In case you were wondering...

This blog exists to encourage all those who have ever wanted--and needed!--a tiny getaway close to home. A workshop, playhouse, garden shed, sanctuary, mini-greenhouse, studio, home office; whatever it is you need, it IS doable, with some sacrifice, imagination, and compromise.

It helps if you're handy, too.

Yet another link...a gorgeous little vardo...

Oh, my, I believe I'm in love...again.  Check out this place featured in the Tiny House Blog:

Though I would NEVER trust a woodstove that close to a wall or curtain.  EEEEEeeeek!

What a fascinating blog...

Check this one out: Life in 120 Square Feet --it's inspiring!

We don't LIVE in the Shed of Reality, though we could.  We have heat, a source of water, a hot plate for tea or cooking.  We even have AC, which is a necessity for me after a bout of heat exhaustion a few years ago.  I do spend hours a day here, year round...it's sanctuary, studio, sacred space, wonderful for entertaining a few friends, healing, peaceful, challenging, and always something to see beyond those big windows.

It makes me aware of what is actually necessary.  For me, that means books and art supplies and a comfortable chair (or two, for sharing).

Mindfulness is almost inevitable, here.  It's a great place to meditate, exercise, paint, journal, or make music.  I've never been sorry we spent that IRS refund to make all this possible!

Another cool link!

I like the concept AND the execution here:  http://tinyhouseblog.com/stick-built/ecopod-holidays-homes/

And I'd love to have some kind of passive solar heat in the winter...
