DIY
Having people over at your house is great, but what happens when you get into the wee hours and they can't (or won't) go home? You've got to put them up for the night, don't you? If you're not fortunate enough to have a spare room, you're going to have to get some extra blankets, clear up the sofa, or generally make a makeshift bedroom in your house for your guest.
But what if there was another solution? What if you could erect a guest bedroom at your will, for anyone that happened to stay over? What if you're in the doghouse with your significant other, and you want to sleep somewhere that isn't a literal dog house? Well, Amazon have got your back, and the best part is that you can do it all yourself.

Check out this DIY guest house on Amazon, folks. But the best part of this is that it doesn't even have to be a guest house; it can be an office or a studio, a pool house, a games room, a place to grow your plants. The Allwood Solvalla can be anything you want it to be.
Let's check out some of the dimensions, so you can figure out where exactly it's going to go in your house. The inside floor area is about 172 square feet (86 square feet of that is covered). You can order all the parts (as well as instructions) on Amazon, and with the help of another adult, you can put the entire thing together in a little over eight hours, Allwood estimates.

If you want air conditioning, electricity or running water things might take a little longer (you'll be on your own for that part, DIY enthusiast!), but otherwise, enjoy your little guest house. All you have to do is pony up the nominal fee of... $7,250? Oh. Uh, excuse me. I've... I've got to go move some funds around.
