Adorable Tiny House Built By Love, Family and Community

- This tiny house is beautiful. It's cleverly designed, skilfully built, warm, well insulated and cosy. What truly makes it a home though is the story of it's DIY construction and how a loving and supportive family and community came together to make this young woman's dream possible.

This is one of my absolute favourite tiny house tours so far. It completely embodies the spirit of a tiny house and how much it can mean to someone. I hope you enjoy this little house tour as much as we enjoyed filming it!

My mom's family wasn't rich, but they were 6 sons who were all skilled carpenters. They would get together and build a house for each family member when they needed it. Family can be wonderful if they are there to help each other.
Great family.
It's a blessing to have family members and friends who help you through life....... JOURNEY becomes alot EASIER..... isn't it
Wow Alyse that's incredible. I have an amazing supportive family that i appreciate so much. But i wish we could build each other houses! What an incredible financial boost that must be. A house for the cost of materials instead of paying an extra 50k in labour. Brilliant!
I will never understand the people who make rude, unkind remarks about the folks who’s tiny home sits on land owned by their parents. In many countries, it’s a time honored tradition amongst farm and ranch families with 3 or more generations sharing the land, but each in their own house. I think the ones who attack these folks are just spitefully jealous. Sad. I love that this young lady’s family helped her achieve her dream.
Darling, your mom's family was and is incredibly rich.
Everytime I watch tiny house I feel relaxed it makes me dream of having my own tiny house. hope to have own tiny home someday.
me to🙂
Me too 😢
Same here buddy 😊
Me too
My dream too I luv it
The way she talks about her family/dad is just so sweet and lovely. What a beautiful house!
Hello Camilla
Now if only the entire world could treat each other like this woman, her family and community and live in that amount of gratitude, giving and humility. We'd be absolutely set as a species and planet.
What a sweet lady and adorable tiny home but even more a testimony to loving relationships and kindness - made me smile the whole way through. Wonderful Dad too of course! Thanks for this - watching it was a real treat.
Hello Wendy
This one brought tears to my eyes.. she built it with her dad, the love she has for her house, and I love how you see the peace in her eyes. This one was great!
Tiny house people are some of the most humble and warm people. Downsizing to me is a spiritual movement that makes you appreciate more the material things you have and less the throw away consumerist lifestyles based on wanting more to fill the void created by modern expectations!!!!!!
@Bry 416 So what are your negative points to a tiny house?
Bravo very well put!!!
@Bry 416 You really need to be clearer the next time it sounded like sarcasm.
@Bry 416 Neither are nazi"s that is why I had to ask.
@Bry 416 You're living in this world too, you know. And whatever your opinions are, Yes, they're programmed too. So have a nice day 👍 And do something about all that repressed anger, it's unhealthy 😉
I love how close she is to her family. I miss the days when my pops and I drank coffee in Starbucks every morning and I lived on the other side of the city. He lives in different continent now. Family is so important.
She's blessed to have parents that were able to help her with purchasing/building her home, allowing her to have her tiny home on their property , and tapping into their electricity.
Yes shez blessed to have parents like that. My father died a month back and i had some loan on him. He's written in his will that the loan amount be recovered from me....can u beat that?
Robin Corprew sure she is blessed. That’s what family is all about. Helping each other. Especially a parent to a child? It doesn’t seem like she is anything short of grateful and extremely appreciative. She didn’t need to mention the loan from her parents but she did. And a loan is just that. How do you know she isn’t making monthly installments to them? And paying for her portion of electric? You seem almost angry or jealous that she has parents that are able to do that for her. My mom is not able to ever or has ever been able to help me with money once in my life. It doesn’t make me bitter when I see someone that does have parents who have the finances to help them.
She not on their property. If you would of listened she said that they live in town and found this property for her out of town.
goga babaroga yeah, it should be
@@mistiking8382 If YOU had listened closer you would have heard that her parents liveD, as in past tense, for awhile in town when they found this property but now they live on the same property she does.And she says she is attached to her parents power. How could she do that if they live all the way in town? So, how is it having someone point out how you should have listened closer?
Whenever he says "I would love to have a look inside". I scream "yeah...ME TOO ME TOO". hahaha
me too❤️❤️❤️😊😊😊
Bryce: Best host in the world 🌍👏😍
100% ! He is lovely!
