Meet Alexis, and her 11-month-old daughter Nalani. Alexis bought her amazing tiny house from Cornerstone Tiny Homes, and it has everything she wanted including a built-in bookshelf for all her books and an under-the-stairs reading nook.
She found a tiny home community in Florida to park her little house and it costs just $450/month rather than the $750 she had previously been paying in rent (while living with a roommate!). Now she has a place of her own designed to meet all her needs (wait until you see the kitchen sink!) that she can share with her adorable daughter. She wants other single moms to know this a dream they can achieve!
We interviewed her so be sure to read the Q&A after the photo tour, and follow Alexis on Instagram for updates!

Designers, artists and environmentalists Geoff and Rose spent two years taking this 1988 Motorhome and transforming into an eco-friendly and incredibly cozy tiny house!
While the truck still runs they don’t intend to travel in it, but rather have it parked on a 200 acre farm in rural Ontario (they even have their own chickens). Neither Geoff nor Rose have building experience, so they learned as they went and carefully researched everything. They even insulated the whole home with wool they cleaned themselves! Woah.
We got the chance to do a Q&A with Geoff which you can read below the photo tour. They documented the entire build from start to finish on Instagram (@woollymammothtiny) so be sure to follow them to get even more details.

I think we all need some good news in our inboxes during this pandemic, so here it is: The San Jose, California City Council went through the first reading of an ordinance that would classify Movable Tiny Homes as ADUs!
According to the Tiny Home Industry Association, it has to go through another reading and would then become law by the end of May! Once these THOWs are recognized as ADUs, it makes it much easier to find a spot to legally park them. Hopefully this legislation will pave the way for more cities across the country follow suit, and therefore make tiny living more accessible long-term. To read more about the legislation, click here.

We interviewed Tim & Sam, the owners of Tiffany the Tiny Home, just after they moved into their THOW, and now it’s been nearly three years and they’re still living tiny!
In fact, the couple purchased a small island in Florida where they are in the process of building an octagonal tiny home on a foundation (@shellmate_island on Instagram) that they will rent out to others who want to try out the tiny life. They’ll continue to live in Tiffany, just in a more idyllic location they own.
Tiffany (@tiffany_the_tiny_home on Instagram) has such an elegant interior with dark trim, cream walls and stained glass windows. We caught up with Tim & Sam in our Q&A at the end of the post, so be sure to read that!

This is an owner-built Tumbleweed Cypress tiny house on wheels that’s for sale in Wimberly, Texas. It’s 7 ft x 21 ft, and features a king-sized sleeping loft and second storage loft. The first owners did the stunning rough-edge cedar exterior, and the current owners finished out most of the interior.
The plumbing for water isn’t finished yet and the bathroom is a complete blank slate for you to design however you’d like! The bathroom walls are just concrete board and plywood at the moment, but the build comes with an on-demand gas water heater that was never hooked up, a shower pan, and small Ikea sink.
In the kitchen the couple used a convection oven, Instant pot and induction cook top for meals, and there’s a full-sized refrigerator. A space heater and fan have provided heating and cooling to date, but a mini-split install is something you can do further down the road.
The couple is selling the THOW for $27,000 to help cover the costs of the small farm they are purchasing. For more information and to make an offer, head over to Tiny House Marketplace.

This folding tiny house with wings is undoubtedly one of its kind. While bump-outs in RVs have been around for a long time, this home features swinging “wings” that fold out when the home is parked.
The house is created almost entirely out of reclaimed or recycled materials, making it incredibly eco-friendly. It was handcrafted by Nick (@knicknack on Instagram) and his friend Jay in Salt Spring, British Columbia.
