When Cheryl retired 11 years ago, she lived in a 1,400-square-foot home. She had raised her son as a single mom and was ready for something new. She knew the only way she could afford a tiny house would be to DIY it, so she found a workshop with Incredible Tiny Homes. There, they built a shell, and then she, some friends, and some other work shoppers transformed it into a home!
Although the house is only 140 square feet, with a small storage loft, it has everything she needs and wants. She even has space for her sewing machine, a sewing table, and all her supplies! Enjoy her inspirational tour below.

Get ready to tour Alan’s amazing DIY tiny house, which he built after losing his loving wife and needing a positive change. He can live off his social security because he does some Door-Dash on the side about 10 days a month. By purchasing an LTVA (long-term visitor access) pass to BLM land, he can camp for just $25/month in rent!
His DIY home includes special features, including his late wife’s wardrobe and a family heirloom desk. It also has a full bathroom, a galley kitchen, and a twin-sized bed. What do you think of his tiny house?

Manon had moved around every year for 15 years when she decided to convert a van to live in full-time. After two years of vanlife, she was ready for some more comforts — especially during the winter — and decided to build a tiny house on wheels!
With her cabinet-making skills, she was able to design and build an awesome THOW with some funky rooflines and plenty of space for her book collection. She lives on a rural plot in the French countryside with some other tiny house dwellers.

You should bookmark this post for when you have a few free hours! Today, we’re showing you two videos of Drew from “Drew Builds Stuff,” building his tiny house from the trailer up. It’s not finished yet (he has the bathroom and kitchen to complete at the end of Part Two), but these videos are soothing and inspiring as Drew takes you step-by-step through his build process.
In the first video, you’ll see him complete the entire exterior build, including the framing, roofing, placing windows, etc. In part two, Drew shows himself finishing off the interior, excluding the bathroom and kitchen finishes. As soon as Part Three is out, we’ll update you all, but for now, get inspired to build your own tiny home!

Builder’s Blueprint is an awesome YouTube channel where this man DIYs all kinds of amazing things, including these mini campers for two homeless people in their area. But last month, he tackled something much bigger—a backyard gym tiny house!
The original plan was to use the space as a short-term rental, but since the city refused them, they pivoted and created a home gym complete with a massive Major Fitness Gym set-up. You can watch the entire process, from cement blocks to finishing touches, in the video below!

Jono is a professional builder, but he said that building his tiny house for his wife Eva and their son was more complicated than traditional building! Even if it was a challenge, the result of his DIY project looks professional and works perfectly for this family of three.
Their house design is super cool, with a spacious wet bathroom, a loft bedroom with a specially designed crib attachment, and a hang-out loft. The U-shaped kitchen is particularly impressive, as it fits full-sized appliances and even a drawer dishwasher. Their living space extends outdoors on their large porch with a special covered corner. What do you love about this?

Lucy lives in a small cottage on the edge of Tasmanian woodlands that she and her father brought back to life after nearly 30 years of disrepair. The shed-like structure had been Lucy’s first home, which her parents built as a temporary dwelling place while constructing their forever home.
She added three extra spaces during the build, which allows for a gorgeous first-floor bedroom that is well-lit by large, low windows and overlooks the magnificent countryside. But the part of the home that was original, Lucy has tried to keep as true to the past as possible, beautifully remembering her roots and appreciating those early years of her life!

Daniel and Alejandra live in the Orlando Lakefront Tiny House Community in Florida in their own DIY tiny house, “Skylight.” The name comes from the two giant 8-foot skylights that take up more than half of the roof! Letting in so much natural light helps make the space so much brighter.
Daniel built the house on a trailer from an old RV, found the skylights on Marketplace, and reclaimed the spiral staircase from a pontoon. The home has an incredible kitchen and gorgeous closet storage in the bathroom. You’ll notice the color scheme is white and beige, which intentionally kept the space extra open. What do you think of this tiny house design?
