Well this post has been a long time coming. And I have been putting it off for a couple of reasons. 1.) Most of the RV was completed last summer, but we still have a couple projects to do, like the flooring, before I wanted to post pics;) and 2.) I wanted to do this … MY $500 CAMPER REMODEL THAT I DID ALL BY MYSELF Read More »

Hey guys, welcome to 2021. Hope it's treating you well! This year is off to an exciting start because after ONE WHOLE YEAR (how?) we have finally completed our vintage camper remodel. For a little background - we bought this camper in 2019 for $600 with the plan to maybe turn it into a photo booth, maybe just a camper? Honestly we didn't think that we would even have time to touch it in 2020 because we were so busy with our photo booth business - Lamphouse Photo Co. WELP. With all events and weddings canceled in March 2020 we started work on our 1968 Play Mor 140. AND! We documented the entire process on our YouTube channel: Trailer Trash to Treasure Which, (woo-hoo) just passed 1k subscribers! We worked on the camper every week and finished it almost exactly a year from when we started. Here's the before tour: First the exterior. Oof. Poor guy had been given the rattle can mossy oak treatment and it was doing his cute shape NO favors. Next up, the "kitchen" BIG USE OF QUOTATION MARKS THERE ; ) What's there to say, it was basically gone. Disintegrated. Like the little scalloped edge on the cabinet though so style points for that I guess. Here's the dinette that would fold down into a bed: The other ~bed~ Would you sleep there? So we got to work with the help of my dad, Dave and mom, Connie and demolished the interior first: We then took it down to the frame, rebuilt the walls, ceiling, stripped the skin and repainted the exterior and ta-da, here's the final product: The kitchen after: I think the kitchen might be my favorite part of the camper. We installed a new faucet, built upper and lower cabinets, added a water pump and water system and new hardware of course. Next up, the front "dinette" We ended up opting for storage and turned the dinette into a permanent couch/bed. We're tent campers and we usually eat outside on a picnic table so we didn't think we would spend the time to convert it back and forth every day from a dinette to a bed. And finally, the bedroom: Did I say the kitchen was my favorite? Maybe this is? Idk, I love it all. Simon is a big fan of the big, fluffy bed: The bed converts back into a couch area during the day to add a tiny amount of floor space, access to under the bed storage, and a nice seating area for meals or relaxing.

If you need proof that tiny spaces can pack a big style punch, look no further than this trailer redo from Becky Morgan and her wife Sarah Wackett (@builtbywackett). The couple found this 1958 Glendale trailer on a farm, where it had been sitting out in the elements for years. “There was mold, the inside was rotting, and it was dark and cold,” Becky says. “The sweetest guy sold it to us because he just wanted it off his property but it was in pretty bad shape.
Our pop up trailer makeover was a slow and steady summer project for us. If you’re local to our location, an hour west of Toronto, then you KNOW we experienced more rain than sunshine this summer. Although, we still managed o squeeze every bit of summer goodness out of the kids holidays, it did take us more time than expected to finish painting the inside of our sweet little camper.#thecampercottage If you’re in the market for a camper overall in the future, I’d love to share with you all of the things we did to make our small space perfect for our families needs. Steps, if you will. What worked for us and what didn’t. What we did, day by day, to completely makeover our little camper with our three kids in tow. (no pun intended.) ;0 So without further ado, here is what we did! First, we thoroughly cleaned the camper by washing down all the walls, bedding, cupboards and the inside of the cabinets. Next we started by removing the pair of tables that impeded the flow of the trailer. We are in the process of creating a custom dining table for the dining booth but for now […]
