Octagon-Cottage-Netherlands-0015

This is a tiny octagon cottage located in the Netherlands and it’s called the Forest House because it’s surrounded by the woods and even has views of a nearby natural pond.

Better yet, even though you’re in the woods you can still get to town (Amersfoort) in just a few minutes using a bicycle. When you go inside the cabin, you’ll find a wonderful open living area with a kitchen. At night, the living area converts into a bedroom. When you go in the kitchen, be sure to notice how they designed and built the space saving table for the home.

The couches double as beds and the bathroom is the only other room in the house which also doubles as a laundry room. And by the way, this tiny yurt-like cottage is available as a vacation rental through Airbnb. Please enjoy, learn more, and re-share below. Thank you!

This is Will Hitchcock and Alyssa Pelletier’s custom DIY school bus motorhome who bought the bus for $5,500 and immediately did $2,000 in repairs and maintenance to prepare it for the conversion, according to this article on Houzz.

In total, the couple spent about $30,000 renovating it because they had to strip everything out, add insulation, electric, plumbing, framing, and more (as you’ll see below). Today Will and Alyssa run their business from their school bus conversion while they travel. Pretty inspiring, isn’t it? Please enjoy, learn more and re-share below. Thank you!

This is a backyard tiny house built with recycled windows that were collected over a period of time and is now being used as a DIY greenhouse.

You may remember seeing this little greenhouse project back in September of 2014 when Elina first shared it with us. Today Elina Cullen and Henrik Kruse were kind enough to share what it’s like today as it’s being used as a greenhouse and workspace.

Now the owners are able to grow their own peaches in Denmark where it’s apparently impossible to do so! Pretty awesome, isn’t it? Please enjoy, learn more, and re-share below. Thank you!

This is a 16×20 cottage called the Adapted Starlet Cottage in Gainesville, Florida.

Historic Shed was approached by a client in the historic Duckpond neighborhood who wanted to add a tiny cottage in the backyard that matched their historic home. So that’s exactly what Historic Shed did for them! The tiny home offers about 320 sq. ft. of space inside where you’ll find an open living area, kitchen, bathroom, a small storage loft, and an upstairs sleeping loft. Pretty nice, right? I think it’s just right! See it for yourself below. Please enjoy, learn more, and re-share below. Thank you!
