When Winter Feels Too Long We Decide To...

I can happily report that since installation, this stove has been used every single day so far, but we still haven't made a dent in our firewood supply because the logs it takes are so tiny ; ) Overall, the installation of our new wood burning stove was a breeze, minus a little debacle with some spray paint--but lesson learned! If anyone finds some brush on high heat white paint, send us a link!

Another big part of this installation process was learning a little bit more about design when it comes to space layout. Removing a chunk of shelves really opened up the room and makes it feel so much more comfortable and spacious. And having to feed a fire while working at your computer is actually a really nice, calm distraction--so whenever I build my next office space, I will definitely think about doing something similar again, because its so so nice!

Big love,
Dana, Lou, Max & Freja

OMG the night time lapse was BEAUTIFUL! Well done guys.

Changes the feel of the space so much! The wall of drawers was a tad bit suffocating, before. I love it.

Great job, Lou !!!! Looks so nice, and you're right. The room does look larger.

Okay - now I want a tiny fireplace! -- I don't think I really need one - I just want one. Thanks for the updates... -- Cheers

This is one of my very favorite of your videos ever. First of all, NICE work, both of you.
I love the tiny stove space, the concrete, the stove pipe, all of it. I also loved the glimpse of night sky !
Hugs to you all!

In Norway, where i come from we make what we call nail “tents” it’s kind of wooden small ish areas outside caravan so you have more space than you can comfortably sit in wintertime, due winter camping.( lots of people do this due to ski resort) personally I would consider this in between your living area and kitchen space. So when the cold winter storm hits you don’t need to get dressed to go to your kitchen.❤ kind of like how you build your out house but since you have done a lot of a lot already it will be easier ❤ love you videos and all your efforts, since I have a off grid cabin with a lot simpler ways of living I get inspiration to get it into a better shape ❤

The concrete slab is beautiful. It has inspired me to make a concrete countertop for my garage renovation. Great result, Lou.

Love the white heat shield. I did my hearth and wall with large format white tiles and love it!

Great work! I love the difference from what you’ve learned over the years of building! Love how proud you are of yourself when you do something well, too. Thanks for sharing your adventure, as always. Very best to your sweet family.

Hi Lou! I just wanted to give you a tip, if you'd make a cross member to the outdoor wood storages they'll stiffen up by a lot! Just a small plank from top back corner to the bottom back corner :)

[bajaboolie]
