I thought my daughter Lucy was crazy when she bought the shipping container.
It was unsightly as well as I couldn’t figure out what Lucy was going to do with it.
Lucy put it on the piece of land that borders ours, as well as asked what my friend and I thought of her up-to-date home. I stood there looking at it, while thinking Lucy was going crazy. Lucy told me that in a few months the dwelling would be great as well as you would never believe it was once an old shipping container. Over the next month, my friends and I heard saws going as well as metal cracking as the work crews converted the old shipping tote into a home. There were cutouts for all of the doors as well as windows, even though I was wondering what they would do that would make the inside of the container look like a home. Right before Christmas, Lucy’s shipping tote dwelling was completed as well as I got the full tour. There was a full lavatory, a utility kitchen with a small kitchen table, as well as a small living room. A spare bed was hidden in the sofa as well as chair, as well as all of Lucy’s small appliances were tucked away in cupboards as well as hidden storage spaces. The family room was quite small, but there were drawers under the bed, as well as closet space between the walls as well as the lavatory. Lucy had room for a queen-sized bed. I thought her shipping tote dwelling was going to be tiny, but it is simply perfect for one as well as maybe two people. I was so satisfied with the look of Lucy’s shipping tote home. I told my fiance if my friend and I ever decided to downgrade, I was going to look into getting an old shipping container, as well as turning it into a small shipping tote home.