This was one of the nicest stories on youtube. Her parents are a blessing to her. First buying the land and then helping her build her home. It's especially nice that she can wake up and have time with them. They all have their own space. I love it. And what a nice place Oregon!! I would like to visit there sometime.
Have you visited yet?
@@d.e.7467 No not yet. I'm still working. When I retire!!!
@@sheilayungk7815 Understood. There is much to see. I highly recommend Crater Lake and the coast.
@@d.e.7467 Thanks DE. I'll try to remember that.
Hello Sheila your smile is priceless
Favorite tiny house story for me, I think, because this home is not just a house made of lumber & supplies, but a dwelling place knit together with love. Also, in a time when too many young women wait to buy (or build) a house until they collide with the "right" person, this young woman has a relationship with family, friends & this home that love helped build, so she's not just in limbo, but living. I love that!
If my dad and I built a home together, I would never sell it. What a beautiful space and a lifetime of sweet memories. Blessings ~
This has to be THE best tiny house I've ever seen....its got an almost magical quality to it... this is what dreams are made of. God bless this amazing woman
A beautiful house made of love, hard work, and kindness.
" A house is made of walls and beams, A home is built with love and dreams "
Very well said. So beautiful phrase. Thank you.
Angelos this house is so special to her because so much love and care how to build this house was. I love the story how to build house
♥
Beautifully said!!!
What an incredible home. It's amazing that they built this themselves for $20,000. Beautiful!
Does that include land cost? Or it is the cost of the cabin.
Yessss
There’s something about living a more simpler life that is so relaxing and stress free, this is my goal.....❤️🏡
This would be a dream come true. She is very very blessed to have such loving and caring parents. Perfect video.
Hello April your smile is priceless
...old man praying over his food painting- one of my favorite childhood paintings.
She is so lovely and what a gorgeous home. I really love how the build was shared with her father, what an incredible experience.
It would have been nice to have met the dad also.
@@anneofgreengables1619 Some Amish don't want to be photographed.
This has to be one of my favorite stories. I have an Amish background and I bet my family and friends would enjoy a good old fashioned "house" raising! Maybe that is how we will build our tiny house once we have transitioned out of our van. Thank you for the idea Karissa!
At first it seemed like too tiny but it actually looks like perfect fit for her. It is really beautiful how her parents encouraged her into this. And her Dad going trough building with her. Perfect episode for Thanksgiving.
I completely agree. She is so fortunate to have such loving and supportive parents. Happy Thanksgiving!
Living Big In A Tiny House Thank you very much! Happy Thanksgiving to you too! :)
Emily Che Oh my goodness, Emily, I just have to laugh!!! I made some comments, and after I posted I am reading through other viewers comments and just saw yours. It is crazy, but we wrote almost exactly the same things-ha,ha!! That has never happened to me before, but I guess it just confirms what is portrayed in this video. At first I thought the size of the house was much too small-for me, the one thing I really would want is a comfortable sofa, one that a person can lay back on and lounge with a good book on a cold, rainy day. And that sofa in this Tiny House just does not seem comfortable at all. But then after viewing the entire video the entire house just seems super cozy, and it fits the owners personality. She seems like a very kind, gentle spirit and that feeling is clearly reflected all throughout the video.
This is the most BEAUTIFUL tiny house ever seen. I've watched many tiny house videos and this is the best. I love the surrounding greens, trees and environment too.
A very happy Thanksgiving to all of you! This is a very special Thanksgiving for me, because it's actually my very first one that I will celebrate in the USA! I have an Auntie who lives in Missouri and I have travelled to spend the day with her and my Uncle. She has lived in the US for a long time, and this is the first Thanksgiving that she will share with one of her New Zealand family members, so it's a very special occasion for us. I think this could be one of my favourite holidays. It's not about presents or anything superficial, just good food, connecting with loved ones and taking a bit of time out to reflect on the things that we can be thankful for in life. One of the things that I am very grateful for in life is all of you who subscribe, watch, like and share my videos and contribute to making this show possible. Thanks and love to you all!
How wonderful for you and WELCOME, Bryce! Thank you for sharing the movement here in USA. ~Smile!
Likewise Bryce enjoy your family today!
Happy Thanksgiving Bryce :) I'm thankful for you because your channel has really helped me learn and become a part of the tiny house movement
Happy Thanksgiving to you and welcome to the U.S. Thank you for all the wonderful videos!
Happy Thanksgiving! Love seeing the U.S. Tiny Houses!
