I transformed my run-down shed into a dream office for $2,500. It turned out even better than I could've imagined.

I renovated my run-down shed into my dream office space.

• Last year, I transformed my run-down shed into a dream office space.
• I completed the majority of the renovations myself over a month and a half, and spent about $2,500.
• I'm so happy with the space and how it's helped improve my work-life balance.

I'll be straight with you: My house is tiny. Charming, yes, but with two adults, two large dogs, and the hope of a future child, "cozy"...
