Got the darker purple done on the lat by the dogs and on the bottom one in the kitchen side too.
Pink has been done on the electronics panel and the middle shelf front.
I got the dog lights in! Yay!
Just a strip of LED's stuck to the slat of the bed, which run off batteries coz why wire them in 😉
Excuse the nosey parker that is Letty. 🙈
I also got the fairy lights on the ceiling. They're stuck up with command hooks but the sticky was gone from the bits you stick on so it's grey double sided tape used instead.
It's verrrry far from perfect but the wood backing for the panel doesn't go up in a straight line to the curve. I think I stretched a tile, hence the wobbly "grout" up the middle.
And I ruined my stitching scissors 😭 coz the big one I have was too big. I'd no Stanley blade, Mr F has them in his van 😖
But it'll do. The edges can be fettled (😁) to fit when I get the blade.
I spent a more normal night in my van last night. We're speaking again & the dogs were with me so it wasn't eerily quiet.It's chaos in there at the moment, with stuff from the Bongo (😡) & stuff from Mr F's van but I'll get it sorted out into proper places & get it decorated.
Following on from this thread (https://mastodon.ie/@Cbfoley/111415102882375639), it's now as finished as it'll get in terms of building. I will update that thread eventually 🙈
Meet DAISY 🥰

Attached: 3 images SO! The base van is a 2010 Renault Trafic L2H1 dci115. It's an import we think - from Northern Ireland. It's got alloys, fully colour coded bumpers & panels on the outside & Air Con so its UK spec but underneath it, it doesn't seem as wrecked from salty roads in winters as most others, hence guessing it was an NI van, VRT'd then for Ireland later in it's life. We can see the shadow of previous graphics on the bonnet which says "Snug". #NewVanWhoDis #VanBuild6 #VanLife #VanLifeReality
