Hi, I'm Verity,
For years, I've decorated my home with things I've made and created gifts for family and friends. They've always described me as crafty and been amazed by what I've made; however, I don’t agree.
Most of my gifts are low cost and easy, made with some basic skills so I started this channel not only to feed my craft habit (don’t tell my husband!) but to create instructional videos and tutorials to show you that you can create amazing things too.
I also own a van conversion which my husband and I created ourselves (and you can rent), so you'll see Athena pop in to say hi from time to time, along with our home in Hertfordshire which is undergoing its own major makeover!
From beautiful embroidery, macrame, crochet, woodwork to styling your home or tiny home, there’s space for every type of creation so come and create with me!

    Just checked a website first result for "sprinter van window covers." For the front (windshield, passenger, and driver window) set $450. Then $215 for the sliding door window and $215 for the window across it. With taxes and fees, that totals $900. I've never sewn before. For me to make them myself, it took: $37 reflectix $16 fabric (used mostly old thermal blackout curtains) $25 magnets $0 thread (gifted) $100 sewing machine =$178 And about 9 hours of labor (havent done magnets yet but guestimating). Valuing my time at $16 an hour (according to my current job), I spent $144 in labor, $178 in materials, for a total of $322. That's 1/3 of the cost, including labor and purchase of sewing machine Unless your time is valued at like $100/hr, or something where time it would take to do this costs more than it would to buy them for $900, THIS IS TOTALLY WORTH IT. So thanks!

    When you are sewing fabric onto backing or silver foil, important to use pins or tape to make sure you have neat finishes with no folds. It is time consuming but worthwhile for a neater finish.

      I've never sewn before and I just did it. Only took probably 6 hrs for 3 large and 2 small windows. And thats for a complete newbie trying to figure everything out. If you already know how to sew I bet they're definitely easy. Simple concept. Sew reflectix and fabric to each other. Sew lines for them to fold on for easy storage. Sew a black edging around. Sew on magnets.

    They look great. I made plain Reflectix shades with stick on magnetic strips for my Sprinter, and they are okay, but a bit of a pain at times, especially on the slider. Your method of using the magnets in pockets and sewing the fabric to the Reflectix looks so neat and makes them much easier to store too. Will be using that to upgrade my current plain shades to add fabric and proper magnets - thanks for the inspiration and instructions!

Added bonus they now fold nicely for storage. Will add a few more pics on Insta once the campervan comes back from the mechanics. Thanks again for your great video!!

      No I didn't, we have a curtain that pulls across the cab instead. It would work the same in principle but I think it would be better on some suckers instead of magnets.

    Mine are really large windows they sag so will need to spray glue on to hold fabric in place as sewing alone isn't enough what glue have people used or would you recommend ?

    • @CreateWithVerity
      @CreateWithVerity Před 11 měsíci

      I've heard that glue can melt apart as they're in the sun a lot. I'm sure they'd hold for a period, but some small stitches would hold them forever.

    Do they stop the condensation or help?

    • @CreateWithVerity
      @CreateWithVerity Před 11 měsíci

      They definitely keep the van warm and block out any additional heat when it's warm outside. Nothing stops the condensation sadly, but the reflectix doesn't allow them to get mouldy as a standard fabric would do!

  • @robertschulke1596
    @robertschulke1596 Před 2 lety

    Nice job! Consider having one side silver white cloth to reflect heat, and the other dark to improve privacy at night. Put the silver side out in the summer heat, and in when you’re running the heater. Soft batting will give an air gap between the Reflectix and the window for even better insulation.

    • @CreateWithVerity
      @CreateWithVerity Před 2 lety

      The reflectix has air bubbles within it so it’s quite a good insulator in itself, but yes a batting in between will increase the insulation even further. I’d leave the reflectix as the external material though. Turning it around depending on what you’re doing definitely works though!
