Living Tiny.

 There is something seriously wrong with me.  Here I sit, with an unexpected day off. I have big plans to wash the floors in my cute little cottage and all I can do is scour Pinterest for photos and links of tiny houses.

I am totally obsessed.

I don't know if Zuddy even realizes the level of my obsession, as I try not to show him everything I pin. I mean, we have talked about a cute little cottage plunked in the middle of the woods and I show him a few photos, which he seems to enjoy. But if saw how much time I spend on this, it may worry him.  

So I will show you, internets :)

Here are some of my faves: 


The mac-daddy.  My dream cottage by Kanga Cottages:






Here is an Airstream makeover found on the Houzz website:



Can you imagine?

Here's a version of a Tumbleweed Cottage customized by a woman in Arkansas ...she has a blog with a tour of this perfect little gem.  Her builder made changes to the original floor plan.  Beautiful!



Okay....now I can go and finish my floors.

Do you like tiny houses?

I am completely in love with the baskets under the ladder stairs in that first house. So freakin' adorable.

I think eventually I could make a tiny house work if the kitchen were big enough. I finally have a good-sized kitchen, and I don't think I can go back.

Pinterest....I spend way to much time there as well! Love the choices you are showing us of the cottages.

Those Kanga homes are pretty adorable! I love the thought that has gone into them.
I vacillate between wanting to live small and having more space. I have always wanted to live within my means and have a home where we use all the rooms each day (which we currently do). I have two little ones under the age of 3, though, so I think having everything underfoot all the time is starting to drive me mad. At another time I think I will yearn for these small homes again. You know, when everything they use daily is no longer made of colorful plastic. That day will come, right?
