VIDEO DESCRIPTION:
Nikki is a special education teacher with three dogs and a love for natural living. She sold her home that always needed roommates to cover the cost of living and downsized to this perfect tiny home. Her house measures 43 x 8 1/2 ft with 356 sq ft of living space.
The interior has a spacious kitchen that sits aside a large window. There's an apartment-style retro fridge, a gas oven, a small microwave/oven combo, and enough room to keep her Kitchenaid beside the toaster oven. Although the counter space isn't abundant, there is plenty of cabinet storage for all her items. Nikki designed this build with two upstairs lofts, one primarily for her and the other for a guest or, most often, her three dogs. The bathroom is quaint but functional and sits next to her stackable washer and dryer. With a few spots for her projector screen and plants throughout, this house feels like a welcoming home.

This is the first time I’ve heard anyone talk about the things that don’t work so great in a tiny home, or the different challenges. I really appreciated that.
I like that she addresses the challenges. Sometimes in the videos, tiny living sounds too good to be true. When designing spaces it is good to keep in mind storage vs work space and be aware of the time it will take to access the storage space. It is amusing that her dogs seem to command her tiny home. 😊 Lucky dogs.
5t5
Three dogs is way too many with the behaviour she seems to struggle with. Stealing food, dragging stuff out of storage, raiding garbage cans, implied sleeping interruptions xD no thanks lol. I'll keep my cat hehe.
@@AmandaComeauCreates You can train dogs not to do that. Some people just baby their dogs and don’t stick to the training.
Who are YOU to tell someone what is or isn’t too many animals?? You really have some nerve. That comment was rude AF. You should truly be ashamed of yourself.
"also because of the dogs I usually lock them in the bathroom... not the dogs, the trash cans"🤣🤣🤣
It was very funny how she said it. I have to do the same or I return to a mess. I enjoyed her sincerity & keen sense of humor.
🤣🤣🤣 was looking for this comment!!
So funny 😄
😂😂😂
My life, exactly, as ruled by tiny, 4-legged marauding mutts!🤣😅
Every tiny home video should have the price included in a consistent location (under Description would be best). And actually, a brief mention in a format across all videos of who built it or from where they got it & how it was situated (such as delivered on trailer fully constructed; decks added after it was in final position, etc) would be very helpful, too.
I like how she doesn't sugarcoat anything, and how she focuses primarily on the major challenges and minor dislikes. Even her last words of advice begin with, "...think it all the way through."
Respect.
The builders did a great job, and so did she in making it a cute home. I’m from Austin also and she ain’t kidding about the humidity and critters😂
Save your money and invest in cellular heat resistant blinds
I am curious as to why they made the steps up to goose neck bedroom on the shorter side of the ceiling though?
Wow, a tiny house that is not all that tiny--lots of storage and many rooms for different activities ... she even has *two* bedrooms for her own use!
Thank you for the reality check! Explaining the dislikes as well as your love for your home is incredibly helpful to the rest of us. I’m excited to follow your lead and have been preparing by downsizing my stuff and preparing to sell my 1600 sq ft home which is just more home than I need. So ready to downsize!
I didn't know tiny houses could be 42 ft. long.good to know.I would love to buy a couple acres and build my own.🙏
Can even be 55 ft long too
I adore her kitchen! So spacious for a tiny home, and as much as I hate doing dishes, I don't even hate that she doesn't have a dishwasher. Love her tiny home.
She has the no-nonsense way of speaking that teachers have. Respect from a special-ed employee of 32 years, now retired. Working with kids will keep you young over the years! Good luck with finishing grad school. It will be such a relief when you are done ✅.
All of her sentences end as if she is asking a question. It’s kind of weird.
@@debblouin it's called upspeak and is related to valley speak
@@Shridra It was mocked for being “ Valley Girl “ speak; I now hear males speaking this way too 🤣
It’s called an “uptalk”. The last word in a sentence should go down in sound and taper off. People who uptalk, elevate the last word and increase the tone upwards. It is hard to get used to listening to.
