I put my heart and soul into this project and I'm soooo proud to share it with you. I appreciate your time in watching. Please follow along as I find cool eclectic pieces, show you how I transform them and use them in my bus and home !!! "THRIFT FINDS & DESIGNS" Camping, tailgating and overnight stays for distant 12 hour hospital shifts and more...I'm new to this and I would love to have some company...Come along !
I bought this little bus in 2020. My twins were heading off to college and I was quarantined from my family (ICU Nurse). Timing was perfect. This is a longtime dream of mine. My conversion took approx. 8 weeks, and I did every inch myself...It's a simple conversion but exactly what I wanted and all I need... I spend a lot of time in my bus as mentioned above. It's my space and much needed... Thank you for allowing me to share with you!

THIS is inspiring! I get so weary and unmotivated by the "pro" builds. This is a bit more my style and a lot more my skill level! Very motivational. 💝
Ty !!! It was within my skill set !! Easy !!!
I agree! Especially with my budget! LOL
Yes! So I'm not alone. I am a single mother of two so definitely would add a bunk easily and Mount it as well. So inspiring.
Been getting so overwhelmed looking at peoples 20k builds this is super simple but also super functional, thank you for sharing this gave me an inspiration boost (:
I'm sooo glad it did !!! It can be done on a small budget !!!! And thrift finds !!!! Ty sooo much !!!❤️🩷🧡
Yes!!! Came to say the same thing, I got so discouraged watching all the 20k and up builds that’s definitely out of my price range but this was a perfect reminder what can be done and done well 😊 👏🏽
Totally agree....most don't have that money....or skill
Same.
Lady, you are remarkable. I am pushing 77 and still would like c to do what you did and travel. Hope you're bus doesn't give you toomany mechanical problems. Be safe
We have a habitat for humanity restore here and I’m planning on building mine completely from donated, cheap and free stuff. Lol repurposed and one man’s trash is another man’s treasure
Lol....
Most of mine was from restore Habitat for Humanity. I have several around me
Love this conversation . Definitely gave me so many ideas and took a lot of stress off trying to have it super built out like some of the other videos I’ve watched.
I love how homey your bus looks like. It's beautiful, comfortable and well conceived. The only thing I would add is a shower set up, which can be as simple as a hoolahoop and a shower curtain suspended by chain and magnets and a blow up kiddy pool. Just make sure you stop by a Lowes or home depot to get a pump sprayer, and voila, you have a shower. When not in use it can all slide under your bed.
What do you mean don't judge you? I wish they would try. People should be asking for your advice. That is an awesome build. Great job. I'm coming out soon, and I would love your input, advice, and expertise. ❤💯🙏👍👏.
This is my favourite bus conversion, and I've been looking at conversions for years! So many brilliant ideas and beautiful execution. Well done! I will likely borrow a lot of your ideas for my own build. Thanks for sharing.
Ty soooooo much my friend! Sooo sweet of you !!!❤️🩷🧡
I love this build. It's literally my style and vibe as a fellow Capricorn I approve 💯💅🤗😍♥️💛💚🖤
Yay! Thank you!
Possibly my favourite bus conversion and I've enjoyed watching these for years.
This can be the SHE SHED for those of us without back yards
I almost didn't 👍 this, but when I saw the commode I was impressed. An RV should have a bathroom whether scattered or in one place. Proud of ya!
Geeee...thx!
Thank you for showing us your home
It's a brilliant build. It wants for nothing, it's lovely. We'll done.
Stay safe on your journey.
Thank you very much!
I absolutely love this build! ! You are an inspiration!! I wish I had the guts to just travel around like this 🖤💜.
Yours is the best one I’ve ever seen. So cozy and comfortable looking
Love your easy simple set up getting ready to start on my shuttle bus
Thank you for making this tutorial it gave me so much hope!
I love it I believe in simplicity . Too many people spend thousands of dollars on spending for wooden cabinets and custom-made stuff I am not into that I want to do it as quick as possible and as simple as possible
Beautiful Simply Beautiful! ❤❤❤
Thank you! 😊
Awesome. I love that you used furniture pieces, looks so much more like a home! you did a fabulous job!
I already posted a comment but this is not just great it is amazing!
Ty soooo much !!!!
I love that you made it so personal to you and that you love it. That's awesome.
Stunning! My absolute favorite bus conversion ever. Enjoy 🎉
Many thanks!
Melissa, you have a great build/design🚌that makes your peace☮of mind🧠splendor to enjoy. In the go'n into & cum'n out from🕯. What the journey in living is all about. always, Tommy🤠
Thanks so much! 😊
Thank you so much for making this video. This is the only one I have seen that has really answered all my questions and love 💯
I really appreciate the minimal conversion! My family is thinking of converting a bus to use as a temporary home while we build our farm house, but most of the videos we’ve seen have involved fully gutting. So much character for very little “construction”! Will be stealing some of your ideas 😁
13:54 your so inspiring and you made it so simple for those that don't have all of those hard were tools.
Ty so much...it's true u don't need to be a professional builder to convert a bus !!!!
Your recreation and painting skills are phenomenal. Talent beyond great job
Ty soooo much !!!!❤️🩷🧡
I absolutely adore everything you've done with this bus! It's totally my aesthetic, great job on creating such a beautiful space!!
Thank you so much!

