Living room bench.
I had the lovely task of building the living room bench.
We were going to buy a cushion for the bench, but then we decided to take all the blankets that we own and wrap them up into a cushion. This means we won’t have to find a storage place for our blankets or buy an unnecessary cushion... win win!
Plumbing in the Tiny Tack House has been underway. We had a certified plumber/electrician to oversee all of our plumbing and electrical work on the house. Christopher was insisted to do all the work himself, a nice learning experience. He hooked up two connections from the outside water fill hook up. One line runs directly into the 40 Gallon Water Tank and the other runs directly into the 4 Gallon Hot Water Heater.
Shower hook up
The other side of the wall where the shower hook up is.
Our half cut wine barrel will be used as the water basin of the shower. Getting it into place for the shower drain.
