This school bus is the height of luxury

[@Mekazas]

Your woodworking skills are getting better and better. Good luck on your roadtrip Emma, be safe!

[@HajnalkaGyurgyovics]

You've come such a long way as a "builder of confidence", like you're just effortlessly flowing through that bedroom build ✨

[@dawngrey259]

The wallpaper makes such a difference! Really dresses up the room. A little feedback if I may, it’s not so much the dry environment in Utah to keep you from worrying about mold under your mattress. It really has more to do with the fact that your breathing and living in a tin can, and you will be traveling to areas that are more humid. The holes you made in the plywood are a great first step. Next should be a mold & mildew primer and paint. Lastly a mattress underlay such as DEN-DRY to assure good air flow under the mattress. Great job Emma! Love watching your videos.

[@joerossiter1611]

The bus is really coming along and you’ve come a long way to keep up the good work, Emma😊

[@0HARE]

Wow, all that newly stained trim work, the wall paper, the new bedding, and the pictures look great! You did a great job, and should be proud.

[@leonhart2452]

I'm not sure if anyone else mentioned this, when you want to make a groove like you were doing it works better to make many cuts with the saw, like 1/2" - 3/4" apart, then use the smaller chisel to remove the bulk of the wood.

[@kannieschrijfnie2042]

You’re so natural in everything you post. Also this video is really you, so not filming everything does not make a difference for me as an Emma addicted viewer. I wish you only good things for your new road trip and many safe miles. Greetings from the Netherlands 🇳🇱

[@floridachickstinyadventures]

I just talked about this in my last video. I’ve been getting SOOO MUCH more done with my bus since I STOPPED filming everything! It’s so hard to do everything and it really messes up your momentum when you have to worry about filming too. Your bus is looking great BTW!

[@sonjadlong7554]

TOTALLY FABULOUS ❤️ it's gotta feel so nice ❤️

[@mscarlarn]

Love your bedroom! You are quite the carpenter now. Safe travels. Xoxo

[@ribbleslipscomb5171]

Hey Emma, the bedroom looks so dang cozy. ❤❤

[@richardmoore2590]

How very far you have come from when you started this project. Love watching how it has come together, and how you have perceived to make it a reality. Looking forward to future road trips. Sending love…

[@BigDaddyOworkshop]

I totally understand the camera distraction. I stopped making videos years ago because I just wanted to get projects DONE. it's amazing how much longer everything takes when you need to deal with a camera and the hours of editing after. on the bright side, the videos do give you an additional push to complete the projects so you can finish the video.

[@EmmaBuildsBirbie]

That’s true! I definitely never would’ve gotten this far if I didn’t have the videos to keep me on a schedule

[@Bwilliams2]

Your energy and determination is awesome. Good luck with this project.

[@Earle63]

The bedroom looks great!

[@dougintothesunset]

I love the trim in the bedroom, it looks great with the white and the wallpaper. Nice job! Thanks for sharing.

[@mp-ss6sy]

Love your videos. Thank you for taking the time to do them.

[@bebopandbecca3096]

You need to use wallpaper paste despite it being "peel and stick". I learned the hard way. Also it sticks better on a painted surface.

[@bertrandcorbeau]

The room is magnificent! 😊😊😊

[@cheryesido364]

Hi Emma, your bedroom looks stunning. I used 2 brass screws on both sides of my frames to stop them falling while I was travelling. I made them a feature on the frame.

[@stevenhartley7659]

Don't forget to provide ventilation for your mattress on your bed. Either drill holes in the plywood or by an underlay ventilation mat.

[@MelissaMalzahn]

Safe travels your home is looking very beautiful. Great job getting things done. Can't wait to see your kitchen completed. ❤

[@hannahgreen1348]

It's looking epic! I've always wanted to move into a vehicle full time and build my own home on wheels but watching your videos definitely puts into perspective how much work it involves! I've definitely downplayed it in my mind. Keep up the good work, you're out there living our dream!

[@sigreddasparks16]

The bus is coming along! Good job Emma!

[@davidlundy5007]

In cutting that groove in the trim board, a table saw did that for me easily. Just kept moving the piece over a little the thickness of the blade multiple times and WaLa.

[@pennylynndauphin9405]

Courtyard by Marriott has the best pillows ever.

[@javabeanz8549]

I like the look of the trimmed out bedroom. But then, I am a fan of the natural wood look.

[@1tballen]

I never thought to use pictures to hold up wallpaper ! 😂😂You're doing Awesome

[@patriciaharkin1571]

Look at you with your trim and caulking! Love the new bedding and the wallpaper, It's all looking great Emma. Enjoy your road trip.

[@EmmaBuildsBirbie]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@darkeyedcajunwoman1398]

Great job, Emma…that was a lot of work and it looks amazing!

[@nourltuber]

Wishing you luck on your road trip! Keep smiling Emma! 🍀😁

[@donnyk9]

love the bedroom came out great.

