It's done. It took three days, to take apart, tape, paint, put back together, and to do a few other things l have been wanting to for a while. But it is done.
And......
I really, really like it. I am very happy with the outcome of a few coats of paint.
Not bad for an old girl, the van, not me!!!
I have just made the van my 'home'. Sounds crazy since l have been living in it since April. I have done little things to put my stamp on it prior to this. However, painting it was a major Reno for me.
I have never like panelling, whether in a home or a van/RV. I find it just plain butt ugly. Now it is gone.
I am now motivated to add a few more things to make it my home. Artwork, drapes, little kitchy things.....
And of course, a new floor!!!! That's next. I think the person who l am house sitting for is going away in a couple of months again....might be the perfect time to install a new floor.
It's so pretty!!!!!
ReplyDeleteWow looks so NICE!!!
ReplyDeletePretty dang amazing! Looks like a whole new van :)

ReplyDeletelooks great! I too, call my rv home, lived in it for quite a long time.....you've given me some great ideas!!!
ReplyDeleteOh wow, what a difference! It is so fresh and bright and homey and that bed must call your name. Great job!
ReplyDeleteI just read through from the before pictures to the reveal. I am so in awe and so impressed with the difference, I am speechless. You and your home are a-ma-zing! Congratulations Tammy. You are a huge inspiration.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful home you have! Great job!!! :)
ReplyDeleteJob well done on the RV renovation! It definitely looks like home! In fact, it looks like a studio apartment. And I think the white paint goes well with the cabinets. It makes the RV space look a little
ReplyDeleteI think this looks wonderful! I bought a tiny trailer for weekend jaunts and I'm painting all of it too. It's from the eighties and while it is wonderfully cute and well-designed, it is all paneling and plaid! I'm redoing it all in cream and linen and black.
ReplyDeleteYour blog is a nice read, I'm happy to see how much you enjoy your downsizing. I have a very small home, but we plan on traveling in a campervan if we ever manage to actually retire.
