When you go tiny, you never go back!
Several years ago, when tiny homes finally kicked in and people started buying them like crazy, Cynthia jumped on the bandwagon too.
She exchanged her traditional life and house for a tiny home of only 11 feet width inside.
Nestled in a tiny house community in North Carolina, Cynthia’s home is a piece of sunshine, and I truly mean that.
Wherever she could, Cynthia decorated with sunflowers, bringing light, joy, and nature into her little piece of tranquility.
The tiny house radiated hope and positivity, just like the sunflowers itself.
The Pretty Yellow Tiny Home
Of course, the house had to be painted yellow! What other color would fit The Sunflower?
With a facade covered in small yellow wooden planks with white trim fenestration and a small wooden deck at the front entrance, The Sunflower looks more like a dollhouse than an actual house.
But, once you come in, you’ll see no Barbies are allowed, only sunflowers and the woman who loves them!
Where’s Waldo, But With Sunflowers
If where is Waldo was a sunflower, this house would be playing it. Although the place has visible sunflower details, you still don’t see them all and end up surprised every time you see a new detail looking back at you.
The owner of the house did the best she could do to make her 11 ft of width functional. The living room is small, but yet with plenty of cozy seating spots and windows that let in so much natural light. The house is sunkissed like nothing before, and the small sunflower details are definitely loving the attention.
Since this is a tiny house, the open space concept was the only way to go.
There’s A Surprise Everywhere You Look
The kitchen is right next to the living room and it’s an impressive one. Whenever I see a full kitchen instead of a kitchenette in a tiny home I get excited. I love how the owner used basic and classic elements and only added sunflower details to pop out.
Honestly, a yellow kitchen would be too much, not to mention yellow sofas…
The traditional white kitchen with raised panels (the similar beauty I’ve got at home) needed a bit of color and those small sunflower details and kitchen rugs did the work.
Lots Of Space For Interesting Trinkets
What surprised me was definitely the dining area opposite the kitchen. I was not expecting to see one in a small home, but here it is. With additional cupboard space, this dining area can host guests when they come over and no one would be cramped up.
I appreciate how the owner thought everything through and didn’t overcrowd her house with too many details. Small, but memorable details are always a better choice.
Sunflowers And Smiles Everywhere
Lastly, in the back of the house, is a comfortable bedroom with a nice queen bed and lots of room for storage and moving around.
I know bedrooms can be small because all you do is spend the night inside, but at least some comfort would be nice. This is the idyllic bedroom for a tiny house, functional, comfortable, and still on the smaller size of the scale.
Naturally, sunflower details had to be in this room too, but this time, in the form of a really cool, artistic bedding.
Cynthia loves her sunflowers, but she loves her tiny house even more.
One Happy Woman
It’s so nice to see a woman so devoted to her passion. Everywhere you look there are sunflowers, making you smile, feel happy, and like you’re at home.
When a house finally gets that feeling, you can call it home.
Cynthia’s home, the sunflower, is a home we all want to snuggle inside and feel peaceful. It was her moment of realization that she should turn to truly important things.
You don’t need a big house if you feel miserable. You need… a sunflower.
