    Love the new video!! Seriously though, hinges… always at the edge, and always in pairs. One at the top and one at the bottom. Never just one. Trust me, it’ll make your daily experiences much less frustrating. ❤

    ❤What a difference a little wallpaper makes! The yellow looks good with the Aqua Blue 😃 You could even add some Lavender color 💅and tie it together, they are made from the same color wheel….🎨 the pastels are always so soft and pretty 🤩 Looks great 👍🏻 🫶🏻 🫶🏻 I think all the “Vanlifer’s”……WE’RE keeping the Thrift Stores in business 😂😂. Just have fun with it….you can always CHANGE IT!😅

    The wallpaper looks fine. Not too fond of that color of yellow either but it’s such a small area maybe you can find some “oops” paint at Lowe’s that you like better. But the fact that you’re having fun with it is what counts!😊

    You DIY like I do 🙂. If the patchwork wallpaper bothers you, prop a throw pillow up in that corner.
    Also: try a mossy green to cover that yellow. It will complement the wallpaper and go nicely with your blue door.

    YaY an Amber video!! So happy! Hey on the wire that you hung your curtains with, if it's too thin, cut a piece twice as long as you need plus 6 inches or so. Find the middle and secure it to something that you can stand back from. Open your drill chuck and stuff the two ends inside and close it really tight. Then twist the wire with your drill.
    It will be much stronger and shouldn't sag. It was great to see your face! More videos please!💙

Not sure about the yellow. Perhaps doing some more turquoise in the kitchen area, tying in the entry door and box shelf? Just a thought! In any case, your video was a pleasant surprise.

    I'm with you Amber on the food items like making wraps with a rotisserie chicken, they go a long way, are cost-effective and delicious. You could get some precooked bacon too as you can eat it cold, add some tomato slices and make it a club wrap 🙂 Are you saving to maybe get a different Van in the future with less miles on it?

    I think you like colour. And I think it looks good having some coloured Accents in your van. It just brightens things up. The yellow looks nice with the aqua colour. If you wanted to tone it down you could add some white to that yellow paint to make it more of a pastel yellow but I think it looks good.❤

    She’s back again!! Nice job on the video and the home renovations. I’m with you on stuff being out of sight is less cluttered but it does help you (well, me) find things more quickly if you have them visible. I have a bunch of wire basket type containers on the walls for now. Maybe once I’m satisfied with where everything is located I’ll change them to small cupboards to hide stuff. The small wooden gift boxes with sliding lids you can get from craft departments make good tiny cupboards if you screw them to the wall. See you in the next one!👍🏻
