Mom Builds Daughter Tiny House - it'll be her dorm & Mom to RV travel!

[@TinyHouseExpedition]

Single mom, Holly sold her 2800 sqft house in pursuit of simple tiny home life. With her brother, she built a tiny house for her daughter, Tilly--a dorm room alternative. And it's lovely & super practical! The standing height loft bedroom is incredible. 👉🏡 *Watch a tour of a Retiree's container home on wheels offers healing & affordable living:* kzbin.info/www/bejne/e4HaYZqlg7ukjZI

You should do an episode where you switch houses with another couple for a week...where the couple lives in a huge mansion so they'll live in your tiny home for a week and you'll live in their mansion for a week.

[@kawilson1051]

Beautiful design! Inside and out. Tilly is fortunate to have a mom who is investing in her future this way. Dorm life is not all it's cracked up to be. This will provide Tilly a place to stay quiet/centered while she studies. And the all-important independence we all craved at her age. Oh, and welcome to Colorado! 😊

[@wolfbisbing486]

Wow I’ve fallen in love with not only this tiny house but this beautiful woman. The things she’s done for her daughter has captured my heart ❤️. She’s absolutely correct about doing after you retire. It generally doesn’t happen because of health or just being too old to do those things. Do them now!!!!! Just another thing about this amazing woman 😍❤️😘

Tilly, what you did to your bedroom ceiling is amazing! You utilized every inch of your closet and dresser space to perfection. I love the home that your mother's love built. She rocks! You must be the envy of your college friends! I wish you much success with your studies and future careers.

Congratulations to Tilly, Holly, brother, and pup! What a great home that reflects Tilly's style and creates a safe and beautiful sanctuary. I've been talking to my 16 yo daughter about tiny house options for awhile now and recently the conversation has turned to me wanting to build something for her to keep. So wonderful to see Holly acting on her instincts and building a firm foundation on which her sweet daughter can build a beautiful life. Bright blessings on you all!

It’s not just a hand. The Hamsa Hand is a universal sign of protection, power and strength that dates back to ancient Mesopotamia. ... The word “Hamsa” means “five,” representing the fingers of the right hand. For Hindus and Buddhists, it symbolizes chakras, energy flow in the body, the five senses and the mudras that effect them.

[@gregoryclark7566]

The tiny home is set in such a wonderful area of Durango. Every part of the house has a utilitarian aspect. But also the style is so tasteful, stylish, and quirky in the best way. Tilly has a wonderful and loving Mom who has ensured that she will have a great place to live. This combined effort by a brother and sister shows what can be accomplished on a reasonable budget. Congratulations on a very successful endeavor.

[@carolleffingwell7428]

I live in Castle Rock Co. My youngest daughter and her family lived in Durango for 4 years before coming back down. This is a lovely mother who seems to want to help her daughter but expects her daughter to pay her back when she finds her job. So she’s not spoiling her daughter and giving her things on a SilverPlatter but helping her get a start and I think that shows a lot of love and teaching her daughter responsibility. They have created a lovely home. One of the prettiest I have seen. I am so much like her daughter I would expect to be able to walk in the loft with a full-size bathtub. LOL!

[@TinyHouseExpedition]

Thank you for the love!

[@hollymote4427]

[@oblomovtheunknown]

Right at the beginning Holly hit it on the nail - I mean we only use three or so rooms, and often even a smaller space inside. I always loved Frank Lloyd Wright's idea of windows letting in light and the outside becomes an extension of your interior space. When you for example have a tiny house you can multiply that space by many times by having large windows and skylights. I love what Holly did for her daughter with the assist of her brother. A big wow there and a tear too! Yes, the more I watch the THE stories the more we find that the tiny house movement is full of lovely people stories. By the way that tapestry is off the charts beautiful! Good design all over.

[@TinyHouseExpedition]

The people really are the best part for us! ❤️

[@sgrvtl7183]

I have watched a lot of Tiny Home videos and this one is more to my liking with standing up in bedroom/loft, larger bathroom, the layout is lovely. I wish the daughter well at Ft.

As someone who, at age 47 was suddenly and out of the blue, struck with chronic pain, I understand doing things before retirement. (Thankfully I had been blessed with many opportunities to travel for fun before age 47!) I adore their plan- so well laid out, and pray it works out, as they sure deserve it! I love out of the box thinkers! I’m hoping one of our five kiddos will buy a tiny house!

Tily reminds me of my favorite character from Incredibles, Violet. So sweet and beautiful. As for the AC open a window in the loft with a small fan pointing out to draw the cool air across, people forget without an out the ac cannot force more air into the small space. It will quickly be solved. Take the airfryer outside when you cook, prevent everything you own from amassing oil film.
