Is there a Bodega in your future?
January 4, 2012
Did you know that the Bodega plans are on sale this month? It’s the smallest of our houses on foundations but it’s big on style. I personally would love to have one with the half loft. Image how cool that cathedral ceiling would look like in the living room? Make sure you get your hands on the plans before the month is over. If you could build a Bodega, where would you put it? What modifications would you make? Would you add the extra bedroom?
A Little Yellow Fencl in the California Sun
December 19, 2011
For all of you who wonder if you could build your own Tumbleweed with little to no building experience, I’d like you to meet Ella and her Little Yellow Fencl:
You will love her story. First of all, where can we get neighbor like hers? You’ve got to read this post. How kind! Ella really lets you in on the process and it shows in every post. Oh, and the pics? AMAZING!
Did you catch this one important detail in her first post? Ella went to the workshop we held in Los Angeles. We strongly believe that going to the workshop in your area is an essential first-step if you intend to build a Tumbleweed. Be sure to grab a seat in a city near you. We’ll be adding more cities in the coming months. In the meantime, spend a few minutes (or hours) checking out Ella’s build. No building skills? No problem! Go Ella, go!
Keeping Up With Kendall
September 28, 2011
It is with great pleasure that we re-introduce to you one of our favoriteTumbleweed builders. Her name is Kendall and what she is trying to accomplish with her Lusby build is a great inspiration to all of us at Tumbleweed HQ.
In an attempt to do something about the rampant homelessness she observes daily, Kendall started her own company NerdGirlHomes. She set the goal for herself to build a Tumbleweed to donate to a family in need or have a raffle of the house and give the proceeds to a related cause.
As you can see from these pictures, she is well on her way. Kendall embodies the type of industrious spirit and open-minded determination that is the hallmark of a Tumbleweed builder. Her example is worthy of imitation and your support. She is accepting donations of time and funds to assist her build. Please visit her site here:www.nerdgirlhomes.wordpress.com.

You’ve probably asked yourself the same question that Collin and Joanna asked themselves as they settle in to their Tumbleweed: Where in the world am I going to put my stuff? Find out how they managed to fit their lives in side a tiny home here. Make sure to watch the video to see how they pulled it all together.
