Soooo... We spent over $4,000 getting a tradesmen to install our windows as we didn't want to risk breaking glass doing it ourselves.
Now storm season is among us & we have had some rain recently, we have realised our window sills fill up with water and overflow onto the caravan walls 🤔
So we've had to spend 2x nights running around window to window with towels & tissues to prevent any more water coming in/filling up the window sills.
We used silicone where we thought the rain was coming in, both times when the rain had stopped. Yet when it rained again, the window sills filled up and overflowed. Us being clueless as eachother🤭 only today had the idea to drill out our own drainage holes to let the water out 🤣🤣 here's a video of us testing our theory & succeeding 😁🥰 bring on the rain! Trial & Error baby! Wouldn't trade this ever. We love our tiny home 💘 on another positive note, we got a part refund from the tradie for the inconvenience ☺

We can now sleep in our beautiful tiny home! What a long & hard process, but so rewarding. 🥰💕
For the interior all we need to do is install the flooring, and do a little more painting, but overall we are finally finished 🥳🤯

This may sound silly to some... but we are only in our early twenties doing a complete caravan restoration by ourselves and we like to believe our posts will someday help other young couples to find the courage to say no to a home loan and yes to van life! While we're young we want to travel and enjoy all the freedom we have! 🥰

Soo.. this door fell apart on us, completely, making all the panels come out of the frame. Thanks wind! We tried to put it together whilst on the hinges but that was a fail, over and over again 😠🤣
Eventually we decided to take it off the hinges, instead of using pot rivets that were previously used, I used screws to put the hinges back on, screwed each door frame panel together, and glued every single panel into the frame. (Thanks Gorilla Glue) No more falling apart!!😁 this took us weeks and put so much stress on us as the door wouldn't close properly 😒 we are sooo glad that's done. It works way better & even looks better 😉😆

YAYYYYY! Brand new windows! Originally I wanted to go with the same style (push out) but I ended up choosing screens to prevent bugs entering & cats escaping 😹
