I Tried FLIPPING Furniture Living in a VAN

You are the realist, glad u are back.

[@lilyamongbrambles4458]

Great video! You are an inspiration ❤

[@QuestOutWest]

Thank you! 💕💕💕🤗

[@paulawagner6058]

I'm 100% in with the pie! I like it that you are so resourceful.

[@jeanpayne2823]

Glad to see you back.

[@southernizerwatching]

Where are you at!? Hope all is well. Miss your vids. ❤ Girl, you keep going!

Answers coming very soon

Lol! Your the right mix of brilliant and crazy. Some tips that will save you time and $$: Get some gel paint stripper and a plastic spatula and your sanding time will be greatly reduced. You can make your own chaulk paint with plaster of Paris and and latex paint and get free paint from the recycle place or a Habitat for Humanity Restore. You can use dollar store craft paint to tint latex.

[@QuestOutWest]

Thank you 💕

[@djjd783]

Btw. Look for mid century modern pieces. They are classic and refurb nicely and pretty easy to sell. So glad your back. Nice to see you catch a break in the car repairs. Wish you lots of good luck and blessings.

[@helene1779]

Hello Natasha, good to see you and the babies back! The furniture you painted looked great! Looking forward to see what you’re up to! Safe travels.❤️🙏🏼👍🏼👍🏼✌🏼❤️🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛🐈❤️

[@QuestOutWest]

💕💕💕💕 thank you

[@marymahar8446]

Home Depot also sells 'Oops paint' cheaply. Paint colors that were mistakes. Good luck ☘️

[@shawnmoio7224]

I love that you are incredibly real, extremely intelligent, and send powerful content to all the women out there. Keep up your excellent work.

[@Mizz.Person]

I usually use rollers on furniture and doors etc. I don't use a brush except for some details, crevices or edges. 😀

[@KaltrinaDemiri]

Why don't you work at a hotel as a housekeeper or a camp host or something that offers room and board?

[@jollyroad18750]

Please send us a clip letting us know your okay ! I think the tables looked great

[@ta_arkie]

Hope you are doing well, miss your updates!

Great to see you ,i started to get worried something had happened😇 have a good week 🙏

[@QuestOutWest]

Ty. You are in my thoughts too friend. My book is finally almost ready. Im looking forward to sending you guys packages. 💕

[@Alex-ergo]

@@QuestOutWest looking forward to read it 🥰 to bad the furniture flip did not turn out this time, it was a really great idea. Just to bad the economy is so bad at the moment. Say hello to the cats from me 😇

[@Bebe-og3bc]

Hey, Just wanted to tell you that I used to paint my stuff with paint I would get for dirt cheap at any paint store that take back paint have gallons of all kinds of beautiful colors that people have returned . Greetings from Oregon!

[@leemears1195]

So glad to see you. I’ve thought of you often. Prayed for you often. Plz don’t ghost us. Many of us care and want to hear from you. God bless. 🌹

[@QuestOutWest]

Will be posting soon ro explain everything. 💕

[@sarahpierson6937]

Glad you're back. Keep persevering! 😺😺😺

[@hoosiergirl1]

So glad to see you back Natasha! I have been thinking of you. The retreat looks amazing!

[@QuestOutWest]

Thank you! 💕💕💕

[@Lori.ReturnToFreedom]

Thank you Natasha. I got a van a couple months ago and am busy working through my internal blocks to hitting the road. One thing I’m learning is not to let the difficulties become road blocks. Must keep going!! ❤ thank you for the reminder. Happy to see u back also!!

[@QuestOutWest]

👍💯💕

[@navigatingthedestination]

Good attempt at flipping furniture. The biggest challenge today is the cost of living has gotten unaffordable. I used to flip items from Facebook marketplace a number of years ago untill the market got flooded and the items I use to buy, increased so much it wasn't profitable anymore unless you are doing high end items.

[@paulawagner6058]

The bedstand looks amazing.

[@QuestOutWest]

Thanks!

[@rainbow_warrioress]

I love your cliffhangers. You're a very talented editor. Those pieces turned out beautiful.

[@QuestOutWest]

Thank you ☺️

[@lisadelashmit267]

Hope you’re doing OK!

[@shellywelsh2316]

Yay! Great to see a video from you! I really like the work you did.

[@QuestOutWest]

Thanks Shelly! 💕💕💕💕

[@LizzyT-o1f]

To be honest. You chose the wrong colours. That beautiful table would have looked so good if you left the top you sanded as it was and done the rest in black with nice light gold handles and then just varnished . Maybe do that next time because it's easier and people are starting to like the natural and black together xx

[@QuestOutWest]

Thanks 👍

[@airecraig4950]

You did so good on those tables. Such a pretty job 💯💯 new to your channel, but im routing for you girl!! 💕 Also eww to that weird park guy lol he needs a hobby lol hang in there girlie 😊

[@Albusolar]

Hi Natasha, nice to see you back. Hope you and the cats have been well. You've taken on quite a task so I wish you the best of success. Sending love and hugs 💕🫂💕

[@geeg7202]

Oh my gosh I’m so glad. Happy happy to hear back from you again glad you’re posting please do so again.

