Secluded off-grid cabin built from free available materials
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
I'm excited to share that I've built a tiny, off-grid cabin using mostly free materials available to everyone! It's a humble but cozy space where I can escape the hustle and bustle of daily life and enjoy a snowy weekend of seclusion and comfort. The cabin is located in a remote area, surrounded by breathtaking natural beauty. It's the perfect place to relax, unwind, and reconnect with nature. I've taken care to make the cabin as comfortable as possible, with a warm cozy space, outdoor shower and a kitchenette for cooking simple meals.

Yeah, I spend a lot of time looking for interesting items for my cabins. Sometimes I think it would be easier to just run to the Home Depot and purchase it.

Guys, Here is our Savior HalleluYAH translates “Praise ye YaH” YaH is The Heavenly Father YaH arrives via the TENT OF MEETING YaH was Who they Crucified for our sins YaH was Crucified on an Almond TREE - Ancient Semitic Cuneiform of Moshe (Moses) - Isa Scroll (The Original Isaiah) Isaiah 42:8 "I am YaH; that is my Name! I will not yield my glory to another or my praise to idols.” Isaiah 43:11 “I am YAH, and there is no other Savior but Me.” Isaiah 45:5 “I am YaH, and there is none else.”
Beautiful job, nothing better than building something beautiful out of other peoples waste!

That door looks so good on the cabin! also nothing beats taking a hot shower surrounded by nature!

Your tiny home is absolutely outstanding! I would never have guessed that it was made from scraps. I'd love to build one for a potting shed and another one for outdoor storage. I'd even be happy for them to look more hodge-podged and patched together than yours! Paint would tie everything together but the eclectic look would still be there. Is that an RV door? It's very nice. Sweet little porch too. Thanks for sharing your project. It's a great inspiration!
