“Hey, whose bus is in the driveway?” – Chris
“That’s our tiny home.” – Chris’ wife, Carol
And that’s how it all started! After Chris and Carol saw skoolies at an Atlanta tiny house show, Carol caught the bug, and two weeks later Chris came home to the bus Carol purchased.
Then he and some friends got to work on building out their vacation skoolie, which they use as empty-nesters to travel wherever their hearts take them. Chris is a true gem, so be sure to watch the Tiny Home Tours interview below!

So this is totally on my project list! A greenhouse built from recycled windows is a perfect shabby-chic addition to your backyard AND you can use it to start seeds or grow some year-round produce. This one was built by Mustard Seed Tiny Homes near Atlanta, Georgia.
Right now the company is only building these, on foundation, within an hour radius of their headquarters. So if you happen to live locally, I’d definitely contact them! This could even be used as a warm-weather Airbnb if you had a private spot to tuck it into.
Enjoy the pictures below and contact the builder here.

Jennifer was living with her two teenage sons when she first saw tiny homes on TV. She really wanted one of her own, but wanted to wait until the boys were off to college to get started. So she made a 5-year plan and three months ago moved into her adorable THOW called “The Hairy Respite.”
She lives in her house, custom-designed by Uncharted Tiny Homes in Arizona, with her three dogs. Every part of her home was thoughtfully planned out, from her large living area with a comfy daybed, to her downstairs bedroom with 8 feet of closet space, to her bathroom with a single unit washer and dryer and a doggie door.
Enjoy the detailed tour with Tiny Home Tours below, and follow Jennifer’s journey here.

Corey & Shauna have been a couple since they were 15-year-olds in Wisconsin. They’d spent a lot of time in Nashville, when they got job offers to move them to Oregon. The thought of moving all their stuff stressed them out, and before they knew it Google had led them to #vanlife.
That said, they purchased the van just before COVID hit, leaving them suddenly jobless after selling most of their possessions and subletting their Nashville apartment. So they went back home, built out their van, and then hit the road despite the “gasoline” poured over their previous plans.
The result is a lovely Promaster conversion, and Shauna said van life has helped her face and conquer many fears she didn’t even realize were controlling her life. Watch the full tour with Tiny Home Tours below.

This is a Ford Transit van build with 4 seats and two beds by Rocky Mountain Campers.
It’s not everyday that you see a van conversion like this that’s ready for you and your crew. It has proper seating for four, including a legal place for a car-seat, and not one but two queen beds. What do you think?

This is an awesome little THOW with a Nordic feel that would make a great home for one or two people, or also a nice Airbnb in the backyard.
It has no loft, but rather uses the main area as both bedroom and living space. Then there’s a small kitchen with hook-ups for a fridge, and also a bathroom which includes a mini tub.
The whole thing feels sleek and minimalist, and it’s selling in Tennessee for $34,500.

When Johnny thought he was getting a new Navy position that would have him deploying more frequently, he chose to rent out his home and purchase a 1981 CHB Ed Monk Trawler to use as his home base wherever he went (rather than paying rent in a number of cities).
The Navy ended up cancelling that job altogether, but Johnny kept the boat and now he teaches other Navy sailors to drive boats, continues to rent out his home, and lives full-time on his trawler. We actually showed you his buddy’s trawler some months ago, and the two of them enjoy hanging out in the water around San Diego.
See it all in the video interview with Tiny Home Tours below!

Here’s the Dois, another awesome cabin design that’s great for it’s relatively compact footprint. It packs in a full 800 square feet of living space, though, by going up to a second floor (with a staircase and full ceiling height!).
Dois has two bedrooms on that second floor, and also a downstairs and upstairs bathroom for those middle-of-the-night bathroom runs.
You can purchase plans to build your own from Small House Catalog here.
