Keeping a long story short, we had a few bumps in the road (ask us about our handyman drama), but we are SO close to the finish line! Since our last update, here are the changes we’re working on:

• Tiles – Subway tiles on two walls in the bathroom and hexagons on the bathroom floor. We also added a neo-angle shower base.
• Cabinets – Kitchen cabinets, back splash, sink and faucet are installed and look SO good! We installed butcher block counters and plan on adding open shelving as well.
• Ceiling – White-washed planks were added to create more texture/pattern to our home but to also keep the same neutral look of the walls.
• Flooring – Maybe what made the house look the most “homey.” It brought in warmth and texture and unity between the rooms.
• Paint – This made a huge difference in the overall appearance of the house. And ooh, the light it reflects!
• Trim – Adding trim to the windows and floor has really cleaned the place up! And you guessed it, white.
• Desk – Daniel built it by hand [heart eyes]

As a side note, we’ve had a few unexpected possibilities open up to park our home. We visited Lovare a few weeks ago, and it was stunning. We are still actively looking and open to ideas though, so please send any suggestions/recommendations our way!

Below are some progress photos throughout the month. The remaining labor is mostly carpentry-related work (drawers, shelves, sliding doors, etc.). We are purchasing appliances and furnishings soon as well as finally adding the decor I’ve been hoarding storing for months!

So, this is our house, bare.

So thankful I had had this friend to help me along this tiny house journey #tinyhome#tinyhouse#bestie#bro#dreads#iphone6 A photo posted by Daniel (@daniel_tireswing_frey) on Dec 22, 2015 at 5:28pm PST

  My cute husband cleaning the window for a picture. Ikea forgot to include some of our hinges, hence why two of our cabinet doors aren’t hung yet.
