Airstream remodel with custom couch
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 18 сен 2024
- It was time to make some changes to the main "living room" of the Airstream. The big change we made was to remove the pull-out sofa-bed and replace it with custom couch, actually bench seating with storage. By removing the sofa and starting from scratch, we were able to also reorganize all of the solar power electronics (solar charger, converter, inverter) and six Battleborn batteries that were underneath the sofa, into a more compact arrangement. After we peeled away the original mouse fur away from the walls, we decided to replace the aluminum that was underneath.

So glad to see update from you all! The changes look great and seems like you all are doing great as well!
I really like the wood wall covering.
Isn’t it cool! It’s called Stikwood.
Always happy to see your smiling faces and get updates.
Glad you’re back on the tube! We missed you all! Love the renovation! Congrats to both of you on your newly acquired skills! Never stop learning.
Learning new skills everyday! 😄
We’ve missed y’all! More videos please! Your Airstream looks fantastic!!!! ♥️
Yes, YOU are RUclipsrs! 😉. Nice to see you back. The Airstream looks great. And all that pretty blonde hair 👱♀️! Probably a good time for a trim! 🥰.
🥰 Thanks for being here Jolene.

Thank you Lisa! So glad you enjoy. ☺️
Projects are very educational and you learn new skills that will help you and your family with future projects. It is also a great way to model that hard work comes with rewards.
Yes, IMO, you are in the RUclips club! Your videos are well done and fun/informative to watch!
Thanks! 😃
Yup. You are a RUclipsr……and your content is great! Keep at it
Awww thanks Christine! 🥰
Well done both of you, learning new skills is wonderful and such great assets.
Your renovations look terrific, congrats.
Upgrades look great guys, so good to see a new video from your family🤗
Thanks for posting a video for us. I’m sure it’s very hard with three little kids to look after at the same time. I had three little kids so I can’t imagine being able to do something like this. Good job and I love Linden‘s haircut.
Love your renovations! Can’t wait to see what happens next!
I really enjoy your videos and always look forward to viewing them. Keep up the good work. Please continue your family journey as we ride along with you.
Thanks Phyllis! 💙❤️💚

Loving your upgrades
You did great on y-tube!!!! Loved your work and your style and your honesty!!! Can’t wait to see more!!!
Great job on all the changes!
Great ideas for storage. Keep posting as we love to watch your kids grow.
absolutely love your videos, the airstream looks awesome, good job!
Glad you like them! Thank you!
I'm excited to see all the improvements in your airstream! Everything you've done is wonderful. Great job to both of you! I enjoy seeing the girls growing up, as you share your experiences. Can't wait until you hit the road again. Blessings to all of you.
Thank you so much! Thanks for being with us on our adventures! 💙❤️💚
I am so glad you filmed all of this. It’s great to see your family and how you are thriving. Can’t wait to see the Airstream Reno! I admire you for taking the time to vlog, edit and publish with your precious family.
Thank you Terry that is so nice to say 🥰
Can't wait to see the new living room. It looks amazing so far. Have you thought about making the back bedroom into a bunk room/play area for the 3 girls? Their current bunk area could be converted to a desk/craft area, plus storage for adult clothing, etc., and Mom and Dad could have the living room as their sleeping area. Just a thought. I love the aluminum walls!
We were just talking about that very same idea of making the back into a triple bunk! Would be a big project but also our family probably won’t fit in the current layout for too much longer. 💙❤️💚
Love watching your videos, especially those precious "trees"! Wish I could do a smile face!!
Sure, you're youtubers. My daughter makes tiktoks and it's amazing to see how much work goes into those! And they're short!
Cool! I still haven’t figured out TikTok 😂 But I’d love to see hers!
Yaaaay, did you read my mind? I thought it would be the perfect Sunday if you would upload today just about 30 minutes ago!
OK, I finished watching. 🙂
Now that you made the covers for your sofa yourself, you know what it takes to make *exactly* fitting ones for paying customers out of whatever material they ask for. And multiple ones that are exactly the same.
And why custom made is pricey.
My hobby is sewing and I'm my harshest critic. I'm one of those who sew a seam in 4 seconds, don't like it, open it up again for an hour just to sew a new one in 5 seconds. 🤦🏻♀️
But it's my personal high standards, my hubby won't even see, what's wrong. 😂
And I don't sell my pieces. I want to be comfortable with the work I'm gifting to friends and family, colleagues etc.
I never make exactly the same piece twice.
OMG does anybody remember the McDonals commercial with the kid and the haircut? 😂😱🥳😳🤪
At least Linden is honest right away. Very charming!
I hope you are all healthy!
Greetings from Germany 👋👋
Sewing is pretty hard!! But very rewarding I must say. Also calming - after I get in the zone. And yes I see why custom upholstery costs so much! I don’t remember the McDonald’s commercial I don’t think… what happened? Thanks for being with us for our adventures 🥰

I can't find the commercial anywhere. 🙄
What I remember:
It showed a mom and a daughter. The daughter asked, when they are fiiinally going to MD. The mom said: first we go to the hairdresser, then to MD.
Next you see the girl with a horrible hairdo and scissors in her hand: We can go NOW! she says.
This commercial brought trouble into my country, a lot of parent were not amused!
A friend of mine took her daughter (with a self-made haircut 🤦🏻♀️) to MD and said to the manager: this should be worth a free kids meal! (She was sooo mad).
Michelle, it was so great to meet you last night at the campfire! I didn’t realize you guys were on RUclips, but I saw you in the reunion post, so I had to pop over and check out your channel. Great video!
So glad you're back! Love the changes. We're looking for a fridge what did you use?
It’s by Dometic.
Dometic DMC4101. It's their new/only full-size 12V fridge. For what it's worth, our first unit stopped working after 3 months, but they did at least send a full replacement under warranty.
Hoping ro find a frostfree model.
Thank you for the info.
You should consider locks for love next time you have that much hair. Our youngest grandson did not get his 1st haircut until he was 4 1/2 years old and he did that. Funny how dramatic that is for some kids.
That’s a great idea; I’ll look into it!
Yes. You are a RUclipsr. 😂 Especially if you have monetized your channel. Please tell me you have done that. 😉
We have actually never monetized our channel. We’d rather folks are able to watch our videos without any ads. We do have a Patreon though.
I know how much time and energy it take to create like you do. And with a family 😅 Some folks do both monetizing and Patreon. I don’t think it’s selfish or unkind of you to get paid for your hard work through YT, even if it means a few commercials for your audience. I’m not sure how much time one of your videos takes, but most of mine are at least 40 hours of recording/editing. I have two YT channels but stopped creating content because it was too hard to squeeze it in with our other family priorities. Then YT changed some monetizing rules so one hit wonders couldn’t cash in anymore. Pretty sure you qualify though. That’s just my personal journey and opinions. This can be, and is a primary source of income for many folks who create regular content. I can appreciate if that’s not a huge motivator for your family though. I do enjoy your content. We are renovating a 71 Airstream right now. No video documenting for me… just going to get the renovation done. I’m always hunting this platform for other Airstream stories. Have fun!
It’s amazing how much work renovating an Airstream can be all by itself. And then trying to film and document the renovation process on top of it felt like it was just too much and would slow the work down. I’m always impressed by those who can manage both.
@@ThreeLittleTrees I am as well.
