Single mom lives with daughter in shipping container converted to beautiful home

If you are a thrifty individual, or would like to be in order to stretch that dollar further, then you will appreciate this story. Lulu is a mom from Argentina. She has a gift at taking what she has, and creating the absolute best out of it by transforming it creatively into something of use. She did exactly that with a standard shipping container.

She essentially turned a shipping container into a mobile home, which she now lives in with her daughter. No handouts for Lulu, as she simply takes what is there and as unconventional as it may seem, makes use out of it. In turn she can use the funds which she has saved for education purposes. Everything her and her child need is there. Beds, bathrooms, and a basic kitchen. The cost? Including the trailer, it was a total of $4,000!