Love your bus, great living space!
Hi Melissa, I have to say thank you so much. Im about to find a way to buy a shuttle bus to transform in tiny home for me and my 2 kids to live in it as the rent increse of 46% is impossible to pay and all those videos of people doing it just discouraged me. They do massive build with thousand dollar tools I dont have along with the skills. You saved my day by showing me it doesnt need to all be rebuild to be nice. Thanks.
Ty sooo much! I'm so happy that my build shows people it can be done simply and beautifully without spending a ton of money that most of us don't have!!!!
Stunning !
Thank you!
I love it. Good job on the design.
Just found you I love it great job👍👍
I am in love with what you have done with your bus! I wish I could do something like that, and be able to get away. I just love it!
OMg you are so talented
Astonishing! Just gorgeous! ❤❤❤
Ty !!!!!!!!
Thank you. I am doing the same bus as of today. Way too late to help but the rubber eraser attachment from any auto store stripped 15 year old stickers pretty fast and easy.
Awesome!!! Love da Bus Creation.
Thank you very much!
Fabulous ❤ shows that anyone who needs and wants can do. You gave me ideas and I'm thanking you. 🤗🤗🥰
Great first video and I agree with another comment your funny lol your personality shines.
I absolutely love your bus it's beautiful. I very recently lost my husband unexpectedly. We were planning on getting a motorhome or bus to travel. In fact we looked at a used motorhome the day he passed. Unfortunately our plans came to a end but I still plan on traveling. I will be taking my husband with me in my heart and memories. My husband wanted to get a motorhome with everything already done but I wanted a bus to build as we liked.
So I'm looking at a 4 window bus a little smaller then yours. I don't need anything big and I don't want to do a big build out. Watching your video seeing what all you have done without a big build has given me so many wonderful ideas. The short bus I'm looking at comes with the seats removed and it's partly converted but not my style. It's kind of a throw together mix match of old not so nice stuff but it does have a small 3 burning stove and AC that I will keep and that about it. I can't wait to get the bus and start working on it. I think it will help to have something to do and keep my mind busy on something other then my grief. At least that's what I'm hoping for. My bus will be my therapy...
Anyways I love your bus and you have an great eye for Interior decorating such a beautiful bus...
Awwwe...well ty !!!
I m so very sorry to hear the loss if ur husband. Please feel free to reach out anytime...i wish u lived close !!!!!!!! 🧡🩷❤️ I would love to see ur conversion!!!
Ohhhh ty !!! I wish u soooo much peace and happy adventures ahead !!!!
Just started my build….. your bus is beautiful and an inspiration❤
You did a fantastic job 😊
Thank you! Cheers!
Waaaaay cute!
Thank you
I like a more minimalistic approach and you did a great job here. I plan on building out a startrans shuttle bus this year and you gave me ideas. Also,Ravens are my animal!!
I have wanted to get a bus and this has taught me more then the expensive builds I've been seeing. I absolutely love it 😊
Love it. You are talented. Exquisite taste!
Thank you so much!
Beeeauuutiful💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿
Me encantó. Una intención muy organizada, tranquila, simple, linda, minimalista... y la mujer está re buena, creo. Ñam. Ya casi no hay rubias naturales y todo eso. Benditas yankees. :')
Really nice just beautiful good job❤😊

I am subscribing and looking forward to other videos!
Thank you so much! 😍😍😍😍😍
I simply love your bus! So creative and beautiful.
Thank you so much!
This is lovely, just my style. I'm looking for my own bus to convett also. Can't wait!
Your bus is wonderful.
Ty !!!!💓❤️💜🩵💙💚
I think your bus is delightful! Perhaps quixotic, but it strikes me as perfect! Highly imaginative and very bohemiam. It is a warm, comfortable space to kick off you shoes and curl up to read with a cup of coffee or glass of tea. I love your kitchen; for such fanciful space, it is quite efficient.
I do have suggestions, like a Jackery power bank, just in case. My always suggestion is duct or gorilla tape, zip ties, rope, construction grade garbage bags, A shovel (are those people in the next camp bothering you?) 😄😂😄😂, scissors, sewing kit, and work gloves. You never know what emergency might crop up.
For the bus itself, might I recommend window screens to keep the bugs out? Maybe a couple of USB fans for ventilation, and my favorite: A canopy for the side of the bus. I've seen some really nice ones. One of my artist friends who did art fairs took a regular canopy tent and made a ceiling and drapes to give her tent an exotic, unique look. It was lovely! Kind of looked like it was part of a Romany camp.
I was wondering, how do you lock your bus? It is so beautiful, surely there are nefarious people looking to break in. I'd also want some kind of security system for it, as it is a work of art.
I love the openness of your bus; the way you've furnished it like a living room. The toilet is pretty brilliant too. I've used an emergency toilet a number of times (5 gallon bucket, garbage bags, adult diaper inside) and have been grateful for it. When you gotta go, you gotta go! I would consider a folding screen to put up for privacy when in use. But that's me. Your bus is a beautiful, quirky creation and it delights me! Love the Avon lady bag...I have one just like it.
Wow Jane...ty for all the wonderful suggestions ...many of them r in the works. I work full time and also renovating my home... I so appreciate your sincere outlook and tips !!!!❤️🩷🧡
@@Melissafrick2 oh, Melissa, when it comes to advice, I'm full of it! I bet your house turns out as lovely as your bus!
