Hey guys, in this video I'm building a tiny house using mini bricks, scrap wood and other mini materials. This mini house has working lights and a ceiling fan for those hot summer days. The garage at the beginning of the video was built in a previous video:    • DIY Mini Garage with Mini Bricks - Br...

Mini Materials used:
Mini Bricks set: amzn.to/3DLt99V
Mini Hinges: amzn.to/3d4hLI3
LED Lights: amzn.to/3mkyHjv
Sonic Tooth Brush: amzn.to/3SIQRvt
Hot Glue Gun: amzn.to/43dLMzl

- For the base I used 1/4 inch plywood and began to lay the bricks.
- The mini pallet, windows and the door were made using scrap wood I had laying around.
- After the brickwork was complete I cleaned up the extra mortar and washed the surface with a sonic toothbrush which cleans 5 times better than an ordinary toothbrush.
- I then used black tile grout to fill in the seams of the brickwork, this adds a nice contrast and character to the building.
- I then laid down the flooring in the living room, kitchen and office / library.
- I used tiny hinges to mount the door to the door post, I used a punch to drive the nails in the rest of the way since I didn't have a mini hammer handy. For the door handle I used a large staple.
- I framed the entire house using scrap wood I had laying around.
- Next, I ran all the electrical wiring and for the LED lighting and the ceiling fan upstairs.
- I installed siding and the trim pieces which were painted beforehand.
- Lastly, I laid down the roofing material and wired up the junction box.