@@bobbigeehan7221 that’s a weird way of speaking
She's helping me appreciate the beauty and perks of living small since I've been thinking of having a place I can call my own one day affordably. It's quite spacious for a tiny home I must say, but how she's honest with her living situation makes it such a genuine home tour. Definitely a beautiful home. :)
wise, honest, reasonable woman who keeps it real!
I’ve seen a lot of tiny homes online, but this one is wonderful! I could actually see myself living there! You did a wonderful job! I love it!!!
One of the best tiny home videos I have seen. I appreciated your thoughtful tips. You addressed a lot of concerns I've had about downsizing. Also many of the utilitarian aspects of living in a TH. Love the dish rack,retro appliances,tasteful fan & especially your great Aunties table on wheels! Gratitude for the "under the tongue" throw space. Refreshing & genuine. Thank you sincerely for sharing your experience & your lovely home. Happy trails to you & your pups!
Texas built Texas Tiny Home. Double uses for things is a plus, even unintended. Going vertical is a good thing. Live plants is a plus and useful/decorative for character.
Love your home. Appreciate your honesty in going tiny. Have looked at tiny homes for years. My favorites are the ones with the lofts and all the space they give you. Thanks for sharing your home.
I think the advice and ideas on storage items are very helpful to people like myself. I do not live in a tiny house but a single bedroom flat in Glasgow,Scotland.I am now retired and recently become disabled due to a fall. I moved from a big house to the much smaller flat.The tiny house ethos is very appealing to me and it has helped me get a more positive attitude to life.
Some people cover their kitchen sink or stove top to increase counter space. To provide an occasional bathroom counter top, make a cover for the sink. A mini table top with short legs to raise above the faucet & trim the edges to keep small items from rolling off. Fold up legs & a center hinge would allow easy storage. Another option, get a standing mirror & sit at your kitchen counter top extension to do make up or skin care. Thank you for the tour & your pro's vs con's tips. Your suggestion to prepare in advance for a downsized lifestyle is wise advice. It takes time to adapt to the transition.
Exactly, she could just by a large cutting board or wooden tray and use it as a counter over the bathroom sink. Great ideas you have.
I have the same challenge in my full sized house as my bathroom is so small. Sink will barely hold a curling iron while I’m fixing my hair, and it always falls into the sink!
@@Butterflies.and.Tulips what you could do is get one of those cup/drink holders that can hang/hook over the sink cabinet door. As you curl your hair, you store it in there. Keep it at a safe distance from your leg. Better yet, open the door and set it on the opposite side. Hope this helps.
Great ideas for any size ! This is what I love about Tiny House comments: they are transferable to many living situations.
Thank you for keeping it real. Wow you are exactly who I needed to hear at this latter stage of my Tiny plan.
Beautiful you keep up with the work you do.
Your home is beautiful!! I love the kitchen and baby blue accessories. You have done a wonderful job decorating and making this a cozy, warm home. Great for you!!!
I also LOVE that your closet is directly across from your washer/dryer unit. That idea and setup is fantastic 👍
Would definitely live in this tiny house, love the room that you can ACTUALLY stand up. Maybe would just add a slide door with a window. 😁😊 & also appreciate the truths about what she has experienced living tiny. Wish that tiny houses were more accessible here in Brazil.
Your home is amazing. That quilt is beautiful. It looks hand made. Just so cozy. 💕
I like this a lot. It's not claustrophobic. My biggest issue with tiny living is the small spaces, however, this one feels spacious and homey. I could live there happily.
5***** for all your features in the 5th wheel. The retro appliances are fun. Two lofts are max cool. That oscillating ceiling fan is one of my favorites. Thanks for having us in. Admire your career path also.
Yes! I've been wondering why more people don't have an incinolet. If you have the power or solar it just makes wonderful sense. Working in construction industry I found out about them several years ago.
