the tiny trend

Postby cccamper » Thu Aug 02, 2007 2:44 am

hi!
was on the AOL web page and there was a special on the trend toward tiny... bites of snacks, mini soda cans, bite size iPods, etc.

one thing was a tiny "house". 70 sq. ft.

now, we know it is a TTT because it has wheels. it has clapboard siding and a tiny back porch.

very nice!

then there was a link to the "small house society" which is really interesting. http://www.resourcesforlife.com/groups/ ... /index.htm


move over mobile mausoleums!

it is the Time of the TearDrop! :P

Forget sleeping girl. Funny how we all find the tiny house sites. Wonder if we are drawn to the small simple way of life.

this is just what we have always wanted. a SIMPLE house. little (easy to clean :lol: ) i didn't know about them. can't happen for us at this point, but we're pouring over and having fun anyway.

learning is a beautiful thing. ( i mean that )