[@JayCollins2013]

Your confidence level has grown so much. ❤

[@thatguy7085]

I like the front bike rack

[@justplaintommy63]

The Franken-trim is inspired! Great idea. And the laundry chute ? :O ! genius. Great work Emma :)

[@miteshraja4823]

I admire your handywomon skills 😂❤

[@moonbeamadventures6115]

I really love watching you build your dream. I'm more than twice your age and I love seeing someone with such courage and boldness just doing it! Keep going! Couple of ideas I'd like to share. I have a 1980 vintage-ish, 12 ft travel trailer named Moonbeam. One of my most favorite ways to cover up flat surfaces is fabric and Mod Podge. It is amazing stuff. I have covered the walls of this little camper repeatedly as it has changed its purpose. Just another layer. It would be a great way to cover your walls and anything else with fabric. And it gives a hard surface. So far, no issues with moisture and I live in Florida. Check it out. It is amazing stuff. Wish I could send you a picture. Best of luck building birdie. I'll keep watching

[@EmmaBuildsBirbie]

That’s a cool idea! I might try it out

[@tedduke1699]

Looking GOOD Emma.

[@itscarolinemary]

been here since the beginning, the bus is looking so good!

[@fransie44]

looks cozy ...... well done

[@michelle14749]

The bus is looking so pretty! I could live in this bus.

[@dnonya5208]

You're doing great Emma!! Love the color coordination. 😍 💜

[@JR-mq2mv]

Best way to cut a groove is to use a table saw. Drop the blade down to how deep you want the groove and run the board over the blade from one side to the other. Plenty of KZbin vids to guide you

[@michelleparker9591]

Great job Emma! Looks beautiful!

[@jooprose]

That bedroom looks great!

[@andrewhayek6573]

Looking good kiddo your getting there keep up the great work 👍

[@JayCollins2013]

Miss your videos. But enjoy the ones you post when you can❤

[@michaelholbrook4401]

For the trim that you wanted to cut the groove out, incase you want to something similar in the future, you want to make several more cuts, just like the two you did, down the center between the two. Then when you take the chisel down the middle, the thinner strips chisel right out. However, then you don't get the chance to ever say the word "frakentrim"... that there is a win! :)

[@AB-C1]

Hey Emma, It looks brilliant! (I'd just paint the bathroom with clear epoxy resin so that it's waterproof!) Then you won't lose your wall paper and it'll still look the same as the epoxy will seal it but be clear! Aside from that you've done Brilliantly again! Have a great week cheers from London 👍😉🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧

[@stacynissley7336]

Your bedroom looks awesome!! You are doing a great job. I

[@tjohn4398]

Are you gonna cover the windows? You have done a great job on your bus.

[@russellfrancis826]

grate job and good luck on your road trip

[@kirbywolff]

Wow! Looks awesome!

[@simplybeingme]

Almost a perfect match with your ceiling❤ it’s really pretty darn close! Great job

[@tableshaper4076]

Try using an iron on the wall paper.... as in, use a heated iron to help press the wallpaper on. The heat will help activate the glue. You can also buy wallpaper glue.

[@tedpreston4155]

True! On some surfaces, a hot air gun works well as a substitute for the iron. But peel and stick paper will be a continual problem anyway, since you'll be subjecting those walls to frequent changes in temperature and humidity. On the upside, it will give you a reason to remodel your bedroom someday. You will have an obvious topic for a future video, and you can make double use of some of your footage from this video when you show us bloopers about why you need to "remodel."

[@davidfrierson7284]

Hay I love your videos Keep up Good job on the bus

[@cynthiadavis2338]

Beautiful

[@skogsbosse]

I've never understood that thing about having a lot of pillows like that. Other than that, I think you've done a super nice job of making it look nice

[@MichaelLynch-zs9mr]

Being a male I never understand pillows I have two in my apartment if there three mean I have to take out trash😂

[@danaowen9014]

Your underestimating your ability to do things, look how great your room came out. You can put wallpaper glue on the back and use a plastic wallpaper smoothing tool, from lowe's and it will get the bubbles out.

[@JackWelsh-l7x]

You did great trying the chisel

[@espnmk]

Great job Emma Birbie's Bedroom came out looking fantastic you might not want to give pointers or want peeps to take advice on building (i would) but they can take a CAN do attitude just get it done. Great Job Thanks for sharing, keep up the great work.

[@motercycle80]

Looks great 👍

[@lorraineowen7978]

You've done an amazing job, looks so lovely. 😊

[@trevorupton6904]

Looking good Emma ❤😁

[@Debsrockart]

Looks amazing ❤

[@MKDSime]

Job well done 👍 congratz looks very lovely

[@brockvagis1657]

Are you kidding your an awesome film maker it really makes my day when I see you have a new video and you have skills you do great work doing one of these buses is definitely a learning experience 🥰

[@jasonjones5213]

You got a lot done off camera.The bedroom looks great.

[@TomJones0065]

Lol Yes the ratchet straps, I use them things for EVERYTHING! Well almost.. I save all Your Bus Videos, I am also building a bus, and I GET IT! Sometimes it gets FUSTRATING! But you WILL prevail! Your a Wonderful Lil gal and I Love Watching ya work, threw it all! Be safe, Yeah its April now and Damned if the weather aint WILD, Rain, Thunder Lightning! and ITS ALSO SNOWING! WOW! Stay Warm Emma! BE SAFE!

