Tiny Yellow House – Episode 1
Derek “Deek” Diedricksen is starting to put together a regular television-like online show focused on tiny houses. The first episode features his tiny Hickshaw. You can learn more about Deek and this house at his blog, RelaxShax.
Architect Roland Fabiani
Roland posted a link to his first tiny house design on my Facebook Page. It’s a beautiful garden house with walls that tip outward for a whimsical look.
DIY-Prefab by Malcolm A. White
One of my long-time readers, Malcolm A. White, has years of experience in construction & design that he is now sharing through his new blog DIY-Prefab. In fact I don’t think my own ebook, Tiny Prefab, would be nearly as complete had it not been for all of Malcolm’s feedback and input.
If you have an interest in self-fabricated tiny houses I highly recommend that you visit and bookmark Malcolm’s new blog. DIY-Prefab

Old Fashion Simple Living
This isn’t really about a tiny house but instead old-fashion simple living. Dick and Bonnie Cain live out in a remote part of West Texas without running water, electricity, or any other modern amenities. They live like folks used to live back in the 1800s and their story is really inspiring.

Unabomber or Thoreau
Artist and filmmaker James Benning has been building shed replicas for the past six months. One is modeled after Ted Kaczynski’s cabin and the other is inspired by Henry David Thoreau’s Walden cabin. Spooky stuff me thinks.
