This Is What Happens When A Woman Gets Sick Of Divorce And Mortgages. And It’s Brilliant.

Macy Miller is an architect from Idaho that had a BIG dream about a tiny house. She had always wanted a place of her own, but the thought of a mortgage sickened her after she lost her home to foreclosure after getting divorced. So, her dream revolved around building a compact, but beautiful home. For two years, Macy worked on the 196 square-foot home, dedicating her free time to building the small paradise. Finally, construction has finished on her little hideaway… and it’s hard not to be jealous of this place, no matter how small it looks on the outside. After all, it only cost about $11,000.

Macy Miller didn’t have a lot of experience with construction, but she was willing to learn.

Not to mention her home foreclosure.

She was determined to make Tiny House a reality and avoid mortgages forever.

The most expensive part of the house was the composting toilet, which was $2,000.00.

During construction, she fell off of the roof and broke her back.

But even that didn’t break her spirit.

The tiny home is eco-friendly.

She built it on a flatbed so she could take this little masterpiece anywhere.

A fine example of a woman, a woman that provides for her family.

That's cool. I never dream of a big home even of I was filthy rich. Just a small comfortable one.

She basically lives in a trailer.

I like her place, though. I approve. You could fit a hundred of those types of homes in Melonhead's house.

What I'm trying to say is he has a big house.
