You better plug the extension cord hole with steel wool and spray foam, mice won’t chew on steel wool, also the solar like cord hole with caulk or there will be bees and all manner of creepy crawling insects.
Attach a power strip with surge protection and USB plug built in to the wall and plug the extension cord into that. It's still not to code but he won't be moving the cord around.
I’ve done just that, clothes I kept saving loads of older outfits (for what? 😂) they had never actually even seen daylight for years 🙄 … I was brutal , broke my heart but they had to go …. Straight to our local Dog rescue charity shop and I really do feel so much better for doing it … I’m planning another wardrobe raid after Christmas 🎄😊
Spray foam the holes for the ext cord and lamp cord. Down the road, insulate, dry wall, proper electrical and maybe a lean-to bathroom/toilet/shower/sink setup.
Looks nice. One idea for electrical is to run a sub panel 30 amp that will power some outlets lights / fan’s and a window unit. I love that shed I’m sure he’ll enjoy it.
It’s so crazy that y’all haven’t used that stuff in years and you still rented a storage unit. I did the same thing when I moved. Thankfully I realized for the yearly cost of the storage unit, I could buy the non-sentimental stuff I was storing.
Not everything in the storage unit hadn’t been used in years. The stuff that was never used was thrown away, sold, or donated, while the things we do still need and use got stored
@@margaretskiff Great job figuring out what you actually needed to keep. Buying stuff new when I needed it was cheaper than paying over $3,000 a year for my storage unit. That still blows my mind. Anyway, great job on creating a room for your brother. I bet he was happy to come back to his own space.
I think it's wonderful. The transformation is amazing. If your brother doesn't end up being there long term, you hv a money maker. I think you did a terrific job.
Turned out just fine that´s awesome! I built a tiny cabin about that size on my property here in rural Mexico, funny just yesterday I did the same for a while used it as a storage but finally it´s ready to rent as an Airbnb. I´m sure your brother will be very comfy.
That's looks wonderful! Also it's so cool that it was completed in a short amount of time! On a side note, blows my mind how many people think it's okay to offer unsolicited advice on what they think you need to do about various aspects of your property, resources, and belongings, etc. Just wow
The great thing about advice is you can take it or leave it. Read the tips and then adopt them or toss them, no harm done. At least that is how I see it. If the tipsters are mean-spirited, block them!
If you post why wouldn't you expect comments? Too bad it's sometimes rude, negative or otherwise! The person posting is trying to make some money after all by clicks, right?
A few folk know enough to prevent fires / mold and are not wrong to comment . Others are like you built something I like , I want to build similar , let's chat . If it's mean block them.
Personally I love the comment section. So many great tips and advice. You never know who's watching, it could be an expert in the field offering you free advice that you would have to normally pay for. As other comments stated, don't throw the baby out with the bathwater. God bless and have a Happy Thanksgiving 🍰🦃🍽❤
That's a pretty big shed! Nice job, especially thrifting clothing for his arrival. Consider maxing out on solar, and a solar battery for night. That cord at some point is either going to trip someone or accidentally get cut. Maybe your brother can insulate and wallboard the walls, as well as raise the floor, and build a front porch.
Is your brother still in the shed? If not, I'm curious what you did. This seems like a great little pad to rent out as an AirB'n'B kind of thing. You'd probably make significantly more from it than what you're spending on storage for that stuff.
Looks good-nice job! Hope you sealed it all up w/sealant as the mice will come back in & destroy everything! What about heat or did I miss that in the video?
@@awesomeniecy9242 It is not always hot here in Virginia. It can be bitter cold at times, 5 F. Sometimes Summer comes early, and sometimes the Winter comes early and stays late. Just depends.
Yeah that guy is going to freeze to death 😅. You want to insulate that place and throw in some interior walls. You might have to fur out those walls to make room for the insulation. And you’re going to have to do a bit of framing for the roof because heat rises which will result in a lot of heat loss. No outside heater is going to be able to keep up with the loss of heat come winter.
I said the same thing. When we did basically the samething for my son when he was college only ours was a little bigger we insulated it and put corrugated cardboard on the walls and put a space heater out in it because we had to do it in a hurry, that next spring we put pulled the cardboard off and put dry wall up, added a small kitchenette it in with a microwave and 9 function Airfryer and refurbed a small pot belly wood burning stove that I found on Facebook Marketplace for next to nothing to put in it so the only time he had to come into the house was use the bathroom and shower. He lived in it for all four years of college and 2 years after until he bought a small little house.
I'm a probably get 3 of the portable solar generators that sell for about $600 and open up like a suitcase so that I always had. Stand By in the event that there wasn't Sun but I like about that solar panel that I'm referring to is. It is a pass through meaning it will accept energy from the sun while you are using it.
Nice Shed Turn out bedroom just place calling into holes where uour cords are coming through for lights and electric because you want to keep out Critters permanently with some form of sealant or Rubber seals NICE UNIT but where is his shower and compos Unit
The can also spray foam the walls and use the left over for the floor spray foam is amazing and also whool if she can find someone that has sheep or alpha there whool is the best thing for insulation ever
Idk where you live but It's going to get awfully cold in there during the winter because it's not insulated. I would have at bare minimum put some roll insulation and some cardboard for the walls. When I turned my shed into a bedroom for my son when he came home from college for holidays and that's what we did the first winter, then in the spring we drywalled it and painted it.
@@jeepsanddragons I understand that but once it's insulated it can easily become a tiny house again during the winter, idk if you know this but SHIT HAPPENS sometimes. You never know what might happen, a family member may get sick or brother may lose his job and have to move back home, there's a MILLION reasons why to go ahead and build it out just in case.......
Hopefully by winter he finds another place. Without some insulation it will be like sleeping outside. Otherwise real good job. He should really like it.
Since mice wee and poo through everuthing, I really don't think it's safe to drink from the coffee machine that was in there. It's not worth the bacteria or diseases carried. Great job though. I'm sure he loved it! ❤
Don't know where you guys live, but that set up might work for the summer, but won't work for the winter if you are up north. A roll or two of insulation and some cheap paneling might have made it weather worthy for all year. Cute setup, however!
What's the point of having an outdoor tiny facility without a; sink, toilet, shower, or mini fridge?? This means that every time her brother is hungry or needs to use the restroom he'll still have to utilize the main quarters.
Please do not put in storage... because you never look at it again or go and get anything....I know I paid a year and never went to the unit again, so finally it all went to good will.
You better plug the extension cord hole with steel wool and spray foam, mice won’t chew on steel wool, also the solar like cord hole with caulk or there will be bees and all manner of creepy crawling insects.

