      It looks great and you could cover the bottom of the trays with that white vinyl from the wall.🥰 Happy camping 🏕!!!!💗

      Oh my! 1. That turned out great! 2. We have a super fun summer camping trip planned....excuse me while I go order a new mattress, because our current RV mattress is garbage! Loved this transformation!

      Where did you get that bedspread. I love that it’s so light and thin for hot nights.

      Can you please link your comforter or what brand it is? Tried looking on the target website and wasn’t able to find it. Thanks!!

      Yes, please. I came to the comments to find out where you got the comforter and shams. We all want to know. 💚

    I think covering that back paneling makes a huge difference. That was too many wood tones and patterns for such a small space.

    • @eileenlester4342

      Agreed!!! 💜

    • @sweetlady6059
      @sweetlady6059 2 роки тому +1

      Agree the white brightened things up and also the pillow grain of lines matched the direction of the pattern in the wall paper you put on so even different textures it still worked

    • @TamsynKent

      That wallpaper above the bed gives me a headache - I would have to cover it up with white or cream.

  • @JR-wt5pw
    @JR-wt5pw 2 роки тому +34

    It’s amazing how those relatively small changes affected the appearance of the bedroom!
    …and the tie-back for the curtain?? GENIUS!
    Great job and great video!

  • @jennyksslr
    @jennyksslr 2 роки тому +80

    You could use contact paper to cover the bottom of the tray. And also put double side velcro strip to hold the tray in place while traveling, but still removable. Oh and bet y'all will like the curtain better. Love the colors!

    • @nicholetteburris3925

  • @darlenedavis8690
    @darlenedavis8690 2 роки тому +43

    The wall paper behind the head of the bed looks good. I would suggest getting a mattress cover. it will protect the mattress and keep it looking new.

  • @rebeccam1027
    @rebeccam1027 2 роки тому +40

    Looks great! One recommendation: protective mattress cover is always a very good idea. Looks like you'll have a comfy trip on your new mattress!

    • @StaceyGemini
      @StaceyGemini 2 роки тому +4

  • @paris0551

    • @vanessagherardini2885

      Definitely. Saves your mattress from embedded dead skin and body oil. Bleh!

  • @christinetaylor3712

  • @rhonda8231
    @rhonda8231 2 роки тому +8

    That wallpaper really does make that space look bigger. Actually the curtain does as well, it doesn't look as heavy as the wood does. I really love your sheets and blanket, beautiful colors. Huge success!

  • @martacapriola1340
    @martacapriola1340 2 роки тому +8

    I told my husband while we were camping last weekend - when you’re at home, there’s always a running list at the back of your head of what you should be working on, so even when you try to relax those things are always haunting you. When you’re camping, there’s nothing to do - which is so beautiful. Happy travels!

  • @eavening4149
    @eavening4149 2 роки тому +82

    idea for Tom's feet hanging off: a padded/upholstered piece of wood attached with hinges that can fold up into use and down and away for walking around.

  • @wandarios1711
    @wandarios1711 2 роки тому +15

    At first I didn’t want you to cover the darker “wood”. However, after you did, I really like it as it does lighten up the area. About those bedside trays, why don’t you cover the inside of them with the same peel and stick wallpaper? I think that would look great. Looks great! Love the bedding! Where did you get the green cover? BLESSINGS!!!

  • @ellef4812
    @ellef4812 2 роки тому +22

    I love what ya did - I'm always for making a space brighter and more open! Love the idea of the curtain too. Looks great, Dawn! Tom, as always, you're awesome bc of your willingness to be open and listening to Dawn even though you probably got more of your way this time. 💕

  • @opaldurham4818
    @opaldurham4818 2 роки тому +13

    Like the curtain at the door way. That’s what we did in our camper. The sliding doors would not close properly. Looks really nice.

  • @lindaroyal8161
    @lindaroyal8161 2 роки тому +10

    I like the new bedding and the white wall does make it look more roomy.
    Suggestion: If the bubbles in the wall paper bother you, you can poke them with a pin and smooth the air out, may help a bet.

    I really like the minimal changes you've made, it makes a huge impact. I have taken a couple of doors off, even in my house, and replaced with a heavy weight curtain... and I love it that way. The sheet set is beautiful and elegant. I'm glad you didn't paint, I can't imagine it looking better and look at the time and energy you saved. Thank you both for the video.

  • @sallydansereau1270
    @sallydansereau1270 2 роки тому

    We LOVE camping. Our kids are grown and we now own a small campervan that is perfect for 2 people. We are just getting ready for a cross country road trip, and have been decluttering and rearranging things to fit into our small space. So glad I am practiced at decluttering thanks in part to channels like yours Dawn.

  • @heidefries1825
    @heidefries1825 2 роки тому +8

    The RV looks great! I have sheets and towels that are a different color/pattern than what I have in the house. It makes sorting the laundry easy to know where everything goes. One set per room avoids needing to fold!

