Clean out the shed/seed starting greenhouse

Our little shed was a mess, you could not even walk into it. I spent from 10am to 2pm on it and its now all cleaened out. Im kicking myself that I did not take any "Before" pics. In our little 8 x 8 shed we have two giant skylights and two little windows with southern and eastern exposure and a long counter that runs the entire length of one wall. The shed gets so warm inside in the winter you only need a light jacket to hand out in there on sunny days. This prompted me to get it ready for a seed starting spot, I may even be able to grow greens and onions in trays all winter, its fun to experiment anyway ; ) For the windows I will sew some curtains out of some cute fabric that has seed packet images on it, this was an estate sale purchase a few months ago and I have not known what to do with it. Update on the row cover winter crops: I peeked out there today and there are no little sprouts under there yet so I watered again and closed it all back up.