The tiny home 🏡 is truly amazing 👏 ❤ 💖 😍 and second to none. Two thumbs up 👍 👌 to her.
I really like your kitchen colors. The turquoise/aqua and white are beautiful!!! ❤️️❤️️❤️️❤️️
Great lady and home 😍👍 Thanks for your honesty about the challenges. By adding some more shelves into the kitchen storage you'd get rid of "the mess" inside and have better access to everything. I did so in my kitchen and it made a big difference 😃👍 Good luck for your purchase of land 🍀
Add pullout shelves then the stuff in the back are accessible. I have them in my pantry & love them.
I luv the layout of your tiny house, esp. that extra space that can be used as a craft room. Your tiny house feels spacious and cozy. Hope you'll continue enjoying the tiny house life with your dogs.
Hi, can you please make a video of the details costs of everything,
And also places and costs to park on a monthly+ basis?
How long did it take you to make the house?
Thank you!
It's a lovely home, I am thinking about downsizing too. I watch these videos to get inspiration, 😊 thanks
People used to raise six kids in an 800 sq foot home quite happily. They spent time outdoors.
Really cute tiny home she has. I have an idea for her about the open space near the floor of the steps.You could build bump out drawer’s that you open up with the tap of your foot.Also it would create more drawer space.I was wondering about her three dog’s…..what breed they are?She never mentioned.Just curious 🤨
Gorgeous home! I LOVE the cabinets in the kitchen (I've always wanted a white kitchen) and the shower curtain with pockets for storage.
2:18 -dishwasher not recommended due to humidity ?!
Hemm but they are in regular homes in Texas.
4:20 produce hanger to save space
5:14 fridge is hard to cool and freeze things takes a lot of energy
9:41 no hamper because just throws everything into the washer directly - for those who separate colors when washing may not work
10:20 - incinelette - burns toilet waste. Noisy when running. Ash residue
Excess humidity with mold/mildew is a common problem in tiny homes. Many have dehumidifier fans.
I’ve heard about humidity being an issue in both tiny homes and RVs/bus conversions. Apparently it’s a bigger issue than has been explained to us. 🤷♀️
I think naming your tiny house or skoolie build is whimsical and fun, especially when you put a lot of blood, sweat, tears and time (Not to mention money) into it. So what if they are inanimate, lol. People have a relationship with them. It's like naming a car or ship. It shows you are human, not dumb. Great home.
Hun use a plastic food tray for your sink when doing your makeup I use one it’s great to use as a table top over stuff like bed or couch also.
You could always get yourself something like a butcher block to just set on the top of your sink while your doing your makeup then just take it off when your finished..maybe paint it up make it cute just a thought lol...i love your home its beautiful
Beautiful home,the blue hurricane lamp is gorgeous. I have it in orange. The doggie door was a great idea.
Cute tiny house. Maybe she could get a board (with a lip/side on one side) to use on top of her sink in the bathroom for makeup, etc.
I really love the stairs storage in the tiny home n the color scheme is very nice thank you for the pros and cons as well enjoy the whole video.💜 Great job 👌
Different window sauces is an easy fix.. Buy material You don't even have to so just cut it to length and use the liquid sew.
Love the layout of this tiny home. Looks very comfortable & you have everything you need.
What a lovely wee home!
🍁👵❤🐕🇨🇦
Ahh beautiful: well done for your creation: a lovely home for a lovely lady 😊
If had a beautiful home like that I’d find a beautiful spot in a place that would except that kind of building and get myself a new job. That’s one thing about tiny you’re not tied to anything your home is movable.
I love Georgetown! I lived in Austin-Round Rock until I moved to Arizona summer 2020. Miss Austin so much! This is such a cute home!
Extremely cute home and well thought out. I want a tiny house but a Ranch house with 2 bedrooms and a basement.
