Great Example of a Tiny House
People all over the nation (and many places abroad) are opting against or giving up their unnecessarily huge houses (and mortgage payments) to be able to live a debt free and sustainable lifestyle.
Now my take on it is a little different than what the people at the link below have done, but not by much. I like the idea of smaller, easily maintained domiciles, however I think the below 100 sq. ft. cabins on trailers would be too much of a stretch for me (although I wouldn't require much more.)
But have a look at what the Rowdy Kittens have done with their Tiny House, you will be amazed!

How to Build an Octagonal Deck
Nice 'structable showing how to build your own fancy schmancy deck for your home. Seriously though it even covers the geometry needed to pull off the project. Not for the faint of heart but just follow the carpenter's golden rule; measure twice, cut once.

If you spend any time on the Tiny House Blog, you will love it as much as I do. They feature House Plans that most people with a moderate amount of carpentry skills can complete. Some plans are free too! Most plans are priced around the $10 mark so they are very affordable. The success stories are the best! To see how people go from start to finished is very inspirational. So check it out today!

The Homesteader's Free Library
Put this one on your bookmarks bar! A wealth of information for the DIY'er! Too much stuff to cover in one little blog post so go check it out for yourself! Covers topics like Alternative Energy, Construction, Cooking, Gardening, Growing Food and much more!
Historic Shed Cottage
The TinyHouseBlog is a great inspiration for those that want to build their tiny dream home today! Just consider how much a home costs even in this downed economy. Imagine simply buying a little plot of land in a rural area and starting your own Tiny House Project, maybe at first it will only be a vacation or weekend home, but you may find that it could be a new lifestyle waiting for you, and you would have done it for a lot less than the cost of a traditional home.
