May I present the tiny house table and sitting bench. Not only will it provide three comfortable places to eat meals, it also provides ample space to spread out while doing some work. The Tiny House Table Based on the layout of this tiny house, the table is directly across from the couch in the great room. However, we all know that space is
In every tiny house there seems to be a couch either permanently attached to a wall or a moveable piece of furniture. Naturally, this largely depends on the layout of the tiny house. It’s like a tiny house isn’t complete without some kind of seating. However, it would be nice to accommodate another person when the need arises. Unfortunately, there isn’t space for another
What a big difference a little filling and sanding make. I always thought the purpose of sanding is to remove any splintering on rough wood. However, it is much more than that. With a lot of the tiny house interior complete, sanding makes a big difference in both smoothness and appearance. [Photo Album] So why go through the extra effort? There is about 4
The kitchen is one of the most important areas in any house. It has to be functional and flow naturally. Cooking, cleaning, and preparing are essential parts of a kitchen’s work flow.

500 hours of construction, and another 100 hours in the books. It’s been roughly four months since the last 100 hour milestone has been crossed. During the last 100 hours, projects continue to take longer as we approach the end of the construction phase. The majority of the last 100 hours have been during the autumn and early winter of Maine. The weather has been
Since I live in Maine, winter is a reality. Snow, cold, and ice are a way of life for many months each year. Despite efforts to ready the tiny house for comfort throughout the winter, it isn’t quite ready to be self-reliant throughout those cold days. This year, winter wins the race. Thus, it’s time to winterize the tiny house. What does it mean
Every area in the tiny house provides its own challenges and sense of accomplishment. However, there are some milestones that feel like a huge leap forward towards completing the build. The first milestone was the roof, then it was the lights. Now, it’s the wonder of tiny house plumbing. There is actual running water! It’s very exciting. It sounds so trivial as we take plumbing
400 hours of construction! That’s another 100 hour milestone crossed. It seems very predictable now that a 100 hour milestone happens every 3 to 4 months. During the last 100 hours, projects focus on details and some finish work. The majority of the last 100 hours have been during late spring to late summer in Maine. The weather has been favorable for outside work.
The kitchen is one of the most important areas in any house. It has to be functional and flow naturally, which makes cooking and food preparation more efficient. Since space is a premium, every precious inch in a tiny house kitchen must cater to the needs of the cook. This tiny house kitchen attempts to do just that. That being said, it’s no small
