My family has been cooperatively working on building a tiny house for my sister over the past five years. I know it sounds like a long time but we could only do 4-5 weekends of work every year due to how far away I live. And then covid. The trailer and frame (with roof installed and sub siding, but no windows or anything else installed) came from Tumbleweed back when they sold the Barn Raiser unfinished tiny homes. We took on all of the labor ourselves though we did hire an electrician and then a spray-foam installer. My mom even made the cushions and drapes! All in all my sister is super pleased with how it came out and will be towing it to it's new home this fall. My cat (the black one in the photos) is going to be sad to see it go.

Xenia Harley: That's the nice thing about a smaller house. I moved almost three years ago and went with a 780 sq ft house. I have ten acres and a barn for my horses, and really, in ten or so years, it will be paid off!

Ashara Love: Love the counters. I'm going to go with all bamboo, unless the wood is reclaimed. But yours is GORGEOUS. I love the shape and curve.

xolitaire: Yeah, it looks nice. But practicality is 0. My mother lives in a very small house that was built for one person - and her kitchen is similar to this one. The way these tiny kitchens are designed is terrible, there is literally not enough free work surface for anything because the appliances eat up all the space.

Nora12: It is cute on the outside, but less cute inside (they are just using it as a shed) but it would be cool to see someone remodel the interior http://artofgardeningbuffalo.blogspot.com/2016/07/a-tour-inside-taj-ma-shed.html