This is one of my favourite houses - I just love the story. Some tiny houses are great for the technology and some for the great space saving ideas, others for the lifestyle and minimalist ideals. But this is about love, community and connection. I love that.
You can tell it's built with love
This is the first one to make me cry. Absolutely comforting.
easily one of the best looking exteriors.
I really like this one too.
Oh this is beautiful so much love went into this house. She makes me miss my late dad😍
Same here. And I think of the furniture we fixed together.
"surrounded by nature..."
and LOVE. Congrats on having loving parents. Not everyone has that.
I feel like he could come to the pretty mundane room I'm renting now and make me feel like it is the most beautiful place in the world made just for me 😂😊
Plzz translate ur conversation in urdu
What a tender, loving story.
The hosts name is Bryce Langston and you won't believe this video I found on him -
czcams.com/video/fPFeQnCjce0/video.html
DreamCloud wow!!!!
CoolCat Carolena tenderoni for sure!
CoolCat Carolena As the population grows, the house size shrinks. Pretty soon we will all be sleeping standing up.
Hello carolena your smile is priceless
Amish tiny houseraising. Oh my heart. That's so sweet.
Hands down, my favorite story this year. This home, it's builders and the owner, exudes charm and love. ~Smile!
She's at a level of peace that's so calming.
Love the style and color combination.
And how about that porch?
Ok. Ok. $18 000 - $20 000?!?! WOW! I"d pay $35 000 for her home if she was selling. As a note to Living Big in A Tiny House: The production value, consistent quality, length and info is top notch!!!
On sales now 50 thousands dallors
BY FAR...this is the GREATEST interview & tour of any/all the tiny house channels! Grateful to view this!
What a great comment! Thank-you so much. So glad you enjoyed it.
I truly felt the same way. The love of family is so prevalent and the home is so cozy and warm and precious. The lady who owns this special place seems like a genuine and warm person. Thanks for sharing. It's in my top 5 of tiny homes and interviews to date.
Agreed!
I would have to agree wholeheartedly...such a special place this wonderful tiny house.
Shirlene Kitchen no it’s not moron
Beautiful and wonderful that she had a very loving supportive family and friends to help her dream come true! Thanks for sharing~
Hello Brenda
Good ole mum and dad huh. lol She's very fortunate to have such supportive parents help her. Its a nice place. Very lovely.
This is a real tiny house, what a tiny house should be and stands for! Those luxurious tiny houses kind of don't have that soul, this one is alll soul and heart. Love from India. I cried watching this video. God bless the community that is so loving! Viva la tiny house movement! 💚💚💚
I just love this cozy home, she’s such a doll, i’m a mom that has 27 yo twin daughters that are extremely close to their dad, in a world that doesn’t often have that, made me love this tiny abode even more! What a lovely story! Thanks for sharing this!
I'm happy for you that 'in this world' as you say your daughter's are so close to their Dad. It's very true. I'm happy for your family. My Grammy raised me, and I too am one of the lucky to know that level of closeness and love. 💖💖💖💖
I am am in love with your home, your choices and your property. I admire you so and the best of everything. God bless and keep you safe.
The lady is so lovely and you can tell she truly feels at home in her tiny house i love that. The exterior is by far one of the most charming I have ever seen, the porch looks great
ps- the interviewer is really attractive
I have watched A LOT (all?) of your videos and this was one of my faves - not just a lovey home design and set up, but the vibes from the overall story of the background, the build, the love story, and such a beautiful soul in such a beautiful space. Wow 🙌🏼 I hope that life is continuing to be a magical experience for Karissa!
Hello kiwigirlmomo your smile is priceless
Such a lovely house and resident. You can see her light up so much when she talks about her house.
nille kk oi
Bryce I could tell you were truly very touched by her family and friends help on this project that is her home. I'm glad for her... wish all others had that kind of support.. and thank you for your show dear one. Hugs
I am an absolute woodland freak...I use my hands to craft from branches, twigs and driftwood it is something within me. It is a part of me and something I couldn't ..not.. do you know? So seeing this most beautiful nod to nature of a home made me feel so at home! Thankyou this lovely owner...and to you & your camerawoman Bryce, for bringing me this viewing. Thankyou for all your heart work. Stunning x
Hello
That's a beautiful home. I'm getting inspired to have a tiny home one day. These people seem so carefree and happy. She seems like a great friend.
