I thought I would make a thread sharing my ideas and purchases so far for my new shed/run set up, and then I can update you as it all comes together (hopefully getting some paving slabs laid next week and the shed is being delivered at the end of this month).
This is the shed I have gone for, a 6x6 shiplap with windows. I am hoping to add another window to the front, and my dad is going to make an 8x6ft run which will be approx 4ft high (just below the windows) and be joined to
This is how I plan to paint the shed although my green is a little darker. I am using no nonsense garden paint in thyme and cream from screwfix
Inside, I found an off cut of faux tile vinyl flooring which is designed for bathrooms so has a pretty decent grip. I'm planning on fixing this to the shed floor before the shed is actually assembled so the sides are screwed on top on as I think this will look neater and stop them pulling up the corners. There will also be a 6x2ft shelf in the shed just below window height so the rabbits can look out.
Below are some more purchases:

Below are some more purchases:
- Litter tray (Underbed storage box from ikea)
- Hay rack (Wire basket from ikea)
- Rechargeable light (Amazon)
- Pet dome (I really think they're going to love this, being able to have a 180 degree view of the outside before they go out into their run)
- Rabbit plant pot holder (From Next, I have painted this the same green that most of the shed will be, but it is going to be stuck to the cream door and I have some nice winter pansies to go inside)
- Halford bottle holders
- Pegboard and accessories to hold treats, grooming and cleaning supplies. They like to chew the bristles of the sweeping brush so I needed a way to lift this out of their reach. The board and all the accessories are from Ikea's skadis range