No sleeping in the dogs bedroom for you huh? I wouldn't let guess sleep in the dogs room on they're bed, I let them sleep in my BR.
that sounds like a regular house, lol
She is learning to cook and the fabulous Cuisinart oven/ Microwave she originally installed is a sophisticated tool. I have one, my sister has one, my nephew has one. A large toaster oven would suit her better at this stage
She did a great job. Good to hear the pros and the cons and the think abouts
Love your reference to the dogs having many beds. I understand spoiled pets!
This tiny house has more living space than my apt. Wow i was living tiny before tiny living was cool lmfao
You should use the catch all room that the table your Aunt gave you, as a dining room! That would be awesome!!
Thank You for taking the time to create and share this wonderful video with us all ❤️ Excellent speakers!!! You all are absolutely amazing! and so creative! Inspirational for all of us😘
Great video thank! I’m in Round Rock and my only holdback is where to park a tiny home.
Did anyone else want to see the dogs or am I the only crazy dog person?
Yea, I was wondering all that time ... when is she going to introduce her pups! ;)
What a great size this is, I like she has a full height bedroom and the little anti room in-between her sitting room.
For someone living in a van, this seems like so so so much space to keep so so so many things. But respect for downsizing from a house that was five times as big, requires some thoughts!
I love the Robin's egg blue colour hurricane lamp those are hard to find and they are antiques.
They lied to you. You can have a dishwasher in Texas. An they work fine. They make mini dishwasher perfect for your small place.
I think they were saying it would be too humid in the tiny house with a dishwasher? Idk weird
I think the issue was not space, but the air circulation in a tiny house that would result in the humidity. An 8 foot wide space filled with cupboards on both sides is not conducive to air flow. I agree that there are some very tiny dishwashers, some are just drawers.
Gorgeous house and a beautiful young woman. Love your attitude ❤️. I'm wondering about the cost of the home. It seems plenty big with 2 bedrooms and so many windows. Thanks for sharing your home.
I thank you Nikki for your refreshing candor. You are a very exceptional person.
I wish you wellness and joy. TY for your heartfelt advice based on common sense and experience we (in the dream stage) haven't developed.
I'm going to live in Florida so (similar climate.) I noticed you did the large multi-window walls everyone wants but, realistically the heat and light and need for privacy require them to be covered most times.
I love your beebop blues💙 ! I have the same color appliances & a few more incl two 4 Galanz cu ft refrigerators without a freezer but, a big ice maker and sm. chest freezer. You got me excited about how great they'll look in a white home! Your layout is so practical and liveable.
I love your great aunt's presence in your home. I miss my auntie too and hope to incorporate some of her things too.
TY 👍 GREAT inspiration, education and conversation. Nikki you rock! 🎸⭐
I'd love to hear exactly what she does/doesn't like about the combo microwave/oven. I've considered getting one but don't know anyone who has one, so I have nobody to ask. I like to hear first-hand accounts.
Love that dish drying rack!
LOVE the exterior color & she's got my microwave & mixer!
Now I just need to get the matching fridge. ;)
Hey sister! I’ve got no uppers with limited drawers but I LOVE my spices! I bought 4oz mason jars from Amazon (40 for $23) and put in a magnet between 2 lid inserts and hang them from my hood. That’s saved me a TON of space, plus the colors of the spices, in the quilted jars looks like stained glass when the sun hits them! For an hour each day my kitchen GLOWS!
We also have a combo air fryer, toaster oven, and rotisserie, it’s vertical so again space saving! It was also from Amazon. (Nuwave Brio 14qt large capacity it’s currently $79)
It’s about as wide as 3/4 of your microwave but as tall as your drying rack maybe a little shorter! I LOVE MINE! I even use it to dehydrate things, it’s my “go to” over my traditional oven!
I hope that helps! I LOVE LOVE LOVE your home!
our home is big and.40 yrs old... so is our LEAKY TIKI...but our veiw is breathtaking! I'm not one who sits, gazing at the inside, my used furniture...
But, I'd be fine w living in a dilapidated old singlewide as long as I have my view,.on several acres, no noise...
but living in a tiny home couldn't hold my 6ft grand piano and vintage pump organ that I play all the time..is my passion...
