Living Big in a Tiny House

08/02/201908/08/2020by GlenLeave a Comment

If you've been following my website and blog for a while you'll know that I am really interested in tiny homes and living as much of a minimalist lifestyle as possible. I have a playlist on my YouTube channel where I save my favourite tiny home video tours and to be totally honest the only feed I am interested in now is Bryce's from Living Big in a Tiny House. Bryce is from New Zealand and he travels around the world visiting as many tiny homes as possible. His videos are so well produced and the homes are breathtaking! Check out my last post about tiny home inspiration.

Tiny Home Inspiration

16/03/201807/08/2020by Glen3 Comments

There are so many incredible tiny homes available to view online. YouTube is one of my favourite platforms for inspiration and I have created a playlist of these on my channel. This week I am featuring six tiny homes I have in the playlist and my reasons for bookmarking them. As the months/years go on and I get more inspiration for tiny homes I will continue to update this playlist on my YouTube channel.

After months of work and clearing through my belongings I have finally finished my bedroom and living room. I have included some images and videos in this post to show what I have done with the space and the furniture I've decided to use.

Bedroom Decorated

My bedroom has been decorated and the larger furniture has been moved in. I have the bed, mattress, sofa-bed and television with units. I wanted to document the full move-in process including decorating and stylising my bedroom on my blog so I'll be posting again when there is more progress made. I have popped some images below of the decorated room from different angles with captions.

Minimalist Living

23/02/201807/08/2020by Glen2 Comments

My journey to living minimally started when I decided to have a clear-out every spring. It was an annual occurrence for me to decide what I needed to keep and what I didn't use anymore. This was something I have done for as long as I can remember but from 2010 onwards before university was [...]

All Moved Out!

If you've been following my blog you'll know that I was getting ready to move out of my rented apartment. The key handover took place at the end of January and I thought I'd post photos of the apartment here. I managed to sell a lot of items and recycle, donate and dispose of others. The main reason behind this was that I am scaling down my belongings to move into a converted garage room.

Apartment Clear-Out

08/09/201702/08/2020by Glen2 Comments

Since attending university from 2011-2013, I decided to reduce the amount of 'stuff' I owned. This resulted in me having to become pretty ruthless with things I had hoarded throughout my life and whilst studying in Cardiff. Something I will say for being a graphic design student is that we keep anything that has a nice design. Books, packaging, greetings cards, flyers... You name it, we collect it!