    • @lesliedelmonico4730
      @lesliedelmonico4730 2 роки тому +1

      We do the same. Works great-wash/dry, put sheets right back on the camper bed and towels on the hooks and we’re ready to roll the next weekend. Most was “free”-I took duplicates (that I didn’t actually need anyway) from my own house as a decluttering project. Win-win 🥳

    Love it! I am with Tom I don't mind a dark bedroom it's for sleeping after all but I love the transformation. Just a thought but perhaps a rubber matting or something under those trays to stop them flying off when you're moving? I'm really enjoying all the new stuff you guys are up too :)

  • @kathybrannon8166
    @kathybrannon8166 2 роки тому

    We spend a lot of time at our place on a major river in Tennessee, and it's time to upgrade. We are in the process of looking for a newer 5th wheel to replace our current one. I am seeing SO many updated, remodeled campers in our search. I love them! I would really like to get one with white cabinets, lighter colors, and modern light fixtures. I don't know why more camper manufacturers aren't using the updated interiors.. I'd love to reno one, but my husband isn't on board with that idea after renovating our house twice over the past 20 years. Your quick renovations turned out great. Love the brightness of the bedroom area now. Great job!

    We also have an aftermarket mattress in our pre-owned trailer. It was so heavy we could barely lift up for storage access. My husband installed two lifts rated for 150 lbs. Works great. SUSPA Lift Supports 2 pkg was $21.98.
    Thought this info might help someone else.
    Besides camping, you two are my happy place!

  • @flightlessphoenix77
    @flightlessphoenix77 2 роки тому +2

    I love the way the camper bedroom looks now- definitely more personality and the curtain is a great solution.
    I've house-sat for a few times for friends and family while they were away to look after their pets and its always the most fun when they have chickens. I'm envious of whoever will be looking after yours while you go on your trip!

  • @DD-xf1yd

    @melissaesposito7858 2 роки тому

    I own and love those sheets, too! Someone recommended Target sheets for their extra depth because I was complaining about my fitted sheets always migrating up and off my mattress. After a week, I went back and bought a second set to be able to wrap the box spring in one, too. (Which also works out because my husband and I have separate flat sheets, so now we have two matching ones.)
    And I wound up reusing the bags they came in as mending project bags. :)

  • @jennylhenry78
    @jennylhenry78 2 роки тому +16

    Tips for your side trays!
    1. You could put some of the sticky wallpaper on the bottom of the tray and it match.
    2. And then you should put some velcro command strips underneath so that they don't slide around while you are driving.

We are now back into having a camping and we do it to get away from our responsibilities at home. You are so right about what you do have to manage. We don’t have a lot but we need to get away from it and relax. We love the city and state parks. Enjoy the new camper

    100% agree with Joe about the freedom a camper provides. It changes your mental load. I don't see the laundry that has to be done or lawn that needs work or toys to pick up. It's very freeing and allows you to focus on the here and now.

  • @lifewithlarsandsusie8315

    I agree with you for camping too. We love to get away from home and spend time in nature- it’s so relaxing! We really have become minimal for camping too- we’re even ditching the tent and hanging up a tarp! We take the side by side up into the National forest and it’s so peaceful

    I’m getting my trailer ready this weekend too! I live in my trailer during the summer so this weekend was all about de-winterizing and cleaning for next week’s move in.
    Since I move twice a year (winter rental to trailer in the spring and reverse in the fall) and the trailer is a small space, reducing my inventory and decluttering has been helpful/necessary. I love all the tips, tricks, and mindset video you share. I still have more work to do to reduce and organize my stuff but it’s getting better each season. I’ve even been sharing the knowledge I’ve learned with my trailer neighbours. Thanks, Julie-Muskoka Lakes, Ontario, Canada

    Hi Dawn and Tom - love your videos so much! Your new camper is great and I like how you improved minor little fixes but added such value and touches to the room!
    Your RV I am envious to want to go camping - I loved camping but never had anyone to go with nor have I had a vehicle! Every ten years I get a weeks worth (not enough for me) chance to get an invite to go camping and I loved it!

I’ve learned so much, have your wonderful book, and have binged all the videos. We’ve been married 53 years, 3 kids and 5 grandchildren and we have saved waaaaaaaay too much. It’s all somewhat organized, ☺️but still… too much. Thank you to you and Tom for such great content and a look into your life. 🥰 The changes in the camper are perfect! And the tie for the curtain? Icing on the cake!🤗

    We recently bought Beddy's bedding for our camper. It zips up and makes it super easy to make the bed. We are considering getting one for the bunk beds as well. :)

    It really does brighten up your space. Love the bed linens.

    I put removable paper on the inside back of my dark bookcases. I didn't know if it would help. WOW it worked. The darkness has been pushed out with the paper. I have bubbles also but the bubbles are covered by books. Nothing is square but it is what it is! Good luck.
