Dad Brag/Floor Bed
I’d like to take a moment to brag on my dear dad who’s somehow always up for a project. Last year, I started wondering about toddler beds and when to switch over from a crib. That led me down the internet rabbit hole to the idea of Montessori floor beds, which I tried in two versions. After completely baby-proofing her room, I opted for…
My Little House
I’d like to back up a few years and reboot my blogging journey with a slightly larger wee house. After I sold my tiny house, I purchased a 1,000 square foot single family home in my town. It has 2 official bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, a large unfinished basement, bonus room/potential 3rd bedroom, and sits on a quarter of an acre. My then boyfriend and I…
Hey strangers!
I’m baaaaaaack! Well, sort of. Life has been a crazy ride the last couple years but I’m finally at a point that I can get back into keeping up with my beloved tiny house blog. So what’s been going on? I bought a small house (on a foundation) and have been renovating that. Got married, had a kid, separated, and working full-time for a…
Tiny House Survey for Thesis
Hi everyone! As you know, my thesis involved tiny houses and I have a soft spot for other tiny house educational projects. Here’s a survey for someone else’s thesis that I’d really encourage you to take to help her meet her participant goal. It’ll only take a few minutes and will have a big impact for her thesis. Thanks! Take survey!
Small is Beautiful: A Tiny House Documentary
Good morning, tiny people! I had the recent honor of watching an advanced screener of a new tiny house film: Small is Beautiful: A Tiny House Documentary. …Wow… We tiny house lovers have a tendency to romanticize tiny house living, but you won’t find that in this film. Small is Beautiful takes us on a realistic journey into both the pros and cons of…
Tiny House Name Registry
There’s a newer tiny house site on the block that I’d like to give a shout out to, because it’s a very interesting idea. The Tiny House Name Registry is a place to register your tiny house name (think of tiny house names like boat names, only likely less bizarre.) If you are planning a TH, already building one, or have a completed TH…
Tiny House Survey – NEW!
Hi everyone! You may remember the tiny house survey from about 2 years ago and I am excited to share a new and improved one with you. There are a few more questions and this version goes much more in-depth about lifestyles and life stages. It’s not just for people living in a tiny house, but also for those who are just in the…
Tiny Homes 2015 Calendar!
I am so happy to announce that we have a 2015 calendar featuring some beautiful tiny homes. You can get 8.5 x 11 or 11 x 14 (longer when it’s open on the wall of course) and I am excited to be able to look at each month’s photo(s) and daydream about the tiny house lifestyle. This is a great gift for that tiny…
Dream of Mortgage Freedom?
Do you dream of mortgage freedom? I sure do. Luckily the Tiny House Family offers an e-course called The Plan: Your Pathway to Mortgage-freedom. It’s a five-week online course designed to lead you through the process of redesigning your life so that you can live on your terms and not the terms of a mortgage. You’ll develop a plan (and put it in action!) based on…
Tiny House Chat Podcasts
Macy Miller of minimotives and Ryan Mitchell of The Tiny Life and The Tiny House Conference have started a podcast about tiny houses! I’m especially excited because Tiny r(E)volution is on hiatus, so now I can get a tiny podcast fix. There are 2 podcasts on the site right now. The first is an introduction and the second is about tiny house codes. Check…
