Being tiny in a tiny house just for fun

 Having a funny breakfast!






Window frames in the bedroom

In our bedroom, the window frames are being finished.

David took them all out, sanded them and painted them with wood treatment varnish. 

In the meantime, we took out all the cobwebs from this area (stagnant energy, old, in these corners is not good mojo) and soon we are going to have the curtain rails and the curtains.

So far, we have been living/sleeping with the bright full moon in our faces (specially on my side!) but that is about to change!







Cups in place - proper tea and coffee are on the way!

You know when you are in love with some details of some other houses?

Or a dream that you always has since you imagined owning a house?

Well, since always I wanted cups hanging from a shelf. Really! Simple but very much in tune with old traditional Portuguese kitchen cabinets. Since they would be to big to have them here in the Tiny House, we managed to make a dream coming true but slightly different!

I went to the local hardware shop Supermaco (contacts in the contact folder of this website) and bought the hooks (we call the, “camarões” in Portuguese. They only had silver. No problem! 0,10€ each. David painted the, with black spray paint and here they are:


After this, the simple and not so hard work of attaching them to the shelf and to the coffee box.






Oh, I’m in love more and more with our kitchen! With time we can see what works and what doesn’t and we can make the changes needed. So, here it is.
Our new tea and coffee setting.
Ready to go and to enjoy by ourselves and with friends and family a proper tea and a proper coffee.

Art in the kitchen

 A small detail that makes such a difference!

This is a postcard from a painting done by Beth Richardson.

A tea moment in the kitchen, in blue, like the kitchen.

Love it!

Looking at it now

 Looking at our tiny house with so much gratitude.

Every little thing is precious.

It may look untidy (because it is!), but it’s worth every single day to just look and appreciate this house of ours.
