Welcome to Lemonhead Press. Our family is on a mission to chart our own course by living on our own terms. We’re tired of chasing the TV version of the American dream. We realized that if we wanted to have true happiness we needed to start living in the moment. We feel that self-sufficiency, independence, and liberty start at home and with our family. Taking control of our lives was number one on our list to accomplish this goal. So we decided to transform our lives so we could achieve our vision of true happiness. We’ve started documenting our life’s transformations not only for ourselves, but in hopes that it would help others.
Homeschooling
Homeschooling is a cornerstone of our new life. Our children’s education is the most important things to us. With our experience in the public school system and the cost of private schools it all just seems to be unattainable. We also knew that drilling for the next test was not the way we wanted our children to be educated. We want our kids to learn in a more relaxed environment. Homeschooling can be very stressful and overwhelming sometimes but we feel it will be well worth it in the end.
School Bus Conversion
We are converting a school bus into a tiny house. We’ll be documenting each step of the process with videos and blog posts. Documenting each step of the process is important to us because when we were thinking about taking on this project we found it extremely difficult to find any information on this subject. We know that this is a huge endeavor but we feel that this will be a key component in reaching the personal freedom we are trying to achieve.
Shop
Everything in our shop is designed and handmade by Katie. Katie has always been a very artistic and creative person. She has always spent a significant amount of time either creating or experimenting with different methods of expressing that creative gene she has. We hope that you get as much joy from our products as Katie gets from the process of creating them.
Restoring Classics
Luis has been restoring classic cars and trucks for just over two decades and has grown up in the automobile industry. He was taught by his father from a very early age the skills required to rebuild cars and trucks to the level expected from top notch customers. Here is some of the work he has done in the past.
The Podcast
On our podcast we discuss a wide variety of topics like; How are we building our tiny house? How we deal with the stresses of homeschooling? How we are changing our lives to better suit our family’s needs? How we try to eat healthier while trying to stay under budget, and just about any other topic around improving our lives.
