As you are driving out here in the sticks, just about everyone has a camper trailer... and a good most of them are trash... or so you'd think. Braden and I discovered that there is treasure to be found under the trash! We have started a little hobby/business of "trailer revival." We take old 1960's trailers that have lost their appeal and are just dying space taker uppers and bring them back to life! Here are some before and afters of a few that we have done! I'm still an amateur at before and afters so some are missing... sorry you won't get the full effect. :(
All our trailers are called Stella. Last summer we did Stella 1. I didn't take any before's, but here are the afters!
MEET STELLA 2!

I have one that was SO cute that I sold so fast I totally forgot to take pictures! Sad :( That was Stella 5. We are currently working on Stella 6! She's going to be amazing!
Comment time! Do you like the retro 50's style or do you like the 2 teal ones better?
In case you're wondering what work we do, here is a list. I may have overlooked a few things but off the top of my head, here's what we do.
Exterior: Repair or replace old damaged metal, smooth out dents where possible, replace tires if needed, de-rust tongue and bumper, polish any chrome, paint wheels if needed, paint exterior white, design and paint decal, paint tongue and bumper, repair and paint slide step, seal roof and repair if needed, replace windows if needed, test and repair towing lights.
Interior: Remove and replace any water damaged wood and or insulation, remove and sand cabinet doors, paint interior walls, paint cabinet doors accent, remove old floors and lay new floors, sew new fabric covers for cushions that are removable covers for easy cleaning, remove old curtains and sew curtains (sometimes), clean fridge and oven, test and repair all appliance and tanks if needed, test all lights and outlets and replace if needed, replace toilet if needed - deep clean toilet if it still works,
If you have a trailer that needs a revival, let us know! We can do special order colors/patterns if you want! Takes 1-2 weeks and costs will vary.
Or if you just want to buy one with special ordered interior style, let
me know too! They are so fun to do and the outcome is always amazing!