[@daveher9554]

Natasha, this has been one of your best videos for me.

[@QuestOutWest]

Thank you ☺️

[@lizburrowschapin2871]

Miss you.

I’m praying 🙏🏻 for you that things get better 😊 for you & the cats. I wish you the best & love 💕

Hi Natasha, where did you go?

[@QuestOutWest]

Posting this week 💕

[@orientexpressVanlife]

Hi there, thanks for the video. So glad to see you again. I’m sorry that your furnitures didn’t sell. It is getting harder and harder to make money these days. Your never give up attitude is very much appreciated it. Take care 😊

[@XCX237]

Good to see you back. It's good to see you and cats are ok. You've been through a lot. Keep your head up. It's always darkest just before dawn. Be safe 💪💪💪👍

[@LSChestersMom]

You did a beautiful job! I sure would have purchased those.... I have friends who flip and they had success with selling them yard sale style in a good location outdoors. Maybe that would work... You are awesome!

[@russcoight1586]

But it's like Natasha said, its hard and slow work and even a lot harder now due to this tough crisis we're at.

[@Heavyhearted44]

I love your video

[@Mizz.Person]

I appreciate your honesty. I can't do much, but like and comment. Sending hugs and good vibes! Edit. P.s. I'm sad about the laundry mat. That looked like an interesting job! Oh well! Another adventure is around the corner.

[@Luvpig]

At least you tried!❤

[@lucsmith2092]

Yay, a new instalment 😊

[@annapasley592]

Happy to see you again 😊

[@travellingtascha]

Hey Natasha. How are you doing right now? Hope you will include us no matter what

[@QuestOutWest]

I will be posting soon. Sorry for the delay. I will explain everything. 💕

[@travellingtascha]

@@QuestOutWest Yeah I saw in another video that you are rejoining the rat race and getting an office job? (or am I confused?) No matter what you are doing, just know that work does not define you. Keep exploring, you'll be okay. And please do remember: You had the balls to leave a toxic "home" and do what many are to scared of. You showed the real obstacles of trying to make it with little to nothing. And even if it was (is) tough, those were some pretty rare experiences.

[@geeg7202]

Thank you for keeping it real. That’s the only people I watch.

[@kathybarnett6744]

the table and dresser are so cute! Hang in there!!

[@desire4liberation]

Your tenacity is impressive. great work but yeah people are really cutting back. Best wishes.

[@lizburrowschapin2871]

I'm SO GLAD YOU ARE BACK!!! YOU ARE A HERO TO ME!!! MISSED YOU LOTS!!! What I love is that you NEVER NEVER EVER GIVE UP!!!

[@QuestOutWest]

🤗💕💕💕💕

[@jmubreader]

Using oil based paint with a product called Penetrol brushstroke remover. Don’t be tempted by the water base formulation it’s crab oil base pants are more beautiful and last longer. A thin coat will give maximum shine.

[@QuestOutWest]

Good to know. Thnx

[@BC250]

Thanks for keeping it real!

[@rainbow_warrioress]

Exactly. If things were that easy, everyone would be doing it and rich. What we are seeing are wins. Perfectly worded. Out of one win there were likely lot of fails and for sure thousands of others who never got a win because usually things aren't as easy as they seem. It doesn't help feeling rushed with time to get the money. A lot of the ones that get a lot of wins is because they had the time, energy, and money to invest. But I love your message that anything is possible if you persevere. ❤

[@constantvanlife]

Awesome video 😊

[@QuestOutWest]

Thank you 💕

[@ldeeptogiola7655]

You went MIA and now you’re back! So what’s the plan? Hope you keep us informed? Thanks❤❤❤❤

[@kyddx]

Great video, cant wait for more ,🌷

[@jeanpayne2823]

Hi Natasha,Are you not doing any more videos well i hope that you’re ok and doing well.

[@QuestOutWest]

New video with answers coming soon.

[@HoneyandMe]

I admire your willingness and perseverance! I don't like painting enough to want to flip furniture, but I will paint for myself. Just finished painting my entire 25 foot travel trailer's interior, cabinets and walls and am super happy with how it looks, but, like I said, you couldn't pay me to do it as a job. Sounds like things are looking up though, so I'm excited to see the next video!

[@lifewith9cats153]

Happy you're back! Your furniture turned out beautifully!

[@TexasGranny]

Good to see you!

[@kjmclarke]

Unfortunately I think the market is to flooded now with people refurbishing free furniture. I think this was more profitable a couple years ago when less people were doing it.

[@7korres11]

Hey how are you and your kitty cats doing??

