💥AFTER ➡️ PROCESS ➡️ BEFORE 💥

Reminiscing on the beauty! This is proof you can make anything happen! My client requested open shelving and I tried to make that work with the previous body of the cabinet. Unfortunately it could be done, so I went back to the drawing board and decided to build from scratch! I started by rebuilding the body, router the shelves to slide in nicely. Then decided to build a new face frame with clean edges for the perfect touch! Butcher block was the perfect call by them as well, soo clean looking. The last touch was tiling the back splash! I’m thrilled we ended up doing that as well. Simple & timeless!

Now go check out this beauty all put together with the perfect touches by don’t just go look either, you go book yourself that getaway you’ve been thinking about, YOU DESERVE IT 🥰😍

If anyone is looking for a relaxing getting away for a weekend in the Catskills THIS is the place! Peaceful, beautiful scenery, and great people! 🤗

I’m so happy for Starlite Motel Kerhonkson!! It looks wonderful and I love what you’ve done inside decor! I can’t wait to see it being loved by so many friendly faces! Thank you! 🥲😍

CAMPER INTERIORS, CONTINUED! Today’s focus is the kitchen. Tiny bit mighty, guests will have a a functional faucet, sink, and stovetop- all housed in butcher block, all new, all custom- to make their life even more exciting when sleeping over. And yes, we give you complimentary in the trailer, too!

The second picture is definitely when I questioned my life choices 🤣 but I kept going to the end result!

We started on the bottom now we are here! HOLLLLY cow look at the difference. This is just the front end of trailer. Wait till you see the rest 😉 So as you scroll over you can see the water damage was right down both corner seams and along the roof line. That’s pretty typical. Now it doesn’t look too bad it’s what’s underneath that damage that tends to be ALOT. So as I started removing I got rid of all the insulation, any wood that was too far gone, and all the damaged panelling. Also got rid of a lot of 🐭 houses (🤢yuck!) They love these camper walls! I removed the old water tank as my client is able to hook up to the plumbing on site permanently. I’m really glad we didn’t keep the upper cabinets as not you can really see the curve in this cutie! This is now the perfect space for a small table or two chairs! Now its a beautiful open space that feels open and airy.

I had to pause on my one camper to start this one but I’ve been working so hard on this. I never thought I’d be as far as I am. I haven’t updated much but here’s a little one!

It’s a 1970s trailblazer! I will try to update with
Pictures and videos soon!

I tried to salvage the cabinets at first but it was just too tricky. So I built these cabinets from scratch. Got the butcher block in and cut in the sink and faucet today! I can’t express how pleased I am with how it’s coming along. Sanding and paint next! 😍

Hi everyone! Happy Saturday! I know it’s been awhile since I have been able to update lots of little things have come up! Thankfully we’re all healthy and had a fun holiday! I hope everyone has as well! So here is from the last week of October to now, January 2021!

Down to business! Lots of things have changed, oh my so much! I’ll bullet point for this update haha!

* The front curved panel; looked simple but not so much! Took a few tries but finally figured it out! At first I attempted with master ply. It was just too stiff. So after some research and some help. I was able purchase 1/4 in birch plywood right at Home Depot. It bent soooo much better! Have yet to cut the front window out but I pick it up next week from getting repaired! To recreate the format it was originally in i needed to have 1 3/4” pieces cut from 3/4” plywood. The thin pieces needed to be cut so it can bend easier with the grain (lesson learned after cutting against the grain and attempting to bend them. I broke like 5 and gave myself some nice bruises hah!). The slices have to be secured on with wood glue and then clamped down to dry. I have left the clamps on extra long because why not!
* The entire layout is reconfigured thanks to an amazing contractor who is helping me out. I wanted to maximize my clients storage space as this will be her home permanently and I just needed someone much more experienced to help me out! He definitely did! Now not only do we have extra cabinets, he built custom cabinets for this trailer! Ahhh and they are sooo perfect!
* All the walls have been primed with interior paint, all the cabinet doors have been painted and sanded x4 just for perfection!
* All the ceiling panels are up which I’ll paint again white. They are from Home Depot, shiplap style!
* The bathroom is now being put on the opposite side which will now be in a better position.

So the plan this week is to make the bed so the other front panel can be placed and we can seal her up and get her ready for insulation! 😍 I will try to do better with updates in the future!

So far this week he’s done a lot of sleeping in the job but I’ll cut him some slack.

Meet Wheeler! 😍

It’s been a busy week over here! I managed to get the floor down, layout where I’d like the bathroom to go and the bed. Figured out that I could find a better fitted shower base which was amazing! Nailed the color scheme with my client! Best of all I framed the bathroom
Today which is something I have never done but hey, there’s a first time for everything and I think it came out amazing for a first timer! 😍🥰

It’s not finished I just set the base there to see how it would look! 🤪 my impatient self haha.

HELLLLO FALL! 🍂🍁🍃

Here’s a little update on when’s been going on in the garage!

Finally started the little canned ham! Obviously this baby needs a total rehab. She was out living with some cows for sometime but she’s got good bones and I’m ready to bring her back to life!

This week has been alllll a learning process and a not so easy one but I love it! I knew there was obvious water damage. I didn’t know to what extent but I am truly surprised there wasn’t more. I wasn’t too worried because I believe anything can be fixed if you think outside the box and are patient! (Patiences are a work in progress for me 😂)

- Windows out
- Door frame out
- Removing lights and antenna
- Removing all the rivets (that was fun!🤪)
- Skin off
- Insulation GONEEE

This is what I’m left with! I’m so excited for what’s to come for this transformation. I am going to do my best with updating more. Keep an eye out! 🥰

It’s official, like really official. Molly is sold! I am a mix of emotions honestly. I’m so grateful to have been able to enjoy doing such a fun project. I’m thankful to have had sleepovers with my boys in it! I will miss her dearly, I put so much love into it and I know where she’s going she will have as much love! 😍This is the start to amazing new journey and I couldn’t have done it without the support of my family and friends. THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH! 🥰 I’ll miss you!