The property looks so peaceful, i am dying of jealousy now 😌😌 and the house is so good..its wonderful she built it...and the pine thats used for the walls, so so beautiful
It's a beautiful home. She's delightful. This is one of my favs.
Hello ree
This is my favorite tiny house I've seen! You can tell how much she appreciates it! I don't often see them with knick knacks and I love that she's included them! (As I also love knick knacks lol!)
What a wonderful story. I don't know why anyone wouldn't love this episode. Thank you for your kind spirit. And for seeking out special people.
I am so ready to build my own tiny home. Now for the money part.......
Yup, that's always a big thing. Just save up as you can and do things bit-by-bit. You'll get there!
Haha, I know right? I've decided to save up for a 20 foot container first, as a step to free myself from rent in order to save heaps quicker for my THOW. Selling it should help my THOW funds, too, if I make a profit from doing a good job on it.
and me
start off with a trailer then slowly go from there.
Agreed. But she doesn't even need a trailer if start-up capital is a problem. A dark alley, behind some trees, just any dark, secluded spot is fine.
Bryce, Karissa's story has touched me more than any other video that you have done.
This is so special.
In such appreciation of her heart-full gratitude...as well as lovely living space:)
I absolutely love how when you get up to the loft, you always have the most infectious smile, like a child climbing into a fort for the first time.
Thank you for sharing not only these beautiful houses, but also the soul of those who call them home.
Hello kate
Awwww Karissa is just so sweet. Loved it everything about this place xx
Melanie Kate Love. And the great help from wonderful parents.
What a lovely setting.
Everytime I watched tiny houses I feel relax and enjoy and dreaming having my own soon. 😍
No space wasted.. What a cozy life.
Out of the many Tiny Homes Ive seen so far - this is one of my top favorites. I love every detail about this house, and never mind the land that it sits on - its like living in your very own private Paradise. 🏡❤
My apartment is 2,000 sq feet and my mom keeps telling me " _how do you live in such a small place? its asphyxiating! You need to look for something bigger._ " - she doesnt know it yet, but Im moving into a 700 sq ft place within the next 3 weeks. SURPRISE MOM! ( _I bet she'll avoid visiting me after this!_ ) 😁
I live in senior housing...in a 320 sq.foot apt. It almost feels like a tiny home. But I'm three stories up and not at all easily accesable (spell?) to the earth. I just put 12 small pots out on the balcony and planted them with veggie seeds and a few plants...
lynn reed Think of it as a tiny home, and it will be one soon, if you accessorise it like she did.
@@Indusxstan Thank you Romi.....your comment helps....
My house is 1200 square feet and it's just too big to truly keep clean most of the time.... dust gathers everywhere, even though I totally decluttered and became 90% minimalist. Less to clean equals a cleaner house 💖
This episode was for me like a meditation. This tiny home has its own soul, what was created by these beautiful people. Thank you Bryce to make this video! Wish the best!
this is one of the best tiny houses so far. the simplicity, the love...
True love never sleeps...it dances in your dreams, it vibrates within you, and is your companion beyond this journey. Much love to you! ❤ Namaste.
I hear and feel the love she expresses about her family and how much of a gift it was to create this home for her. A true blessing
This woman has the voice and the vibe thag bestselling book autors have when they talk with Oprah :D
Karissa's home is beautiful! You can feel the love that built it. Thanks for featuring it on your channel.
I find myself pausing these videos whenever the owners show their books. Can tell so much about a person by what is on the shelf....
Lol, I did the same thing. I even cocked my head to the side to see.
Haha! Now I’ll have to go back and do that. Love that she loves books and journals.
nice to hear I'm not the only one who does this!, too bad you tube won't go frame by frame
Carolyn Marie I do that, too!!!!
God bless you. You are an amazing young lady. Treasure your family and you will always be blessed. Lovely home, lovely heart.
What a lovely, sweet lady. A beautiful story and a beautiful house. xx
Absolutely lovely. It is so cozy and decorated so tastefully.
I was telling about these videos to a friend of mine and he is recovering from a spine surgery and is disabled at the moment. He says these videos disheartened him because all the videos seem like despite these houses being on a level by the nature of the whole shipping container style housing, they are clearly for able bodied people. I would love to see some videos of tiny houses owned by people with mobility issues and I sure hope they exist!
"the house is made by the people I love" wow, I like it!
