Woodstores 6 x 6 log store

I love the way our customer has added lights to their log store. There is a tiny little sensible bit of me is thinking that the trailing plant growing across will make it hard to retreat the roof every year, but it is outweighed by how this is going to look so pretty in the summer with the flowers and lights so I'm ignoring it.

Different roof styles on our log stores.

Pent, apex, arbour, forward, backwards, as long as the structure itself is strong and sound you can pretty much have whichever roof style you prefer. We have used lead, tiles, cedar overlap, and even an almost flat roof where it is being used for a living roof log store. Check out the gallery at Woodstores website.

Colours for your log store


It is fair to say that most of the log stores in our gallery on the website are Blackfriars light brown. The variations in how they look are I think due to what time of year and what time of day they are taken.
These are pretty close to the actual colour, but, as screen monitors can make colours look different, it may not be shown to you as exactly the same colour!


Dark Brown (Blackfriar Goldstar)
Cedar (Blackfriar)
Light Brown (Blackfriar)
There are other colours available in different makes, for example Sadolin Classic. I would say that most colour charts usually show the colours as darker than they actually come out, but Sadolin is a nice oil stain so the wood grain still shows. You can see the colour chart here, and you can request a sample pot from them to check a colour out (it says allow up to 4 weeks but they are much quicker than that).

Garden Seat

The new Apex log store has been adapted! We have had two orders where they want a seat added, to use as a sort of Arbour garden seating! They can probably use it to store logs in the winter too, and I suspect it might be a nice seat for smokers with a bit of shelter :) Photos to come, we are still busy making them! They will be like this one but with a wooden seat put in.

Living Roof Wood Stores

We have been very busy making wood stores, many being bespoke, and have delivered them to some very beautiful places. And it hasn't been just log stores that we have been busy with, for example this pretty log store with a living roof!

 I suggested to another customer who had already bought a log store from us and wanted a bin store to match, that perhaps we could put a living roof on. This is the end result, and as you can see she has made it look beautiful.

Of course this could also be used as a log store, or even for general garden storage.
