Tiny House Makeover Room by Room

Living Room/Bedroom/Office

For a couple of years now, I have been living in a tiny house I call "The Leaky Cauldron". It is a one bedroom stone house on the corner of the most wonderful neighborhood in a suburb of Indianapolis. The best part of living here, my next door neighbor is my best friend. The Leaky Cauldron is also where I create beautiful furnishings and projects. It's also where I create the savory dish combinations for The Midwest Food Blunders and More blog.

This is me :-) I am opening my Home to all of my readers.

Sharing my trials with you, one by one :-)

From Heartbreak to Home Makeover

Part One

Taking a living room and converting it to a living room, bedroom and office is one of the hardest projects for a designer. Especially when the house is shaped like a triangle. First things first... I need a closet. So I had my friend come over and put in a removable closet (just in case I wanted to move it around in the future).

This is the space I chose for the build.
I decided that it should be a 10x10 size closet.

This build took about 3 hours.
Buy a bunch of 2x4's and sheets of wood and you have a closet. There was a leftover shelf from another project that we added as well.

You know what they say, it's the little details of a project that really matter. This inside the wall shoe rack is a super space saver.
I also added curtains on the closet instead of doors.
It's always a great idea if you like change.

The only problem was... Where to put the light fixture once it was done. So I came up with a temporary solution to the initial problem.
