8. A Cozy Peppermint Bedroom Loft
Upstairs, under the steep roof, is where the cabin gets its heart. My loft bedroom is small — a bed with red and white striped bedding, a chest at the foot, and a window that looks out over the snowy pines. I lined the sloped walls with bookshelves and hung a lantern from the beam, and at night the whole room glows soft and warm. The trick is the ceiling: build the roof steep enough that the loft becomes a triangle, and suddenly the tiniest room feels like the best room in the house.
