Beloved and I have long talked about scoring an empty lot on our little fishing island. We’re not allowed to build on most of the empty lots in the area, but you can install movable structures that don’t have a permanent plumbing or electrical hookup. I was thinking about a rolling gypsy caravan-style structure, but those need to be shipped in, and they’re kind of expensive. Enter Bunkies. The Canadian company that designs them describes a Bunkie as “a modular small cabin kit that can be easily built in a weekend without special tools (or a second mortgage).” The adorable structures have been featured on HGTV and many Canadian DIY house and home shows as well.

“So you never got over your obsession with Lincoln Logs… Bunkie Life can help you.”

Bunkie Life has a number of different designs (including an outhouse model), and the tour videos are adorably hosted by Owner David Fraser, who is usually too cold to speak clearly. There are plenty of installation how-to videos, information about potential add-ons, and tons of other great content on their channel. They even periodically do a free giveaway contest!

You can explore Bunkies on the Bunkie Life website and on Instagram and YouTube.