[@ryunova6128]

Ooh you look so cool doing all the things lol. It looks great 9/10😂

[@Valicyn]

try using spray glue to put up your walpaper. Might work.

[@the_dingo_show]

I'm so late this week lol. Anyway I think it was Jimmy DiResta who said something like ~ The important stages to film a project is when something changes Shape~ Anyway the bedroom is looking Mint

[@davidlundy5007]

I’ve done the same as you in respect to working on your bus and me on my Sprinter. You think you know what you want and you start building with really no plan. It’s take a long time to get it exactly right. If not you change it. That’s the fun of it.

[@David-Poyner]

When loading your Monkey, try putting the front wheels of the bus in a dip or rear wheels on a mound. This will lower the ramp and maybe make things easier?

[@chrisedmonson9471]

Look into hypervent for under the bed... it will save you a lot of grief later.

[@robinhoward9113]

safe travels

[@jeffreythomas9106]

Hey beautiful Emma. Glad to see you with another great video hope everything is going well for you. Keep up the good work. Love you 💛💛💛💛💐💐💐💐💛

[@davidalexander4043]

white board with a list of things you need todo do one thing at a time ;)

[@michaelirizarry5037]

yay emma and birbie is back! on the sticky wall paper , what kind of prep did you do to the wall before applying the paper? love the bathrooms design and look. can't wait to see the counter tops when you get them done. love the way the bedroom came out.

[@richardwoodward3363]

Good job❤

[@tableshaper4076]

Get the store to shake the cans when you buy them.

[@karagregory69]

Just a thought, instead of looking at KZbin as a distraction to the project, instead look at it as a way to get money for the next project. You get paid per view, and if filmed you get money to offset the expenses of doing the project. It might take longer to film it, but if that offsets the costs of materials and puts money in your pocket for your time, does that make it worth it? Hope you keep posting, I love to see the progress of the bus.

[@EmmaBuildsBirbie]

I plan to keep posting! I’m not looking at filming as a distraction, simply realizing that it is one and that it could be improved

[@NYTROeast]

You have to make a bunch of those blade cuts and then down it with the chisel

[@scottfaulds2645]

U need blinds for the bedroom and the rest of bus to keep it cool but u are doing great job

[@canadianwarrior8535]

Stop building/changing. Start enjoying.

[@EmmaBuildsBirbie]

I did the “enjoying it” half finished part, I’m going to try to complete my project now

[@creativedesign3657]

Hi Emma it's Tony I have commented several times to your build I pray to God that hopefully you will read this one and everything you're doing in the bathroom looks nice but sweet you got to remember you are dealing with water in the shower any would seal it off as if it was a deck and or cover the wood with polyurethane if you get the paper stick and I would also cover that with Polly I would definitely like to commend you for taking on and achieving everything you did building this bus I commend you highly I have no clue about making videos the one I work I don't like distraction so must be very difficult for you to do both well take care have a great day pleasant dreams

[@punjabseth260]

nice

[@creativedesign3657]

Hi Emma it is Tony again the last comment I left was just spontaneous because it hurts me to see you get in despair you put a lot of effort into this and I don't want to see all your efforts go down the drain and that's not a pon being that you working in the bathroom shower like I have the same pajamas LOL and I noticed your hair is growing yeah let it grow you look phenomenal with long hair and I generally don't give compliments sweetie keep up the good work and I'll see you in the next video take care of yourself pleasant dreams

[@janhjorth965]

Your bed base holes are going to be crucial in keeping mold and mildew out of your mattress….the source of humidity is YOU

[@justwannasay5454]

Who thought she was going to knock that red cup of stain over? 😮

[@aswewonder8805]

Color me impressed.

[@KayoK2]

Yay new vid!

[@JMassengill]

What kind of iPad do you use and would you buy it again if given the chance? Thanks. Beautiful work!

[@EmmaBuildsBirbie]

I’m not really sure, I think just the regular model (not pro or air) from a year or two ago (it doesn’t have a button). It’s nice to have for some of the stuff I do but not super essential. If I was going to buy a tablet, though, I’d definitely get this one again :)

[@beachlife9419]

Awesome job, 👍👍👍 u should just try to finish one area complete then do another, all is nice though, just saying is all

[@PeterKNoone]

What is it with women and throw pillows? Nice job dude. Looks great.

[@lauramoor7730]

Use gorilla glue spray for the wallpaper 😊I did that worked great 👍

[@zaftra]

and i still will never understand why she doesn't have curtains

[@joshhhab]

Did you solve loading-unloading problem of your motorbike?

[@EmmaBuildsBirbie]

Yes! The monkey has recently made its 2023 debut

[@tonykartracer8032]

Gotta admit, I'm intimidated by this chick....... she pretty hardcore, building a bus by herself.

[@jennifergraham9679]

maybe the height of luxury but i dont know about that bathroom,wall paper baothroom walls.
