This looks fantastic, and is definitely food for thought. I hate the interior of our 1990 Swift Alouette, it's all brown and grubby. And the curtains are a very dull green and neither here nor there. Whilst I prefer a more Cath Kidston vintage look, these pics were inspiring!!!

Has anyone done anything similar? I would love to but I'm not sure if I'm brave enough...

Ohhh, in my excitement I've only just noticed it was a company who have done it for them.  

We'd *never* be able to afford to have it done, but love the idea of doing ours up on the cheap. It'd have to be!! Lol. x

It is pretty garish admittedly....

I think just the very fact that someone has done something completely different has set me off. I would love a caravan makeover! But I prefer this... myself.

I've been sitting and sighing over that pic ever since I discovered it.

I really don't like it one bit - its far too small a space for all that noise it would give me a headache.

I think they both look great, nice to have something a little bit different. Why not try add some colour to your van with bold colour accessories etc, you wouldn't need to go for a complete re-upholstry job!

You need to take your sunglasses.  I suppose there are a lot of other options that would be more relaxing to the eye.

Any one of those colour schemes would be OK - cramming all 27 of them into one van is just ....

i think its quite a good innovative idea as more people want to personalise and brighten up their caravans, just have to save the pennies
