Its a good idea - I made calico covers for ours that fitted our first two caravans - it saved the upholstery when the kids were young. Now I just use cream Ikea throws which are quicker to wash and double up as blankets on beds. I think weight would be an issue for some people too and if you are selling them you may need to think about being fire retardant as you may need to conform to certain regulations

Hi Andi, are your gallery pictures of Agrid's cushions your handiwork? I like them very much, and also the idea from Ecocamping of using them as covers over the top of caravan's own covers (for dogs in our case).

I have no idea on what would be reasonable cost though, compared to other comapnies who provide this service - perhaps it should be based on your costs including labour. It guess it also depends on the quality of the materials used too. Does sound like a good idea though and i wish you luck in your venture. The new caravans do have very light colour schemes and i know with our 2 dogs they wouldn't stay that colour for long, so covers would be a good idea for us. I think they would also need to be machine washable.

Very interesting though.

I love the spots!
