Hi

I'm hoping to purchase a 90's caravan in the near future and will have a budget for a caravan from the 90's it will be a four or five berth but wondered if any of you have any photos of makeover projects you've done? I.e cushions, curtains even decor. My priority is to buy a caravan that's solid with no damp but on those days when it's raining I'd like to sit in a pretty space. I know a lot of the vintage caravans are made over beautifully but wondered if it could be done in say a Swift Challenger, Bailey Pageant etc but it would be nice to see what you've achieved.

That's helpful 😜 as above that's a first priority but I want to see has been done by people so I can visualise what I can do with one to make something unloved look nice

Thankyou, I've been looking on Pinterest and on YouTube which are great I just couldn't see many vans from the 90's getting done. There was a lovely one on eBay which was done on a Baileys Pageant but she notified us of damp before the auction ended. Just need to find the right caravan with no damp within our budget to make it look nice.
