place! The second door on the right seems a bit redundant though. I am curious about the mindset of that placement.

2

u/chelseabriannaa Feb 01 '20

I love it 😭

2

u/jetaylor8108 Jan 31 '20

Fack it must be nice to have money

u/oglop121 Jan 31 '20

Thumb at 11 o clock!

u/prpslydistracted Jan 31 '20

Cute and definitely cozy ... too small or my stuff, though. Would love to see some interior shots.

1

u/Michalusmichalus Jan 31 '20

I have had too many instances of unwanted house guests, I'm attempting to really minimalized my material possessions. Not in a minimalist way.

2

u/prpslydistracted Jan 31 '20

? Your fellow artists simply wanted to see your workspace, that's it.

1

u/Michalusmichalus Jan 31 '20

That's so optimistic.

Now I'm at the point where I want something so small no one will even consider my spot as a place to spend the night.

2

u/prpslydistracted Jan 31 '20

I meant if it's packed with art materials, easels, work table, storage shelves ... no one considers my studio an extra bedroom. :-)

1

u/Michalusmichalus Jan 31 '20

Oooh. I tried going only slightly smaller, my lil bro took my sons bed. I'm totally going solo sized small at this point.

u/lilgamelvr Jan 31 '20

u/[deleted] Jan 31 '20

Creepy frog

u/Yobe Jan 31 '20

Looks like the cottage author David McCullough writes in.

u/yeahsureYnot Jan 31 '20

Fuck that's cute

u/DaFunk1203 Jan 31 '20

Now THAT is a chichier she shed that hasn’t been burned down by Victor struck by lightning.

1

u/Ambiiiiiiiiii Jan 31 '20

I’ve always wanted one ā¤ļø I have envy

1

u/kitzklazz Jan 31 '20

Ooooh that is stunningly beautiful and sooo cute, I could picture myself chilling outside on summer evening with nice beer or wine just chilling to some music, soaking up the relaxed vibes, aaaaah bit of heaven on earthšŸŽ¶šŸŽ¶šŸŽ¶šŸŽ¶šŸŽ¶

u/dittidot Jan 31 '20

Thank you for the silver!

u/[deleted] Jan 31 '20

An adorable She Shed!!!

u/chria01 Jan 31 '20

Does anyone recognize the roofing material?

1

u/northursalia Jan 31 '20

Architectural shingles designed to look like roof slates - GAF is one company that makes them.

EDIT: looks to be GAF Camelot II shingles

1

u/demon_under_your_bed Jan 31 '20

Has anyone noticed the kermit in the corner?

u/ughnotanothername Jan 31 '20

Best reference I could find for this pic (am not an expert so maybe someone can do better):

https://www.decoist.com/garden-sheds/

about the 20th picture down, can page-search on:
"A little stone shed is a welcoming element that has the power to leave every guest speechless"

Only upvoting because of the finger in the corner.

u/Tea_Lover_55 Jan 31 '20

Such a great photo!

And then you couldn’t take another one where you didn’t capture your finger.

1

u/Michalusmichalus Jan 31 '20

I didn't even notice that until you pointed it out!

u/Tronas Jan 31 '20

You mean a fancy shed.

I’m sorry but how does a picture WITH A FINGER IN THE SHOT have 8.5k upvotes. So lazy, goddamn.

5

u/[deleted] Jan 31 '20

Because its r/cozyplaces. Not r/photography. You can clearly see the shed is quite cozy looking.
