Vintage (?) Camper Redo

So I have been MIA, sorry. Life you know. I have a couple of projects, but I can't get my camera to work. I almost didn't post this and the next post since the only pictures I have are from my phone, but, use your imagination and pretend they are wonderful photos, okay?

My darling husband came home a few days ago with this:

We normally tent camp, but due to my health, and our age, this is getting tougher to do. So I was not to upset. The price was good. It belonged to a friend of a friend who only used it for hunting. Hence, the décor.

Camo! I hate camo. The walls were brown, and to me very depressing and claustrophobic. It is very small anyway and the brown just made it seem closer. The refrigerator, stove and most importantly the air conditioner as well as electric all worked. The water heater was cracked, which we found when we tried to test out the water, so out it went. We are waiting on a new one to arrive. She had a 3 gallon, with a little modification we can fit it with a 6 gallon, so that is what we went with.

Now the guys are thrilled with the camo. I am not. I have refused to camp in it without a redo. I won. Everything has been drug out of her. The guys will start painting everything with primer and then white. I have ordered fabric to make curtains (only has valances now) and to cover the cushions.  Although I am afraid I am stuck with the harvest gold appliances. I will post pictures as we go along.

I always wanted to redo a vintage camper, I was just thinking of something a little different lol. Oh, it has a "bathroom", although I use that term loosely. That will have to wait until next winter when we have more time and hopefully the funds.



Stay tuned!
