I thought my daughter Zee was ridiculous when she bought the shipping container.
- It was unsightly and weird, in addition to I could not figure out what Zee was going to do with it.
Zee put it on the property that bordered ours, in addition to asking what her mother and I thought of her new home. I stood there in addition to stared at it, while thinking Zee was going crazy. Zee told me that in a few months the home would be beautiful in addition to you would never tell it was once an old shipping container. Over the next month, my friend and I heard bandsaws going in addition to metal cracking as the workers converted the old shipping bin into a house. There were cutouts for the doors in addition to windows, but I was pondering what they would do that would make the inside look like a home. Right before Christmas, Zee’s shipping bin loft was completed in addition to I was given a tour. There was a full powder room, a utility family room with a small dining table, in addition to a small living room. Spare beds were hidden inside the sofa in addition to chair, in addition to all of her small appliances were tucked away in little cupboards in addition to hidden storage spaces. The kitchen was small, but there were several drawers under the bed, in addition to closet space between the wall in addition to the little powder room. She had room for a queen-sized bed. I thought the shipping bin loft was going to be tiny, but it is perfect for one in addition to maybe two people. I was so pleased with the look of Zee’s shipping bin home. I told my partner if her mother and I ever decided to downgrade, I was going to look into buying an old shipping container, then converting it into a small shipping bin home.
