    Soooo adorable. Love it. And the time with your dad and him making the awnings is priceless!

    I preferred the colors it originally had, but I appreciate what you’ve done. Looks much cleaner

      There is always that "one" in the comments. A compliment loaded with something negative and unnecessary. Kindness is free and easy to give. Try it.

    Absolutely love to see these old campers being renovated, I bought a 1981 Shasta about a year ago for $700 and have renovated it, it’s been frustrating and fun all at the same time!

    Brushing a quality oil base point is actually just as good . The thicker sheen makes it look brand new. Keep the retro stripes also.

    Honey is great. I have been binge watching both channels. It is such a pleasure just to know of you. When you mentioned the haters it broke my heart. First I thought they probably care about you being true to who you are and they love your charm and sweetness.
    Then I thought hmmm that is so selfish ..it is Your life. I appreciate seeing a young Christian women get excited to go to church. You are so caring and your parents and grandparents in heaven must be so proud of you. I am a gal also that can have a tea party, clean up and go outside and work on my 1909 house and get muddy in the garden. We are women and are multidimensional. I’m impressed with your work on honey and your house. Have you ever thought about merging your channels. If that is possible.
    Ps I love Christmas movies and in my 20’s I watched Home Alone so many times, I loved that house. I will be watching your favs! Thank you for just being you.🐝 ps love the baking, cooking , decorating, remodeling and love your dog, so precious.

    Your camper is cute!! I have to ask: did you replace the butyl tape? This needs to be replaced as a part of regular trailer maintenance every 7-10 years. I am asking because when you remove the windows, hatch covers, and j-rail to reinstall the butyl tape, you can bypass all of the detail masking. You also need butyl tape applied behind the awning brackets because the trailer skin has been pierced. After all that work you have done you don't want her leaking.

    Freaking adorable! Some people use their back bumper as storage for their outdoor rug (roll the rug up and put inside the bumper).

    I personally loved the 70's look honey originally had ,but I also really love it's new very sweet kinda almost 50's look it has. Your video has inspired me to someday redo the 80's camper I got from my parents. I will so be re watching these videos when I get around to that.

  • @dhart28
    @dhart28 Před 3 lety +3

    Your inventiveness and ingenuity makes me want to go out and buy an old camper to renovate. Well done. Even at $1000 (or $1200), I believe you got it at a good price.

  • @pdxeddie1111
    @pdxeddie1111 Před 9 měsíci

    I like seeing old things made new again it's good I don't know if I would have gone with the light color around the bottom because of road dirt and dust will make it look dingy but it looks cheery btw they made stuff a lot better back in the olden days so that's why it's still around.

    Your camper is adorable! You all did a great job on the paint, love the stripes and the awnings. Your dad did an amazing job on the awnings. I was wondering what paint you planned to use on the aluminum and now I know. I have a 27’ motorhome I would like to paint but have been very hesitant because I didn’t know the right paint to use. You have inspired me to get going on my RV again. Your trailer will be beautiful when finished. Great job!😁

    I saved this video for paint reference!
    Beautiful job!!!
