Relaxation Station
We designed this simple garden structure to be customizable for pursuing your favorite hobbies, entertaining, or just relaxing. In this version, a two-person chaise lounge, outdoor fabric curtain panels and roof offer a shady garden retreat for reading—or napping!
Just in time for spring/summer, build this outdoor space in a weekend with the help of this step-by-step guide from diyideas.com. The uses for an outdoor space like this is endless, and the blueprint for building these structures is at a beginners level, so you can make it your first wood building project. The cost of this project is around $1,200 if you use concrete footings, which uses 20 bags of ready-mix concrete that weigh 80 lbs each. If you have wood building skills or successfully complete this project, you could make some money building it for neighbors or friends. Below are different design ideas for this outdoor structure.

Potting Shed
Topped with a corrugated aluminum roof, the structure becomes a more substantial garden structure, suitable for potting and puttering. Because the roof can catch the wind, it's best to anchor the structure to concrete footings.

Backyard Bistro
Festooned with sheer outdoor fabric panels (even the tassels are weather-resistant), the structure transforms into a backyard dining spot for four. A candle chandelier, hung low over the table, adds another layer of charm to the structure.
