Let’s show you the camper!
Two goals for the year all depend on us fixing up an old truck bed camper. We chose this camper because we don’t have to pay to have tags on it, we got a great deal on it, the three of us can fit nicely in it and it really doesn’t need a ton of work! Oh, and did I mention how much money we will save by not staying in expensive hotels!!
The Mr. has managed to already start plugging away at fixing the legs (a previous owner just about ripped them off!) He also patched the holes in the canvas too! (He’s kind of amazing!) However, there’s plenty more to be done!
The toilet/shower: we need to put in storage and get a new shower curtain. The Mr. also will be fixing a leak from the water hose
This is a straight view from the door! The table is up on the bed because a certain child enjoys hanging out in here!
The flooring and cabinets are in great shape, so I won’t be changing them! But, I will show you that interesting fabric up close!
The loft/bed area just needs some sprucing up! We plan on buying a cozy comforter set, changing the curtains, and adding more lighting!
This is the dining/second bed area. When you put the cushion down, it creates an extra sleeping space. When it’s up, the table slides in the middle. We are looking at making the table area easier to take out/put in. And that fabric will be changed up! It has seen better days and is not comfy!
The tiny kitchen area is pretty great as is! We might put in a new faucet, if it needs it. We also need to figure out storage for reusable cups, plates and silverware! We don’t want to create a lot of trash on our trip!
And then there’s the list! I’m in charge of recovering cushions, making new curtains, adding organizational touches. And the Mr… well, he has a lot of not so fun jobs that I’ll be helping with too!
So, now on to what we have already completed: we managed to find a cheap comforter set that’s not girly. 😆
The Mr. forged a nice handle to put on the broken cabinet! It will also be a towel hanger for dishes, or whatnot!
So, we are going to keep working away at creating a nice space for future vacations! And, we are hoping to use this during Easter break to try it out!! Keep blooming friends!
Camper looks great! Bet it will be awesome to travel in!
