Listen to Me Yapaway about Tiny Houses on the DIY April Podcast and Blog ;)

I was a guest on the DIY April Podcast recently. The show was titled Tiny House Movement Explodes ~ see the blog here. April and I talked about several Tiny House issues like locations, regulations, the reality of building costs, & why anyone would be crazy enough to attempt living in under 500SF with other folks! If you want to hear me yapaway about my opinions on these issues, go to DIY April and look about half way down the page for this podcast. Click the play button and pretend we are on HGTV ~ Here’s a little taste of the blog post

* The tiny house movement is huge now as people want to scale down and get rid of waste. The idea goes against what has been the trend for so long. The bigger the house, the better the life… right?

I look at large homes with sprawling yards and all I see is a bigger to-do list for time that I don’t have to spare.

Tiny home owners have figured out a way to live in a smaller space without sacrificing quality. I learned that from Ron. He now shares a 450-square foot mansion with his wife Sue.

“It took me about six years to build it and it’s pretty special,” said Ron.

In the meantime, the furniture maker and his wife lived in a small 40-year-old trailer… with three cats and a dog… in Ohio… for six long years!

If you’ve never been to Ohio, it’s freakin’ cold with an average of 28 inches of snow each year in Columbus.

“The idea is to basically just simplify your life so that you can spend more time with friends. Maybe you can afford a nicer bottle of wine.” $$$$ Sold!

April interviews artists, remodelers, Interior decorators, and generally anyone who has the ability and experience to share their “How-To” with other folks. Some really good, fun stuff over there so go peruse and until next time

Cheers and keep TINY,

Ron

Shiny Tiny Mansion
