Great idea! She could also be an Amazon affiliate and have a page showing what she uses and she would earn commissions on those links when someone buys something, if she uses Amazon.
@NewJerseyOutdoorAdventures, Patrick, thank you so much interviewing me and touring my van! It was such a pleasure to meet you and to be able to share my build with your audience. I hope it's helpful to future minivan camper builders ☺️
Your van is the prettiest I have seen. I like your use of fabric to make it homey and cohesive. I have a Sienna and had to take out seats and have a floor built to go over the ugly bulky seat trolleys, but now I’m finally at the fun stage of putting up curtains and home made quilted throw pillows. So sorry about your pup. I have two fur kids who are nine and seven.They fill my life with love and whimsy. Thankyou for sharing your build. Beautiful job!
Thanks so much! Yes fabric is such a great way to tie things together and it's light so doesn't add much weight to the build. Thank you for the condolences for my fur baby and happy to hear your two little ones are bringing you pleasure. Yay for you getting to the fun decorating stage! Enjoy ☺️
@karlalawrence8847 - brava 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Your no-build van is stylish, clever & cozy! The gutter guards & computer fan is genius! I especially like your all electric/no fuel approach 🐌
Enjoyed your set up! 👌 I don't go on trips in my mid size suv but I do spend quite some time at a nearby park with a large lake. I have a kitchen, a stove, a table, a tablet, a beach chair, even a place inside to lounge. One thing I'd like to comment on is van life cooking. I get it people cook inside, but most bring out the butane stove in the elements where any kind of wind blows out the flame. Wind protectors don't do much because winds can come from any direction. What I have is small metal box with a cute little door and a shelf inside. It's about 3 ft. high and fits perfectly in the back where I have handy access to it when I lift my hatchback. I never have to take my stove out of my "kitchen". I can cook in basically any kind of weather no problem. I simply back up suv near some shady trees and cook stealth like because people walking in front can't see what I'm really up, though the banging of pots and pans, and it smelling like a restaurant gives me away to the observant kind of passerby. When I do get a friendly comment I invite them around to see something they weren't expecting! And I'm glad to say it's all good reactions. So keep on keeping on because I know you are enjoying it!
I would never have thought of the oil drain pan as a sink--brilliant! Hats off to Carla for an ingenious, attainable (both from a financial and DIY standpoint), and aesthetically pleasing build! Thank you for sharing it with us!
That is brilliant. I was so confused at first because it looked nothing like what you would expect a sink to look like and an oil drain pan is not something the average person sees regularly. But it's a simple, space saving idea.
I agree, alot of us don’t have $100k for a van then another $70-$250k laying around for a big custom rig. An in that case might as well just buy a RV instead of waiting. I love how Patrick’s video’s touch on the more realist way or approach. An learning new ideas or DYI projects to make self made rigs more enjoyable & more affordable. The hardest point was figuring a shower system. Then I gave up & just got a gym membership. lol Making a van relaxing & cozy, but still have the necessity’s when camping or stealth camping. Another gem video. Learning from each other is a beautiful gift.

The words you commented on this video is so amazing, and i think is nice to make new friends in other to know more difference around the world. Am Nikolas Thomas from Brooklyn New York, where are you from if i may ask?
She made that look absolutely adorable inside! It’s like a dollhouse and so cozy!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ I just love her personality, too! She seems like a true sweetheart.
Very nice no-build build. Those gutter guards are ingenious as well as the oil drain pan. What an amazing person Carla is and her van is too. She has everything in there, so it could be a fulltime home if she wanted. (It's van tours like this that excite me, when people use their creativity to make a functional and beautiful space.)
So true! I can't afford a hundred thousand dollar pre- built, and sometimes even getting a commercial van and DIYing it can be very pricey, so this kind of no- build van is perfect for many of us! And I love her ingenuity and crafty feminine touches...❤
@@yvettescheiman4991 Not to mention mini-vans can slide under the radar more than a full sized van when boondocking on the street or parking garage, etc.
The best no-build conversion...makes me wanna find a van, lol. Carla is a genius! I am going to use some of her ideas. Amazing and thank you for sharing, Carla!
Nice “no build” build. It looks cozy and functional. I like the fact that she put into thought that the van some day will no longer be able to run and drive. And not worth doing any expensive repairs. You just pull everything out in like 5, 10 or 15 minutes or how long it may take pretty easy I take and install it in a new van. Plus it’s pretty stealthy
THAT's the part that really got me. I mean the other parts of the van are great but the thinking ahead and not putting the money into building a new conversion is something to think about.
Pretty cool, especially for a person with no construction experience like myself! No need to spend a fortune and it's got to be easier to stealth camp because it doesn't look like a camper van. Nice!❤
I'm so sorry you lost your fur baby. Your van looks so pretty and also very workable! What a fabulous idea for getting ventilation in the van using gutter guards! So many great ideas in this stelth van!!
Patrick, thank you for sharing Carla's layout and van setup. I hadn't considered a minivan in my plans, but I really like Carla's. The decorative scheme is amazing. Stay safe and TFS.

