Our Tumbleweed Tiny House tour
Last week my daughter and I drove up to Sonoma, CA to visit Tumbleweed Tiny House Companyand see some tiny houses up close and personal. It was a wonderful trip and a nice reality check for me. Without ever having stood in a tiny house before, I couldn’t be 100% confident that I would feel okay about living in a small space. Now I am more sure than ever that a tiny house is the right fit for me.…

Houston, we have tiny house floor framing
Great progress on the tiny house build today. Charla joined me and we were able to get the floor framing hammered out (or screwed together, as it were). Rest assured, there were a few rookie mistakes but all and all, everything went swimmingly.
That part on top of the wheel wells? Yeah, it’s supposed to be sitting inside the frame.
We had the whole center section of the flooring measured, cut…

Is potato salad worth $38,000?
$38,000 for potato salad.
As I mentioned in the introduction to the $1 to change the world Indiegogo campaign, friends had been encouraging me for some time to start a crowdfunding campaign for my tiny house. What finally convinced me to do it was a news article I read. A man started a Kickstarter campaign to help him make potato salad for the 1st time. He raised $38,000.
I decided, if there are…

Check out my tiny house workspace!
Check out my tiny house workspace!
The two big accomplishments today were getting my new workspace all setup and organized (provided by my sponsors at All-American Design & Construction), in addition to making the fused 2x4s for the floor framing. By the way, knowing that 2×4 boards are not actually 2 inches by 4 inches is more than just a fun trivia fact. Turns out that it’s kind of crucial information when you’re trying to…

Time to make the donuts... This morning we start building the floor framing. I needed to buy corner braces, screws and a couple of tools but the wood for the framing was…
$1 to change the world - our tiny house Indiegogo campaign
I am very excited to announce that we launched a tiny house crowdfunding campaign today! The $1 to change the world campaign is on Indiegogo and we’re off to a great start. The plan is to get 25,000 people to donate one dollar. My goal is to show that every person has the power to change the world and even the smallest contribution can make a difference. We have already received $43 in the…

If I ultimately can build a tiny house, ANYONE can do it. Seriously. Anyone.
If I ultimately can build a tiny house, ANYONE can do it. Seriously. Anyone.
We set out on Monday to weld the all thread rods to the tiny house trailer. We ended the day rod-less, with many lessons learned. Requesting the trailer without the decking, turns out, not a keen move. However I went to bed with:
a much clearer understanding of what we need to do moving forward
affirmation that the building plans are confusing and give conflicting information
important…

Did we level the tiny house trailer? You KNOW this! Cheryl and I had a great time leveling the tiny house trailer this morning. Unfortunately the footage of our victorious wrap-up at the end didn't record.
Making lemonade with tiny house lemons
Okay, I was a little crestfallen about the delaying the first tiny house build day. But, thanks to middle of the night reading, contemplating, and YouTubing (I know that’s not really a word. I’m just turning YouTube into a verb), I think I’ve figured out how to make the most out of the time this weekend. Two steps I probably had not given enough consideration to are the welding of the…

Mama said there'd be days like these: no tiny house build this weekend
Mama said there’d be days like these: no tiny house build this weekend
We can’t start the tiny house build until next weekend. I haven’t been able to secure all of the materials we need and, for the cherry on top, the weather forecast now is predicting rain for Sunday. I’m feeling a little frustrating. I don’t need the whole thing finished tomorrow. I just need to feel as if we’ve at least started. Now I’m going to go feel sorry for myself for about half an…

Tiny house build step 1: trailer prep and foundation
For those who have volunteered to help with the inaugural build day for my tiny house, THANK YOU!! I was hoping to provide a definitive answer on whether or not we’re a go by now. Unfortunately I probably won’t be able to say for sure if Sunday is feasible until Friday afternoon. So here’s what I’m hoping we can do on Sunday and the lowdown on what’s going on.
The goal for the first build day…

Tiny house fieldtrip to Bliffert Lumber
Tiny house fieldtrip to Bliffert Lumber
I paid a visit to Bliffert Lumber to get a quote on materials for my tiny house. One thing became abundantly clear: it will be virtually impossible for me to get away absolutely no sort of siding treatment, whether that’s staining or painting the wood. Oh well a girl can dream…

It's July. Who wants to help me build a tiny house?!
Sometimes setbacks are truly opportunities. Ricardo of All-American Design & Construction (formerly VTX Design & Construction) told me today that the record-breaking rain of June has put them behind schedule. Consequently, they won’t be able to start work on my tiny house as scheduled. His bad news was actually a blessing in disguise.
I am so appreciative for All-American’s sponsorship and…

Tiny House Nation - new T.V. show starting this week In case you were wondering if tiny house fever is is really "a thing," wonder no more!
Louisville tiny house for $15,000 If the news is any indication, I'd say we have a clear cut case of tiny house fever these days!
MiniMotives: A Tiny House Story Macy from minimotives.com has just published an eBook on her tiny house build and experiences. Macy is pretty freaking awesome and her site offers a lot of insight on tiny house exploration.
Cooktop votes update
As it stands, the camping stove oven is slightly ahead of the Nuwave cooktop in the voting. I’ll give it a few more days for other people to vote. Although, I like the advice of one friend: get the cooktops and order pizza!
