Woman's Strange Shed Goes Viral After Her Best Friend Takes A Look Inside
Jori Wilkinson was a woman on a mission. With a baby on the way, a house that she and her husband were trying to renovate and sell, and a pasture full of farm animals to care for, life apparently just wasn't enough of a challenge for her. So Jori added the ultimate DIY project to her busy schedule — building her own tiny house. While friends and family were skeptical of the new mom's ambitions, Jori's final unveiling of her hard work quickly shot her to internet fame and earned her the respect of DIYers everywhere.
Shed sweet shed
Rather than building the tiny home from scratch, Jori wondered about using a shed. She found an old, but sturdy shed that was only 400 square feet, knowing in her heart that it would someday be her new home. But another part of her asked the question, "Are we really going to fit in this thing?"
One problem at a time
The plan was set in motion. Jori and her husband Gage stayed at Jori's parent's house, paying rent, taking care of their farm and newborn son Kash, all while reconstructing the empty shed into a cozy home. Little by little, the shack of a shed transformed into a homeowner's dream.
Construction muscle
The first thing to go up was the walls of their home, which oftentimes had to be done late into the night. Gage was the perfect man for the construction job, and while he was the muscle of the operation, Jori was the brain. She laid out some brilliant ideas for the minimal space.
Genius designs
Jori's design genius was in full swing. She even drew up a floor map herself, with measurements and all the essentials of a home in mind. You could say that the two were crazy for tackling this arduous project, and you may be right, but the tag team had everything planned, including the perfect space for their son.
