Gaining quite a bit of popularity now that she has made her hair dressing salon, bolder and better with her 12 square meter Cabana Cabin, Lisa from Waves Hair Salon is back on the SheShed Blog almost a year later since she first opened her doors to customers! We are loving how the whole look of this Mediterranean inspired hair salon has really come together, especially the colour scheme, the now established landscaping and styling choices.
We check in with her to see how things have been since she bought her Cabana SheShed, and what sort of words of wisdom, tips and tricks she has to offer for other businesswomen who want to establish a work from home abode as well.
Based in Christchurch, best friends Amanda and Catriona decided to do create something rather spectacular! They ventured out to do something brave and independent from their very own backyard - opting for the trustworthy and spacious 3m x 4m Cabana Cabin to start their journey, and they have never looked back!
Amanda and Catriona knew they needed a dedicated space where they could essentially run a busy dog grooming business from home. The SheShed was an easy choice for them because it was a local home grown company that they wanted to support, and the competitive pricing as well as the team support really gave them ease and piece of mind.
We are so impressed with Jo-Anne and her steps towards building her own floral-farm flower business!
Based in the sunny and fruit growing region of Hawkes Bay, New Zealand, Jo-Anne decided to step out and make her love and talent for floristry into a business. She opted to go towards one of our larger cabins, the Tasman, which is 4 meters by 5 meters- making it a generous 20 square meters! She needed a lot of space dedicated to her new venture, and luckily, she had just the ideal spot in her garden nestled between the fruit trees.
"By having a dedicated space it gives me a more professional image and a clearly defined area to run my business."- Jo-Anne D
A wooden studio, perfectly perched, looking out to the vines and rolling hills of the beautiful Upper Moutere in Tasman. Lisa built her SheShed Lake Cabin as a studio next to their family home, to run her business Boho Velvet Upholstery, where she hosts regular classes, and works on divine custom furniture pieces.
"The lake cabin is a stunning building and sits perfectly on our property. People stop and tell me how beautiful it is. I'm very very blessed to have such a wonderful working space."
