Great Example of a Tiny House

The Tiny House movement has grown in the last decade and is indicative of the current shift towards self sustainability due to our ever troubled economy.

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!

8 ft. x14 ft. Sportin' Cabin

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!

Building a solar generator

This is one person's way of building a Solar Power generator, interesting concept but I think it can be done for a lot less up front cash. Check it out anyway it might give you some inspiration for your own rig.

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.
