Sheds with finished interior

The inside of your shed is finished with smooth milled wood and smells like a fresh conifer forest. Due to the unique construction type, there is no exposed framing that needs drywall or other finish. You can move in immediately! Stain your shed interior for a splash of color or white-wash for a modern designer look. Turn it into a garden shed, home office, workshop, playhouse, art studio, or anything you can imagine.
Shed care and personalization

Your shed is made of natural wood! Easily personalize it and set up to fit your needs and style. Paint or stain the outside to protect the wood. Paint and polyurethane are wonderful options in harsher climates (think torrential rains, etc.), and exterior wood stain works well in gentler climates.

It's made of solid wood, thus you can modify it as needed to run conduits for electrical and insulate the roof and/or floor to make it energy efficient. It's incredibly versatile!
Easy to assemble DIY shed kit

All our models are designed as do-it-yourself shed kits with easy-to-follow manuals and step-by-step video instructions - it s not just easy but also a fun DIY project.
To begin, your shed needs a level and firm base for a foundation to stay upright for the years to come. Then, only basic tools are needed, and it takes a weekend to assemble a gorgeous natural wood shed kit. If you have any technical questions, folks at customer support are a phenomenal help!
Long lasting wood garden sheds

We use only FSC-certified Norway Spruce lumber, which is well-known for its durability and strength compared to Southern Pine. Buildings around Eastern Europe and Scandinavia made from this wood still stand 200 years later.
These tough little sheds withstand winds up to 75 mph and hold a foot of snow without any reinforcements. Since they are made of real wood, you can make needed modifications in harsher environments. Fun fact - our sheds are "self-adjusting" in some sense, and do well in small earthquakes!
You are in great hands

Our customer service, pre-sale and post-purchase, is exceptional, and our reviews prove it. You always communicate with genuine and friendly humans based in the US with expert know-how of the sheds and their construction.
Our family-owned mill is located in the heart of Lithuania, and has been operating since 1996, manufacturing beautifull sheds, cabins, pool houses and other storage and alternative living solutions for customers all around Europe and Scandinavia. In 2009 we introduced our quality sheds to the US where our customers continue to appreciate the superior craftsmanship and great design.
Nontocxic eco-friendly sheds

Our shed kits are made of 100% natural, FSC-certified wood and are not treated with toxic preservatives. Raw wood ensures a safe and eco-friendly environment for people and other living beings. Most shed makers use engineered wood materials that contain huge concentrations of formaldehyde and are toxic to you and the environment. These materials are not meant for our living spaces.
It takes approximately one mature tree to make a 10'x10' shed. To offset the impact, we give 25 times more to nature by planting 25 trees in your name for each purchase made.

What our customers say

Finished and love it!!!!

“I absolutely love my new studio! I am thrilled with it. Amazing quality and it makes me smile every time I walk into it. It’s perfect!!!"

‒ Caroline Hall
Outstanding product from top to bottom

“The wood is top-notch and really well crafted—the doors and windows feel super solid and sturdy. Putting it together was a breeze thanks to the clear instructions and all the parts being there—no surprises or fixes needed. It arrived quickly, and the team was great about answering all my questions honestly and promptly. In the end, it looks amazing—like a custom build that would’ve cost three times more. It’s nothing like those generic kits from big-box stores. Easily a five-star experience—would definitely recommend!"

‒ Tony P.
We Love Our Shed!

“We purchased a Whales 10x10 in 2014 and love it. It went together like a dream, and we have appreciated the storage it has lent us over these past years. Once the shed was completed, roofed, and painted, with window boxes added, my 97 year old mother said she wanted to live in it!”

‒ Dennis and Maureen Glynn
An important place of our home

“I want to let you know how much we love our shed. Now 3 + years after ordering it has become a very important place for us, an extension of the house. An office, art studio, dining room, and cozy place to take in the weather, it is a place to talk. Everyone that sees the shed wants one. I have shown it to multipal interested people whom I do not even know. I also want to congratulate you for inventing and producing such a brilliant and importaint product. It has made our living space much better."

‒ Kevin Harris
