Usually when we think of crafts, we think of small items.  Things can either be held in our hands, worked on our laps, or at least on the table in front of us.  Think bigger.  A lot bigger.  I had never considered this as a craft before but apparently, it is considered a craft.  Have you ever considered building a log cabin?

I love the idea of a log cabin, not just for a vacation spot, but for a primary home.  Today plans can be acquired that bring log cabins to a whole new level.  There are magazines and books published on a regular basis that come complete with floor plans.  Some of these homes are stunning.

But wouldn’t it be nice to have a little log cabin for your family to vacation in?  Or as an office?  How about for a retreat away from the busyness of society?  It can be done and it isn’t all that hard.  I don’t know that I would take this craft project on by myself, but with someone who could do some of the more complex things such as wiring and plumbing, I can’t think of a good reason why not to do it.

Take a look at this site.  It explains the process and from there you can do more research to build just the cabin that is your “home sweet home.”
