DIY Renovated RV for Family of 7 - Full Time Tiny Living

[@jewelssylva3738]

Just a note about the spices sharing the oven wall. I may be wrong, but I think that the direct heat next to the spices may damage or age the spices. Their taste & nutritional value may be compromised. I would check how warm the spice pantry gets when the oven is in use.

[@TheFlippinTilbys]

That's a good point! It doesn't get very hot and we go through our spices very quickly!

[@maryfolks9368]

I loved this and I loved how she presented her home. Our RV is similar to theirs. We just have a 7yr old and I've been wondering if we should continue to do the RV life. Her organization really inspired me, thanks so much for this video, you have no idea how much I needed to see this one right now 🤗

[@TheFlippinTilbys]

Oh, wow! I really appreciate that and am glad you found value in us sharing! I'd be more than happy to answer any questions!

[@noemisolano4748]

Beautiful RV!! Loved your storage solutions for a small space. In my opinion, RV or tiny living is the way to go now since apartment rents are so expensive. You are right, us parents spend so much time at work and by the time we get home, parents are exhausted and have to get ready for the next day. Also RV living it's great because you are traveling and spending time with your children.

[@skohaya]

Congrats. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home. What a blessing to know and raise your children.

[@TheFlippinTilbys]

Thank you ! That's 100% why we chose to do this lifestyle!

[@aprilshorty4094]

Your home is beautiful and with everything that's going on in the world today it's so important to be close with your family and make those one of a kind memories ❤💙

[@TheFlippinTilbys]

Thank you so much! That was the goal! We realized how little time we had with our children and really wanted to make the most of it!

[@angelagonzales1792]

I sure enjoyed your video this his been a dream of ours for many years, I didn’t know you could buy trailers that needed renovations which probably what would benefit us since money is tight. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

[@TheFlippinTilbys]

I'm glad you found value in the tour! Our budget was super tight when we started doing this and got the vandalized rv for such a great price, it just took a lot of patience looking for one!

[@brandimatrosmalloy3341]

I enjoyed this video, beautiful rv. Good on you and your husband for both homeschooling and putting your family first.

I am working on a southwest theme "pissoir" basically an outdoor urinal with cover for the guys saving trips to the house from gardening area. You might do a sawdust bucket, ours is going to be a large PVC pipe standing height! You can add a drain hose with release for draining it. Just ideas for brainstorming... loved the tour!

[@TheFlippinTilbys]

Thank you! We really appreciate that!

[@vonheise]

Great setup! They do make toilet seats for 5 gallon buckets and small compostng toilets which could be set behind a curtain outside or inside when weather is bad. Our family camps together and most use tents, so we carry the 5 gallon bucket setup for the girls, the boys use trees or the lake if there is one.

[@denisephillips9269]

Please pass on using the lake.

[@TheFlippinTilbys]

Good idea! Most RV parks we are at have bathrooms, and so far that's been enough- but I'll keep that in mind!

[@rae1957tn]

There’s a toilet tent on Amazon that’s not very pricey and the bucket with seat was around $30.

[@Luvpig]

[@TheFlippinTilbys]

That was the goal! Kids don't keep!

[@brentfrench752]

Wow, there seems to be a lot of negativity in the comments. Most about the speed at which Renee talks, while others focused on what dad said about being closer to his youngest. It’s clear he meant he had a stronger bond with his youngest as he’s been involved more with the up ringing of his youngest than the others. That certainly doesn’t mean he loves one more than the other. I tend to favor my youngest, but I love each of my kids the same, and that’s pretty normal with parents! I also tend to speak faster when I’m nervous, and my voice gets shaky. Some people do great in front of cameras, others get nervous. Anyway, Renee, I thought you spoke fine, and I didn’t think it was really that fast, but whatever. You guys have made yourself a beautiful home, and it’s apparent you are very happy, and love your lifestyle. The only downside I see about your trailer is the limited outside storage, but somehow you guys make it work! How do you renovate other trailers? Do you just park it next to yours in a campground or while boondocking? Or, do you keep them at a friends or family home, or some land you own? I’d love to live your lifestyle, but my wife issues sold on the idea. However, she said she would be willing to live in one for a few weeks at a time, so I’m hoping she’ll love it so much that she agrees to eventually go full time.

[@TheFlippinTilbys]

Thank you so much for taking the time to say this! I have always talked fast and this is honestly my slow pace of talking😅. You are exactly right about Shaun and our youngest, he was able to develop a stronger bond and wishes he had been able to do that with the others. We love our lifestyle and do it for us, we are pretty used to people not agreeing with it! I hope you are able to do at least short stints of RVing, it really is such a great way to explore and experience the world!

[@TheFlippinTilbys]

As for the renovations, we have a few very kind family members who let us renovate on their properties. We will be starting a motorhome renovation next week in Sacramento.

[@sharonrice8255]

Kinda shitty he spoke of a favorite kid. He did say “favorite” but that’s how it came out

[@brentfrench752]

It was obvious he meant he had a stronger bond with his youngest, because he was not as involved with the upbringing of the others as he has been with the youngest. It does mean he doesn’t love the others just as much. I would venture to say that although parents love every child the same, there’s they might feel a stronger bond or closeness to. I have 5 kids, and I feel a bit closer to my youngest, but I love them all the same.

[@TheFlippinTilbys]

He was able to be much more present in his early years, creating a stronger bond that he wishes he'd been able to do with all of them.

[@butterflybunny1990]

I think if I had that many kids, I would look for a way to connect a smaller RV to the back to give the kids more space…. At least when the kids get older. But, obviously it works for them…

only thing i would change, those drop closets on either side of the bed.
