Obviously the chicken shed has made a massive difference because the girls now go to bed on their own and we are not so tied but the other shed has made a major difference too.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s not only opened up a lovely area where we will be able to sit but it has now got much of the stuff from our work cabin\/kitchen, that we only use occasionally, stored in it. This in turn has created more storage space in our cabin so we have now moved our collection of vintage crockery into this space.<\/p>\n<p>Before we had no where to store it so it was in boxes under the spare beds which was far from ideal! It meant lugging it up and down the stairs when ever we used it.<\/p>\n<p>We now have a wedding, afternoon tea, for one hundred and fifty people booked in December with our vintage crockery and the couple are visiting us next weekend to view it. It would hardly have looked professional to tell them it was stored under our spare beds.<\/p>\n<p>Now we can take them out to our cabin and show them plus we can wash it up and store it without transporting it. This feels like a new beginning for us.<\/p>\n<p>We have finished with our standard, heavy, crockery which has gone and now only have lovely, pretty, light, vintage crockery.<\/p>\n<p>We had enough for one hundred and thirty people but since the wedding booking we have been out at weekends buying more and have now topped it up to enough for one hundred and fifty people which should be the largest number we will ever need.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_11939\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/SDC16558.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-11939\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11939\" src=\"http:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/SDC16558.jpg\" alt=\"Our vintage crockery is now stored in these cupboards\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/SDC16558.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/SDC16558-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-11939\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Our vintage crockery is now stored in these cupboards<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_11940\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/SDC16563.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-11940\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11940\" src=\"http:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/SDC16563.jpg\" alt=\"I have taken some lids off to show the crockery\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/SDC16563.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/SDC16563-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-11940\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">I have taken some lids off to show the crockery<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_11941\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/SDC16559.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-11941\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11941\" src=\"http:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/SDC16559.jpg\" alt=\"Close up of crockery in boxes\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/SDC16559.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/SDC16559-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-11941\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Close up of crockery in boxes<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_11943\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/SDC16560.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-11943\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11943\" src=\"http:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/SDC16560.jpg\" alt=\"The shed has now been reorganised \" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/SDC16560.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/SDC16560-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-11943\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The shed has now been reorganised<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_11942\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/SDC16562.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-11942\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11942\" src=\"http:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/SDC16562.jpg\" alt=\"t\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/SDC16562.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/SDC16562-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-11942\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The patio area has been jet washed and we have put up the plant pot holders that used to be in the chicken run<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The plants in the chicken run were tricky to keep watered and were collecting dust so we took them out.
