fridge is well insulated and just throw a heat bulb in there then you have a room for colo(freezer) and a room for fruiting(fridge) oh yeah attic mini fridge will fit there or cooler something like that will do you could build it out of some coreboard shit that blue or pink board you see on houses pre-siding

Got a big cooler?

All you need then is a pickle jar with an aquarium heater in it, and you're set... Heat isn't as much as a
problem in your situation as is insulation, and you can't beat a cooler for a small, super
insulated space

Agreed, a cooler makes a great FC. If growing in the cold don't forget to bolster the insulation in the lid of the cooler. I've found that many have less than adequate insulation in the lid because they are designed to keep things cool not warm. I've in the past had to drill holes in the top and spray in "Great Stuff" foam as well as laying foam batting on top so as to not loose too much heat.

A rubbermaid tub and a hydrofarm seedling heat mat or water bed heater would work as well. The adjustable thermostats make it easy to dial in. Have fun, be safe.
