Handyman Magazine,DIY, 7 Epic Backyard Cabins From Around the Web
Epic Backyard Cabins

We love backyard cabins here at Handyman magazine. They are a great way to add extra living space without having to renovate the main house, they are cost effective and are just plain cool. We like cabins so much we started a board on Pinterest aptly named: Awesome Backyard Cabins.

Here are seven of the best cabins (also known as granny flats and sheds) we’ve come across. Check out our Pinterest boards to see more and be sure to follow us so you don’t miss future pins.
