Inside My Caravan :: Part 2 ::

I have not blogged about my caravan renovation since the one and only post way back here. 

It is becoming a long drawn out project - which I had not planned or wanted to happen.
There have been menial and boring jobs that have had to be done which have given me feelings of deflation and a lack of enthusiasm, and to be honest I have floundered and almost given up.
Fortunately my Hubby has given me several boosts of encouragement (there is an expression for this action) and has made me overcome tears of frustration and feelings of being overwhelmed. 

So here is a progress report of sorts....

I have removed all of those awful wood panel walls, the wardrobe, the ceiling, and the worst job has been removing hundreds of tiny staples from the wood frame.

I am keeping the over head cupboards for storage of my crafty bits and bobs.

Then there is this window to contend with;

there is a leak that I will get Hubby to take a look at for me. 

 I have rung an electrician to do the necessary electrical repairs/work.
We arranged the time for him to come for a look, and he has not shown up (more deflation). 

I will make another call to him next week.

I am collecting styrofoam boxes to use for the ceiling insulation, which can be put in once the electrician has done his work with the wiring.

I still have the floor to replace and the walls will be next to insulate and replace.

Then the serious stuff can happen,
a coat of paint inside and out,
a custom built table for the sewing machine and over locker,
and a bench seat with storage,
and my favourite part will be to decorate this beauty with my stuff.

Stay tuned.......

p.s. any words of encouragement will be greatly appreciated.

Inside My Caravan

This is what my caravan renovation looks like on the inside so far.....

As you can see I have removed most of the panels from the walls and doors from the cupboards. 

There is still a lot more to do!
It is already looking much better without the interesting wood panelling! 

I usually have my little helper with me while I work, so to keep the little helper occupied I set up play things outside on the grass - but it's not long before the little helper continually needs or wants something and I have to stop and start!  

I'm hoping that my little helper will be occupied over the weekend by her doting Dad (he has a couple of much needed days off ), which will hopefully allow me to get some work done - uninterrupted!

The blue tarp that is covering the broken window has been finally removed - we now have a brand new window!
