Dana’s Pop Up Camper Makeover

I always get so excited when I see makeovers that were inspired by other reader features here on the blog.  This next makeover came to me from a reader named Dana, and she loved the table in Becca’s makeover so much, she decided to incorporate something similar in her own makeover.
Here is what Dana and her husband started with.  It’s your basic, run-of-the-mill Coleman camper, just begging for a little TLC.
Dana and her husband removed most of the cabinets from the camper.  Then, they taped off the edges of the cabinetry and primed and painted everything.
While they had everything disassembled and out of the camper, they also used Rustoleum Oil Rubbed Bronze spray paint to give the cabinet hardware, swing galley handle, table legs, and kitchen faucet a whole new look.
Remember I told you that Dana loved Becca’s wood plank table?  Well, she loved it so much, that she decided to replace all the countertop surfaces in her camper with wood planks.  Dana’s husband came up with his own unique version of the “Becca Table” and  incorporated it throughout the camper.  While they were making changes, they removed the stove top in the swing galley to give them more counter space.  Since Dana and her husband do most of their cooking outdoors, their stove was obsolete.  They love all the counter space this little mod gave them.  🙂
Dana made all new curtains and valances for the camper, reusing her original hardware.  (If you need a tutorial, we posted one here.)  Instead of permanently lining her curtain panels, though, Dana made separate liners for each panel that attach with Velcro.  Now she can remove the lining and wash it separately, as needed.  Great idea, Dana.
She also sewed all new cushion covers, following the tutorial we posted here.  Dana tells me she fought her way through the corners on this project, but I don’t know if I believe her!  Those cushions look pretty amazing to me.  😉  The table was constructed in the same way as the countertops were.  Doesn’t it look fabulous?  I love that finish.
And to round out the remodel, Dana and her husband installed a floating plank vinyl floor, using quarter round trim to cover the gaps around the trailer walls and cabinets.  Look at that floor!  It matches the countertops and table perfectly.

What a beautiful transformation!  It doesn’t even look like the same camper!  I am constantly amazed when I see makeovers like this.  It is obvious that Dana was inspired by Becca’s makeover, but her trailer looks completely unique–and I love that!