Yes but foam spray or sumthg ov the hole and some type of wire mice don't like that it real nice what you have done he will appreciate and love it
If your stuff has never been used in a year get rid of it. Trust me paying for storage unit is just a money waster.
What a waste of money
😢😢😢😢😢😢
It’s true. I’m up to over $100 per month & besides Xmas stuff I’m not sure what’s in there
Not when inflation makes things 4x a much to repurchase.

Your brother is very fortunate to have you. Thank you for preparing this room for him.
Insulation and a small wood stove would make it much cozier. Nice job so far.
I said the exact same thing.
Yes me too
Not if it’s summer
@@onestarabove7027 In the summer you take the stove out and put a fan there.
It turned out really nice, it's larger than it looks from the outside. Considering it's 15 years old, it's in really good condition. Nicely done!
Spray foam the holes for the ext cord and lamp cord. Down the road, insulate, dry wall, proper electrical and maybe a lean-to bathroom/toilet/shower/sink setup.
I have a 100 year old shed on my property. I have wanted to transform it into a three season porch. You have inspired me!
Looks nice. One idea for electrical is to run a sub panel 30 amp that will power some outlets lights / fan’s and a window unit. I love that shed I’m sure he’ll enjoy it.
I love it! ♥️ I see so many sheds turned into tiny homes. The economy has forced people to be creative. And this works great for your brother.....
Only what was needed and no more! Simple and smart! That his mom thought to stockpile cloths for him is awsome!
That’s really a nice BIG SHED that looks great inside. Love your energy & you helping your family😊😊😊. You did a great job for sure👏👏👏👏

He will only be here for the summer but after that it’ll go right back to being a shed
Big undertaking which resulted in a really neat transformation. If I was a guest, that to me would be a great accommodation.
Many kudos to you.
Turned out just fine that´s awesome! I built a tiny cabin about that size on my property here in rural Mexico, funny just yesterday I did the same for a while used it as a storage but finally it´s ready to rent as an Airbnb. I´m sure your brother will be very comfy.
Lovely and cosy. Have you ever considered insulating the walls inside for winter use as well.
My brother will only be here for the summer and we were trying to get this done fast for when he got home so that’s why we didn’t insulate it!
@@margaretskiff Still lovely and cosy though. Enjoy the family gathering with your brother ❤
I love real insignificant transformations. Simply beautiful..

It turned out beautifully he will love what you and ur mom did i love it.
This is going to work great for the summer. Nice job!!
That's a great job. I would happily have that as a bedroom. Very nice and cozy
I would add a mini fridge and a porta potty if he has to go badly, and doesn't want to wake anyone up in the house..
That is an awesome bedroom you created for your brother! Love it!
I like to see this type of transformations, it gets me inspired.
It’s not insulated, so it’s not suitable for cold weather, I assume. The shed turned out to be a really cozy bedroom tho
And nice will still get in
Absolutely great! He will love.
That came out really nice very clean looking

This is so nice I hope he appreciates the work

Also how big is the shed?
She is in Virginia, it's hot there 😊
I'm not, I'm in Maine
In the video I did say we would be sealing everything up. My brother will only be here for the summer so he won't need heat.

