IT'S FINALLY BEGUN!
I'm so excited that our foundation of our house has started! Besides the trailer the floor is one of the most important parts of our entire tiny house project! I can't believe that it's finally here!
First we had to move the trailer. We were hoping to build it on the back acre of the house we are living in but it just wasn't going to work. By the time we got started working the grass was growing over-top of the trailer and doing any of the work under the trailer just wasn't going to happen. There would be way to many bugs and creatures living back there. Not to mention the fact that there is no electricity in the back and we would have had to spend several hundred dollars on extension cords just to get the power we needed to run the tools to build and we need every penny to go into this house. So instead it was moved out front to sit next to our house to give us easy access to power and some small shelter from our porch for tools that will be used throughout the whole building process.
The next step was getting all the materials gathered into one place. Hubby headed to the store and bought all the new supplies we would need. He had to make two trips because even with his large diesel truck he couldn't get it all. (The picture above is only one trip). We also need to stack all the pallet wood nicely so we can use it for the flooring when we get there. We still need to breakdown a few more pallets but we have most of the flooring ready when it's time.
The first steps to our tiny house have started! It's so exciting to actually be moving forward with our dream!
