Heartland Sheds partnership with hit NBC show Making It starring Amy Poehler and Nick Offerman was great exposure for the Heartland brand. The season finale featured some of the best shed makers. The two-hour Shed Hack finale on December 11, 2019 had 3.15 million viewers. The episode now lives on nbc.com for the next year and will garner much more brand exposure.

Making It Season 2 Winner
This is the second season of the Emmy Nominated show. The best makers from around the country took on a series of projects that challenge their creative skills as ‘Makers.’ In the “Shed Hack” episode the “Making It” makers completely renovated their Heartland Shed into something custom and truly one-of-a-kind. Justine’s Silva’s part work and part play’ shed design shined and was determined the winner of season 2. The NBC show makers each created a backyard escape.

The Best of the Makers
Justine out-crafted nine other contestants in a series of ‘maker’ challenges. In an interview before the season began airing, she said that her career in art began in high school. Her art teacher Ed Parker told her that while it might seem impossible, she should never feel bad about trying to make a career out of art. Her victory on ‘Making It’ just reinforces that her dream can come true.

A Heartland Shed is a place for the things you love to do. With the room to organize and the space to work, a shed can help you unleash your talent. Whatever you do, a shed can make you better at it. Maker Culture is at the epicenter of the Heartland Sheds brand. We consider every shed we sell a Maker Shed. Because our sheds are for the dreamers, the inventors, the creators … the Makers.
Justine hard at work finding the perfect blend of colors.
