41) 10×12 Beginner-friendly Barn Style Shed
While calling this 10×12 barn style shed a beginner-friendly one does not mean you do not need to challenge the carpenter inside you in order to complete this build successfully, we do appreciate the fact that the design of this shed is much less complex than many other alternatives you may come across.
Personally, I got very fond of the gravel foundation, which is one of the best options for those of you who happen to live in regions where humidity is high and/or rains are heavy, tending to cause issues with traditional wooden shed bases.
When it comes to the approximate costs of this DIY project, these are estimated at about $1500, which includes roofing, flooring, and siding. Keep in mind that this barn style shed is not the most suitable project if you are planning to accomplish it all by yourself. Some extra help from friends and family would be more than welcome.
42) 16’ x 32’ Two Story Shed
We can’t possibly refer to this 16’ x 32’ two-story shed by calling it anything less than simply excellent. This type of shed design can give you the mind-blowing 1024 square foot of extra storage space. When you first take a look at the design of this build, you may easily fall into the delusion that this is not a project you can accomplish by yourself.
However, this is entirely possible, although as Ed List) maker of this two-story shed beauty shares, he got some extra help for the hanging of the exterior plywood, setting up the roof rafters, as well as applying the house wrap.
Personally, I love the 9 foot ceilings of the garage loft as I have always felt awfully bad when having to face low ceilings being a tall person myself. On another note, one of the disadvantages of this shed is the fact no build plans are available.
43) 10 x 12 Barn Style Shed with Loft
We think this 10×12 barn style shed with loft is an excellent choice for those of you who want to maximize their storage space while not having to comply with building a wide foundation, as the charm and elegance of this shed hides in the tall height rather than big width.
This shed is 12 inches of overhang on both sides. Personally, I love the double doors as this allows you to enter and/or exit effortlessly even if you have to make room for heavy equipment, which can often be an issue if the doors of your shed are tiny in size.
Nevertheless, we think the video tutorial is simply excellent as it guides you through all the steps of the construction. Build plans are also available, so we believe this DIY shed truly deserves our team’s thumbs up, being constructed with a mind to both beginners and the more experienced DIYers.
44) 10 x 10 Mini Barn Shed
This 10 x 10 mini barn shed managed to impress us with the easy to customize design. But moreover, we find the foundation design of this shed a very smart one, which is both cost-effective and beginner-friendly. It doesn’t involve setting a gravel base with all the precise and often confusing leveling which needs to be accomplished. Instead, the base of this shed is constructed by simply digging four post holes, and then building on top of these.
The compact dimensions of this shed allow you to place the 2×6’s 12’’on center. Meanwhile, it is easy to adjust those dimensions as to match your personal preferences.
Being less than 200 square feet in its original size of 10×10, this shed is spacious on the inside and welcoming on the outside, so we cannot hide we like both of these features equally. The video tutorial guides you through all of the steps during the building process.

But on another note, we also keep into consideration the fact that constructing a shed has much more to do with your imagination than simply finding and following a particular plan step-by-step. We found tons of useful ideas in the video tutorial which shows the complete build of this pallet wood cabin shed.
Personally, I was impressed with the way the pallets have been dismantled without the use of a sawmill but only with the labor of the two dedicated DIYers who created the video. We truly believe you can find priceless ideas after exploring this wood cabin project.

More importantly, these plans can be customized to construct this ultimate wooden shed based on your personal needs. In fact, this shed is available in 10 different sizes, which is very convenient to help you check out the ones which will be the best match for you.
Personally, I love the so-called solid sheet floor which is great for storing things like shoes and lightweight equipment without spending a fortune on the floors. On another note, the roof is constructed to be thicker and stronger than most average DIYers would go for. However, if you are still novice to woodworking, we don’t think this is the best shed build plan you might be looking for.
