Other things to note Our Aloha Tiny House evolved over time. While we lived in the original house on the property, a 600 sq ft retrofitted fishing shack from the 1920s, we needed extra storage. We wanted our storage shed to have curb appeal in the neighborhood and loved ideas from library books about tiny houses. Our tiny house plans changed throughout the building process based on what materials we could salvage and puzzle together. Most of the materials were recycled from wood salvage lots, liquidation, and 2nd hand companies. We did all the work ourselves (okay, mostly Tony with assist from Attina) and we lived in it ourselves when we tore down the fishing shack and built our house. After our building project the tiny house became a guest room but friends kept asking to rent it long-term. After one of our long-term renters moved out, a family member suggested Airbnb and we have had a blast hosting and sharing our Aloha Tiny House with the Airbnb community. Our tiny house continues to evolve and we have recently renovated the kitchenette and bathroom.
