Trailhead Tiny Farmhouse
Приєднався 9 січ 2022
Welcome to the Trailhead! My name is Jen and I live in this 34x10 tiny house on wheels. My channel consists of all things tiny house living, organizing, decluttering, styling and most likely some cooking as well. I built this house after my marriage of 18 years ended and I was tasked with finding affordable housing on a single mom budget. I created this channel to inspire others who are looking for an alternative way to restart their life when big change happens.
Separett Villa 9215 | How to Use My Tiny House Toilet (#1, #2, + TMI Situations)
If you're visiting me soon, watch this first! This is my user manual for the Separett Villa 9215 Waterless Composting Toilet. In this video I break down what to do if you need to go #1, #2, or if something has gone horribly, horribly wrong! Plus I show you how I clean my toilet and what I do with that awful bucket of poop that no one wants to deal with.

TINY HOUSE TOUR | Welcome to my 34x10' Double Loft Tiny House with My Dream Kitchen
Переглядів 234 тис.8 місяців тому
When my marriage of 18 years ended in 2018 I needed affordable housing on a single mom income. Somewhere in my search, I landed on the idea of tiny house living, and I never looked back. Living with less - with the option to relocate - is my happily ever after. Enjoy the tour! Instagram: trailheadtiny Website: trailheadtiny.com/ My Amazing Builder: mitchcrafttinyhomes.com/ instag...
How did you find land for your tiny home? Do you lease or did you buy? What about zoning? In what county are you? I live in Denver and would love to do this! Same reasons!
Gosh she is so neat and organized help me
😆❤️ thank you
You’re so talented and I love your home
Thank you!
Great home, great video
❤❤❤
❤❤❤
You are so awesome😊 Love from Germany ❤❤❤
You are an inspirational DIY Women! Thank you for your content.
Love that sign, 'you are magic, own your shit!' 😅
you have made the right decision. Can't go wrong on in your own home renting you're just losing your money . Good for you you have wisely chosen the b e s t path!!!! The best to you
This woman has too many clothes and hats. She has a king bed in case someone lives with her, where would they put their clothes?
This woman doesn’t have to share any of the storage with a man, because she’s living her very best life without one at the moment. If I found someone worthy of sharing my life and my home with, I would make space. For now, the storage is mine all mine. 😆❤️
I’ll take a flush toilet anyday! 😅
It’s not for everybody 😆
Thanks!
Thank you ❤️❤️❤️
I love the tiny home idea. I have been daydreaming for years about how, where, and when I could make this happen in my life. This is by far the best layout I have seen; beautiful color scheme, clean lines, open airy feel. I love that you took the plunge and found an ideal setup for yourself and guests. You are teaching your children/young adults a very valuable lesson that more doesn't always mean more!
Just joined
Surprisingly that was interesting. Also, seems to be a lot of work but worth it to be off-grid.
PS I love your hair!
Wow! I have so much more appreciation for the cleaning you do before/after a guest comes to visit! I feel bad! I appreciate your thorough explanation of how these work. I am in awe of the spinning bucket technology!
Hi Jen! I love your channel! You are a natural in front of the camera and do a great job of telling your story. Good for you getting it started! I’m so happy you found a new job too. On getting more time to create videos…I wonder if you do shorter less polished/edited videos just get more content- under 5 minutes - maybe breaking them up into a series of smaller chunks so it takes less time to edit ? Less polish is ok for UA-cam... especially for a new channel. I know that goes against a designer’s nature, but it won’t be long until the channel gains in popularity and you can expand your team with an editor :) Excited to keep watching!
Whoa!!! Blast from the past. Sooo great to hear from you. Hope you are well. ❤️ Yes shorter videos is a great idea!! 8 minutes is sort of the magic number as far as having ad revenue and ads placed in the middle of the video. Anything shorter only gets ads before and after. Thanks so much for the feedback 😃
Good to know how this works! Great explanation and very humorous!
I'm glad to see you are comfortable with your toilet. This wouldn't be for me! Thank you for sharing.
Newbie! Enjoyed watching you video and sharing real life experiences. 😊
So happy you are posting again! Your videos are so professionally done!
Thanks for your updates. I am so glad you found work. I am in that position now too. As we get older it is harder to find great jobs. I am a few years older than you are. Thank you for sharing your struggles with your tiny house. Many of us are thinking of going with a tiny house eventually. So glad to see you are doing better and you now have your son back for a while, enjoy those times.
Way informative. Thank you. All other videos just show the toilet. …. Now I know ….. and knowing is half the battle! Anyone is welcome to comment the rest of this pop culture phrase!
Excellent job on the how to!
You found your groove - keep on going! A positive attitude is half the battle and absolutely essential… 💪🧘🏻♂️
Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️
Toooo excellent!! I feel enlightened and in an alert state of readiness… 🙏🤩
✅🤣
I found you just now. So glad I did. Trust yourself. You are strong and wise!… a single woman, a mother, a creative mind and so much more. The only commitment you can make is to yourself. Take care of you. The rest will follow. Truly! How wonderful to have some special moments with your son. Make the most of them. Sending you much light and hugs. You are worth every bit of love you give yourself! Blessings.
❤️❤️❤️ thank you for finding me
FINALLY an honest in depth video on composting toilets! Definitely was a subject to discuss and to some it may be awkward but hey we are all human and we all do the same "business" and the truth needed to be said. Thank you for producing honest and entertaining videos on tiny house living.
Informative
Where does the pee go? Into grey water? Or do you have to drain a bucket?
Exactly. The urine diverted line joins the gray water line so I don’t even have to think about that, thankfully!
So appreciate your honesty & humor! As they say, everybody poops! Very thorough demo - the good & the ugly. Thank you!
Everybody does poop 💩😁
I love all this. But the round table is one of the best. Congratulations on your new journey. Godspeed!
What a cool home.
Wait. There's no composting medium in the bucket?!? I have an OGO in my van and use coconut coir. The OGO has a mechanical mixer. You can push the button while you're still seated and never have to actually see any poop. 👍🏼
Not with this particular model. Also I don’t actually compost this as of yet. There are no services in my area so for now it is just going out as regular waste.
You did a great job walking us through this. Awesome information! Question Is menstruation solid or liquid?
I would definitely say solid! The cedar shavings help with absorption.
@@trailheadtiny I believe it. I used to use pine horse pellets as kitty litter. Worked best, lasted longer, and MUCH cheaper. 👍
What about the pee? How do you deal with the pee? Where does that go???
Thankfully I don’t have to even think about the pee because it joins my gray water line and gets diluted by my sink and shower water. No weird pee jug to deal with!!!
Listen, it is so good to see you back on here more often. Your positivity is contagious!
Awe thank you so much. What a wonderful comment to start my day ❤️
great video ...People have showed them before but never showed us how it works....Its a crapy job but someone has to do it :)
How does that work when one has a menstrual cycle?
Thank you for the info. It was very informative. I never knew how a compost Toilet worked before.
Interesting info, I’ve never heard a demo so enjoyed all the great info. Thanks.
I so want a water trough for a bath tub!@
Great tour and you have a lovly home.
Enclose your tiny house all around the base. This will make all the difference. Enjoyed your video
You are amazing. Thank you for being so real. Blessings for the best yet to come!
Love your life … you have great taste. Hope you enjoy your life at the very best.
This is a beautiful video. Your tiny house is beautiful and I’m so glad to find your channel 🙌🏻❤️
The economy is terrible, even though they keep telling us it's good. A lot of people are hurting! You tiny home is beautiful!!! I am happy you're living your best life!!!!
So true! More like the unemployment rate is going down or at least it seems that way in my area.