A tiny home like this one would be perfect for keeping set up in RV park, Suavie Island, Oregon...on the Colombia River!..kept set up so we could enjoy a few days per week.
zero debt is a.must...doesn't take big income, takes being wise and not using credit cards PERIOD!
Love love love your quilt. Kudos to the designer!!
Very nice home you have done. Thank you for sharing this with us today from Henrico County Virginia
I've thought about going tiny. The land is one thing that is an issue. Also insurance, from what I have seen can be an issue with tiny homes.
Love your home.... love all the space under the gooseneck..perfect for christmas decorations...as well....beautiful home lots of luck
Love her tiny 🏠
I hate a double sink - love a big open sink. ID you add an ERV (Energy Recovery Ventilator - an air exchanger) to your home it will help with the humidity problems small space like Tiny Homes have. If you are looking for a Convection Oven to fit that space Hamilton Beach makes one with a rolltop door which won't get in the way when you use it. *Where did you find that dish drying rack???* She is correct - finding a place to put Tiny Homes is very difficult in the US. I'm in New York State and there are very few places to put Tiny Homes and the rental fee for the space is outside what my retirement budget allows.
Your home is gorgeous!
Manifesting that one day I’ll build a tiny house 🏠 🙏🏻🥺
With a dream in your heart you're going to succeed. If you can dream it? You can achieve it.
Nice. I'd have also made sure kitchen is a high focus as I love cooking
Your tiny house is beautiful, I love it.
That's the issue about researching the areas which would allow tiny homes. That's what I'm worried about. If I had a tiny home, where would I be able to park it for long term?
I think is very interesting and good that we know how our toilets work, every one should know about it because we will be much more responsible with our environment, shopping , etc, very honest person. very good
Great job… well organized
Love this one, the best I have seen
I like this one but standing room is necessary. I love she allows for her doggies
Love your home! I went to your IG account to see if you had photos of your furbabies! They are so ADORABLE!!! 🐾♥🐾
Furniture on wheels is a great idea! Love your home. Thank you for sharing with us!
A very beautiful home!! So big👍
I would have desired pull out shelves for the storage areas.
💙 all the storage and that you raised the fridge for more storage
I babysat for a couple and stayed over, woken in the middle of the night by their Irish wolfhound stretching next to me, it seems I was sleeping in his bed 😂
Beautiful home! Thank you for sharing 😊
we keep all our make up in a zippable make up case. it looks like a mini suitcase and has compartments in it. when you want to get ready you just pull it out lay it on the edge of the sink, unzip it and go. compact but holds a ton.
I really like the loft that you can stand I would really like the steps leading to this loft as I am handicap. The loft with the steps would feel claustrophobic
I love the layout
Beautiful job on your home!!
Air con, cut and tape cardboard and attach to 1/4 of air con and direct it to your room, a white pipe will do the same thing, even with bends in it.
I have done this and works a treat.
There is a tiny house vid on YT where a guy did exactly that using a white pipe. He said it works great.
May I ask where you found your lovely Tiny Home?
I love your tiny home. Your decor is incredible 😍. I'm especially interested in your toilet. I never heard or seen anything like it. Will you share the name of it again? It looks so clean, easy to maintain and retro. How did you find out about it?
I know you indicated in your video that you are a craft person I too am a craft person and you mentioned about your windows and the different sizes and shapes had you ever considered possibly learning to sell or do you know how to throw and out of some machine expensive way to get curtains to fit right and to be worked into what you're into the other thing is is I think it's a special education teacher my hat is off to you totally for so many reasons I live in a mobile home park myself in about 30 ft by 30 ft with all my addition and it's not as tiny as you but it is tiny for me I hope you enjoy your tiny house living continue to enjoy it you know I enjoy living in my own space and having things which I enjoy my crafts around as you do I'm sure take care and happy New Year
Great place!
Love it how much generally did it cost you?
Fabulous home