The way her face lit up when she talked about working on this with her dad was so precious. Lovely
Your videos and findings just keep getting better and better, Bryce! So many cozy ideas to incorporate into my dream tiny house
Thanks so much! Glad you liked this one. Hopefully I'll be touring your home one day!
Yes, Bryce it is truly. Beautiful house. However, you truly are a beautiful person. I hope she feels happy in that special house all her life. Thank you Bryce for your gentleness, kindness & compassion. You are amazing🌞🌠🌻🌲!!!
My new habit now, watching tiny house videoso!
Such a quirky unique design this one!
A. R. 😁😁😁 It's my new habit too. I can't get enough of the vids
I truly feel the love and connection she has for her tiny house. It''s lovely when you feel you belong where you live. Nice
The love story is beautiful❗ I pray she always gets to keep the home 🏠 and that the home is a legacy to her future 🤗
Hello Susan
Very happy young woman! And it is mostly because her tiny house family and friends! How wonderful!
OMGGG her eyes is so beautiful... really beautiful
Karissa such Gratitude for sharing your Love Story and the building of your home.......... I feel hopefulllllll
I am so dreaming of downsizing into a tiny house or treehouse. Just need to get our boys through college and then it is on!
Karen Culpepper keep in mind that treehouses require a lot of maintenance because trees grow!
we are talking about doing a tiny house in the spring. we are a family of 6. we are going to videos on the journey we want to do with this. for now we are doing videos on the farm makeover we want to do in the spring, doing the tiny house will be part of our journey. if you would like to see our channel and see what we are about.
Karen Culpepper i wish the best for your future project! :D
Dustin Dean I looked you up and subscribed. Thanks for sharing your info.
Karen Culpepper glad you subscribed to us
Is it weird that the sentiments in this video brought me to tears?
you're very lucky to have parents that support you. I had that but it was taken away by a very weak and Wicked relative. very beautiful.
I have to say I am drawn to the earthy warm feeling that a tiny house can offer. Just beautiful..
Amazing parents, great young lady, beautiful spot and scenery.
I love how your dad and you work together and people came alongside you in an Amish building. God bless you
This was such a special interview. How wonderful to feel such love in your home.
Every word she spoke is lovely. Please go back and visit her again
Has to be my favorite tiny house you have featured. The story of love and community put this build over the top of WONDERFUL! Thanks for sharing this.
Beautiful Home, beautiful Heart. Such a pleasure getting to meet Karissa. Everything about this episode was inspiring soul food. Love-in-action. Karissa was shining with contentment - such a rare quality. Big thank you xx
Bryce, Just when I think you can't top yourself....you do ! This is such a gorgeous loving home and a beautiful young woman who is part of it. There isn't anything, I don't love about this house. Karissa has made her home fit her and the things she loves. She's a lucky young woman to have a family help her build her dream in such a gorgeous place. Silverton is a lovely area of Oregon, I've visited the Silverton Falls many times. It's so nice to see someone who truly appreciates what she has and the people who have helped her along the way. Thank you for sharing once again, a lovely home, truly great owners and what is truly important in addition to the sticks & bricks of a house. Bryce, I hope you are enjoying your first Thanksgiving here in the states. I wish you Happy Holidays and Stay safe in your travels.
Super sweet! Karissa, her journey with so much love from family and friends and her home
You have such a great channel Bryce, you’ve earned everyone of those subscribers and you never disappoint. This is a splendid house and you are a brilliant interviewer.
While listening to her talk, you can almost feel the warmth of her relationship with her parents! How come we don’t see this side of America that much!
I want one more thing to see in this tiny home 🏡 is a sky window!
Then it's exactly my dream tiny house ♥
Hello Susan
I love this house! And how her family and friends helped her - an Amish-Mennonite community. That's beautiful.
Also, that her sofa is made from her grandmother's dresser, the sheepskin rug in her loft is from her sister, and it was her brother's idea to angle the wood by the sofa.
The leaded glass window in the bathroom made by a friend with glass from a local library is just gorgeous with the blue and green.
That's why I love watching these Tiny House videos. Each home is built with such personable creativity and care.
I really enjoyed watching tiny house's it beautiful
Thank-you! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Her voice is so pleasant to hear..Her relationship with her parents n family very healthy, supporting each other very important. Great sharing
I absolutely love the exterior! I also like the slanted wood in the living room, beautiful. And everyone coming 2gether to help is so beautiful! 💚
U can feel the love and care that has gone into this very unique and very beautiful home.
