Glamp My Camper!

Meet Flossie!  I begged my husband to let me buy this 1966 trailer camper. Not only did he say yes, but he agreed to drive me clear to Detroit to pick it up. 23 hours round trip. Straight. :(  The longest trip of my life..
But! I LOVE it. :) Totally worth it. The outside was darling but the inside needed some paint and TLC. One coat of primer and 6 coats if paint and she was a new girl! I decked her out with a chandelier and glass knobs and drawer pulls. I went crazy buying retro decor and string lights. I even found a darling flamingo to adorn the outside of my home away from home! My dad and husband helped me install a permanent air conditioner inside and I added some pretty paintable wallpaper to the old back splash. We bought a little flat screen TV with a built in dvd player to stick in there for the kids and a memory foam mattress  topper for the hubby and I. <3 it! Here's some pictures I took along the way:


Interior before. Old knobs on the counter.

Primed!

Viola!
