Camper Renovation: Before & After

I tell ya, I always have to have something going on in my life.  Being a SAHM you are busy but I'm always thinking of new "projects" to do around my house.  Right now, I have Vegas next week with Heidi, I'm planning my daughter's big no 1 birthday party, getting ready to plant all our flowers Mother's Day weekend around our house, planting our garden and most of all getting our 5th wheel around for our camping season.  We never make arrangements for Memorial weekend, as we never know if they will be done planting or not.  But, I'm counting on it this year.  We've had our 5th wheel for 4 years now, and if you know me I'm about sick of the same O' decorations.  We spend almost every waking weekend in our camper {down to the family lake}.  Being this year we have a fun one-year old,  thought it would be fun to dress it up tropical!  And to make it super special, I bought 75% of the decor at the dollar store!

This is what my living room looked like before:

And this is what it looks like now:

I added a sofa cover.  I didn't really want brown but white would not work out with a one-year old!! I had some paper lanterns from last year, and I made some tissue pom poms.  I also took down the curtains as much as I can....we never used them anyways!  I added some new pillows {green from Kohls}, and then on some I bought some fabric and covered my existing {black flip flops and orange polka dots}.

I ordered this cover from Etsy.  I love this fabric!

I got all these Hawaiian luau's, cute signs and the paper grass from the dollar store!


I also made this frame and painted the glass with chalkboard paint :-).  Can't wait to use it!

Maybe I will get more ambitious and do something different with the rest of the camper :-)
