Interior Project

Since I can't work on the outside of the camper with the cold weather, I can work on some interior projects. I love collecting vintage jewelry and have lots of it. So I finally used some of it in this project. I am so happy with how it turned out. I had bought the oval frame at an estate sale last year. It was missing some trim, but I knew I could use it for something. So I painted it cream and used some burnt amber to add some depth. I think I still may sand the edges a bit. I put some pink fabric on some chipboard as the backbone and begin gluing away. I used hot glue, thinking it would adhere better to the fabric, but also to take a part at a later date. Now just to find the perfect spot in the camper for it. I am thinking the back wall so you can see it when you look into the camper.

Collecting

So even though I still didn't have my camper yet, that didn't stop me from shopping to outfit it. I had a vision of going with blue and pink, I kinda got the blue from the original blue I saw in the pictures. Since I love estate sales and thrift stores, cause you never know what you will find that where I started. I found some shish kabob holders, some wire trays, some plastic storage, an aluminum ice bucket, some aluminum bowls, enamel bowl, grilling accessories, knives, camping cups. Then I also found some cool cups on EBay and Etsy - I am so loving the thermal Bopp Decker stuff. I got a pitcher, mugs, juice cups and cups. I got both pink and blue. I now decided to go with pink and gray color scheme. So I will resell the blue stuff. I also found some cool plates, bowls and dishes in the Melmac family - So I continue to search for Newport Westinghouse and Branchell Colorfylte. I also have a vision of making little curtains to put in the upper shelving from some material I saw at Hobby Lobby. This so pretty - girly pink satin that also has some tufted sections that kinda look like flowers. I saw this and wanted to build around it.
I was thinking of using my vintage pink bedspreads as cushion covers, but I may go with gray bottoms and a floral backrest and use the bedspread for pillows. I also got a small weber grill, a coleman lantern, an electric griddle (Since I don't have an oven) and I found some really cool pink and gray plastic canisters - SOOOOO CCUUUTTEEEEE