It is really nice. How do you keep the mice out now that it is fixed up with a bed etc…. I like the electric .
What a great job done in one week!!
This was cool and such a good idea to give him his own space
Great job. Think I'd want to put another coat of white paint on the outside of the door. Add a rug?

@@TheREALOC1972 Nice!
So is the shed insulated? Look like he can freeze out there
sooo he has a solar powered light. But at night, when you need the light, that doesnt work right? or am i mssing something?
Gloves! (Gardening or playtex type)
Just sering this. Curious what yall will be doing with your storage stuff!!??
I wishto know a little more about how you put the window in for him. And where did you get the solar panel idea for his light
Yeah I like the solar panel/light too. Wondering how long it lasts before needing more sun?!
I'm a probably get 3 of the portable solar generators that sell for about $600 and open up like a suitcase so that I always had.
Stand By in the event that there wasn't Sun but I like about that solar panel that I'm referring to is. It is a pass through meaning it will accept energy from the sun while you are using it.
"Pivot! Pivot!" 😅
He's an outside brother but they don't chain him up to the tree, he's allowed to Rome freely
Lucky brother/son or friend what a nice room for him.
Very nice and cozy.
Nice Shed Turn out bedroom just place calling into holes where uour cords are coming through for lights and electric because you want to keep out Critters permanently with some form of sealant or Rubber seals NICE UNIT but where is his shower and compos Unit
Cute little shed! I need one like that. ❤
The can also spray foam the walls and use the left over for the floor spray foam is amazing and also whool if she can find someone that has sheep or alpha there whool is the best thing for insulation ever
Nice job ! I was going to do my shed the same way for my oldest son

As OP frequently points out. It was for brother to stay in FOR 1 SUMMER !
90 days or less.
Once.
One time.
Then it's a shed again.

@4:10 .-- Pivot... Pivot... PIVOT!!! 😂
those two ladies did a great job.
Judging from that staying over there by the plug-in, you got a leaky roof might wanna get that fixed😊
You ladies did good, sweet!
I think mom is the most cool person here as per description 😊😊 cheers mom!
Nicely done!
Great job and loved the video 😘👍🏻💕💕
Looks great !!
Great job! 👍👏👏
What a lovely shed makeover. Your Oregon Viewer.
Hopefully by winter he finds another place. Without some insulation it will be like sleeping outside. Otherwise real good job. He should really like it.
Fabulous! So charming!
Great job comfortable accommodation.
7:10 - ahhh, a doorway for the 🐭🐁🫣
Shouldn't it lock/latch from the inside?
It does
Great project👍😀😀😀😀
What about temperature control? And I would think the mice would come back considering its not very sealed.
Wow! An another icebox to lay in during the cold nights. No insulation, no electric, no restroom, just wow.
Great video love it 💚🐍
What do you do for ac or heating
Nice I hope it doesn’t get cold where you live. That place isn’t insulated.
Oh Common Ground fair poster… are you in Maine? I live in Maine
it looks great!
Yes!
WHAT W Maine.
Wow that's a lot of things. It's my first time to watch your video 😊😊
What size is this shed?
What are the shed dimensions
PIVOT! PIVOT! PIVOT! 😂😂
That a temporary hanging out place in the spring. . No insulation. No running water. Not electricity. .
Wish i had one to live in and pay rent only as am retired and only social security to live on, would be nice
Pivot, pivot, pivot 😆
Lmbo!!!! I thought I was the only one who heard Ross yelling Pivot!!!!! 😂😂😂😂
It's adorable❤😊
Did y'all get rid of the spider's?
That's a nice little bedroom
Love it❤🎉
Why didn't you insulate and put up sheetrock?
Since mice wee and poo through everuthing, I really don't think it's safe to drink from the coffee machine that was in there. It's not worth the bacteria or diseases carried.
Great job though. I'm sure he loved it! ❤

Love this. Where did he fit before? Lol
You forgot to insulate. Bud's gonna be cold af
A "steel Door" instead of the wooden shed door would keep pests out so the brother wont wake up to a mouse or snake licking his feet.
This is nice, but I would have let the trims to be white. A house needs different color to the walls and trims, most of the cases.
Insulation?! 😮🥶
Please do not put in storage... because you never look at it again or go and get anything....I know I paid a year and never went to the unit again, so finally it all went to good will.
We use a lot of the stuff that was put into storage we just use it seasonally like our winter clothes, air conditioners, and camping gear ✌️
Pivot! Pivot!!!
Very cool
Nice job
