I describe my color co ordinating...As "Mish Mash" And last year had the interior of my tent described as looking like"A teenage boys bedroom".........

So I am out on any further discussion in this thread....

I do like Green though....Green tent...Green s/bag...Green campbed....Every thing else is "Mish Mash" though...If it does the job in it goes.......

Jelboy.

Guilty!! or I'm certainly trying to be. With have a royal with matching windbreak, plus matching Royal chairs, blow up sofa which we cover with a matching throw - and a bonus the dogs match too. We also have an Outwell Fusion 400 in Mocha, so our Royal stuff matches too - All is well with the world :)

Went as far as getting a matching windbreak for our mocha tent but thats where it ends. Bright red chairs, grey cupboard, blue kitchen unit, red stove, sleeping bags of various colours. Most of this we had before we went mocha hence the lack of coordination.

Dance before the storm and don't look back to where you've been.

If you can keep your head when all around you are losing theirs, you obviously haven't grasped the gravity of the situation.

I don't want it I just need it.

We bought our lovely folding camper in September last year (only managed 1 trip away before packing up for winter) Going away for Easter and I have been busily buying stuff to pimp her up co-ordinating bedding, cushions and even some nik-naks. So I guess you could say I'm firmly in the co-ordinating camp ware club.

Guilty as charged (and so glad I'm not the only one who does this). It started with the new tent (blue) and then my compulsion to purchase all manner of camping gear continued the blue theme. Tablecloth, storage unit, bunting, windbreak, tent carpet, bedroom picnic carpet, fleece blanket, cutlery and plates. My current chairs are green but since there's nothing technically wrong with them, the OH won't let me buy the lovely blue chairs I've had my eye on

We could never colour coordinate, everyone has different favourite colours and we all chose the colour we want. Couldn't care less what it looks like as long as everyone is happy

Mine is multicoloured burgundy throw, purple cushion, red coolbox, orange cooker stand, but is all tied together with a multicoloured rug with squares of each colour so looks bright and cheerful co-ordination 😄

I just like to make my tent colourful and homely, some of the stuff goes with the blue theme, while others don't. The big cat throw on our inflatable sofa we've had for years, kids used to have them on their beds at home before we had central heating, paw print blanket is Bailey's (obviously!) complete with cushions, and the rug on the floor I made when I found some lovely coloured wool in Poundstretcher, it has a silver thread in it too, which makes it a big more glamping-esq!!

Matching sleeping bags and throws in the bedroom!
