Cabin

IMG_6144.jpg

We’re building a 240sq ft cabin!

This little website is a living document of our process of building an affordable 4 season 240sq ft + sleeping loft cabin. Building can feel overwhelming but if you break it down into a manageable work flow it’s possible to GC (general contractor) your own cabin and save a bundle.

This lovely little cabin is in collaboration with my friends over at Build.com - the best spot to get anything for a build or renovation project delivered to your door.
