About This Video

I spent six whole months documenting the not-so-glamorous (but honestly kind of satisfying) process of building my dream backyard office—aka my she shed—so I could have a real, functional workspace for my crochet plushie studio and small business life. In this vlog, I walk you through everything from the very beginning: going to City Hall to deal with permits, figuring out zoning realities, planning the layout, and prepping the site so the shed could actually be delivered without turning my yard into a full-blown disaster scene. This isn’t just a “cute reveal” video. I’m sharing the real decisions, the delays, and the little lessons you only learn while you’re in it—like what I wish I’d known earlier, what took longer than expected, and what mattered most when I was planning a workspace that has to function for filming, packing orders, and general yarn chaos. By the end, you’ll see the shed delivered and the full exterior process complete—then I’m taking you with me into the next phase, where we shop for furniture and finishings and start turning it into the cozy creative studio I’ve been dreaming about.