[@QuestOutWest]

Not bad. Thank you for asking. 💕

[@Heavyhearted44]

Where you from what state

[@lauraslanesvanlifetravels]

So happy to know your ok! Just thought about you recently and then BOOM, you appear! haha! That dude in the park was so sketch! Why can't people mind their own damn business and quit judging you, they are so damn bold, I remember that guy that talked to you at the coffee shop, geesh. Sorry your having such a hard time, it's tough when you can't work a regular job for whatever reasons, I have applied for disability & hopefully that gets approved, I STILL haven't found a job after my car debacle enabling me to be able to work delivery. (if you remember) Also, great news...getting my van VERY soon! I'm attending school to get a cert. in graphic design so I'm getting funds for that and going to have to get the hell outta here so I need at least a minivan because I cannot stand to live here anymore! Lastly, you are absolutely right about making dreams or income come true on your own! It's tough, I am still pursuing my photography and youtube channel but it's very slow growth, hopefully when I start vlogging, actually vlogging, my channel will grow...sorry so long, wish you and the kitties well!

[@QuestOutWest]

Ya! Congrats on the van!!!! And school 💕 glad things are looking up. 😄

You can always consign them .... at least you would get a little bit of cash.

[@missroxanne7123]

[@lindastrunk7298]

Why do these psycho old guys always bother you.

[@QuestOutWest]

Because I'm a female outside. 🤣😭

[@lindastrunk7298]

They make me mad

[@lucsmith2092]

As a guy once said to me “boobs” 🙄

[@djjd783]

People who don’t know how to process their own malcontent with the world are always looking to crap on someone over nothing. If it weren’t Natasha it would have been someone else that day…or each day. People can throw crap your way but nothing says you have to let it stick to you. 😁

[@geeg7202]

Just curious, what’s the situation with getting out of the heat now that’s what you were moving toward before the furniture turn

[@QuestOutWest]

Next vlog I will answer that. Next week.

Thanks. 💕 You changed your name?

[@Orëo1980]

@@QuestOutWest Yes I recently did. Oreo is my cats name, its cute but I thought this suited my “channel” name better. If that makes sense. I hope you have a wonderful week & looking forward to more videos 😊

[@timwhite8878]

Hi I do not want sound rude or heart less.you need think about your life and living condition. You should work full time .give the cats too your friend or some too take care for less say 4 months.you are a smart lady why wast your life over cats .Thinkabout your self first. Your health living in clean safe place.cats I love all animals. But some you have too put your self first.i my self went through very dart times in my life.i was at point were I wanted run away from my family .But think change I had work for it.

[@lauraslanesvanlifetravels]

Dude...do you know about her cats and her past???? I understand how she feels because I have suffered so much mental and emotional abuse from a non-caring guy who was a narcissist and I have a cat. This cat has seen me through everything...I wouldn't give him up FOR ANYTHING...maybe you don't get it...and I also understand how hard it is to keep a full time job when you have medical problems along w/not "fitting" in or conformity which I'm sure is also something she deals with...she's doing the best she can I'm sure.

[@BC250]

She loves her cats and takes good care of them but thank you for your concerns.

[@michellebaldwin29]

you shouldn't tell a stranger what they should do with their life, and Natasha has a medical condition, and I'm sure she makes money from KZbin. She also looked into work outside of that before. And she loves her cats; she even said they saved her life. I wouldn't give my Luna kitty away either. Natasha also moved away from a situation where she said she was abused. Some people like living in their car or van anyway.

[@rainbow_warrioress]

This is the whole point of her channel is to show people how to persevere. I disagree she should sacrifice her cats and there's no way in hell she would do that. I'm not sure how abandoning your best friend and children would make her feel better. A lot of people don't understand the bond others have with their pets. It's not a waste. I can think of a lot of selfish things people do that is a true waste of life and it's not giving love and compassion to animals. A life well lived is about experience, adventure, love, and compassion. Natasha is not only strong but a true inspiration of how to overcome to get to the life she wants instead of conforming to judgements and pressure from society. You don't find her videos entertaining or inspiring?

[@lucsmith2092]

You must be new to this channel. And also know bugger all about living with chronic health conditions…

[@lyndaabrahamson3244]

Hello Natasha. I'm so sorry to see how hard you worked on the furniture, it didn't turn out the way you hoped it would. As well as I thought it was going to work out. You've had some hard struggles Natasha and yet (in camera) should us strength through it. You have taught me to keep my head above water and keep going through the hard times. Hope you find an apartment soon and all things go well. Thank you for the update. See you next time.

[@cynthiahilliard3588]

You poor thing...I'm sorry things worked out that way. It's good you gifted them though. Good karma.

[@julien2912]

In your most previous video you were trying to get an apartment. In trying to flip furniture I guess you were hoping to make some money to pay for getting the apartment. I hope that working at the laundry for a few weeks to a month was long enough to make enough for first months rent for an apartment, then you wouldn't need the storage room anymore. Hopefully you could do furniture refurbishing at your own apartment if were able to get one. I hope that's what the big change is.

[@Heavyhearted44]

How much money you made