❤Karla is very creative. We love all of the personal touches. What a great way to get out there and enjoy life without spending a fortune or getting started if you’re waiting on your conversion to be completed. Way to go Karla 😊
One of the coolest no build van creations I have seen. How much she has in there and it doesn’t look untidy and over stuffed. I love all the little hacks like sink made from from a auto oil drain pan and the ventilation vents on the windows. Will follow her on IG
That is a really nice no build van. She really did a fantastic job of using her space to fit everything and still be very comfortable. I agree with another comment about her writing an e-book, it’s something I’d purchase to help me in my small travel trailer.

Very nice, practical design. Well thought out in terms of what items you really need (some people try to build the Taj Mahal or a mini mansion with ridiculously expensive materials). You have created a comfortable environ coupled with a maximization of your space.
Patrick, thanks for bringing Karla to us, she's so resourceful and seems like a cool, easygoing person to know. I hope she is still on the road and enjoying safe travels 👍🏼
This woman is a genius. She created the perfect "no build". Her design is simple yet accounts for every need with perfection. Thank you for this incredible video. It is truly comforting to know if I have to live out of a vehicle I can create a viable temporary conversion without spending an inordinate amount of time or money. ❤

The art works takes an exceptional no build to the next level. So comfy/cozy. It was sad to hear about her fur baby but bonus points for Ray Romano voicing the video 😂
WOW, KARLA !!! This is brilliantly creative ! Clever & cozy ! Organized & functional .... and I don't usually care too much for the color GRAY, but this is oh-so-PRETTY, FEMININE, AIRY & SOPHISICATED the way you've incorporated it into your design, KARLA....I REALLY LIKE IT, ALOT !!! And all that you've shown us !!! *🌸*💕*🌸* (... think I'll watch this video again 🤩)
Genius. The gutterguard ventilation is brilliant! So is the oil pan/sink/gray water-collection kitchen set-up. So economical and flexible and balanced! ❤

I like her comment that she built her van so that when her van needed replacing she can just move everything out and into a new van…..that is brilliant! Smart thinking for sure…..thanks for sharing!
AMAZING!!!!! I love love this build. She did a fantastic job. I love all her ideas and personal touches. Thank you so much for the tour. GREAT JOB!!!! 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
This was an absolutely beautiful no-build! The exterior is stealthy while the interior looks cutesy yet everything is practical and functional. Great job Karla! It makes us non-construction folks feel this is attainable! 😊 As someone else suggested: definitely write that how-to manual!
I have been watching this vid for hours…. It is so inspiring to me. Her information is so relatable and easy to follow. Love the colour inside “white and grey”
I have used gutter guards for ventilation and they work pretty well. Mine are whites they are pretty obvious, but I used them in a campground. I really like the oil pan sink idea.
I bought brown ones. White was the other option at my stores here. I’ll spray paint it black like she did too. I figured if they get scratched the brown will be less noticeable than white.

You have excellent taste in “home goods” - window fabrics, bed linens, pillows, and other various fabric items for storage. Your tiny home looks very welcoming!
Fell in love with tiny living from tiny homes.....which for me includes vanlife. To me it means minimalism.....so THIS is my favorite. All the others I've seen...seem claustrophobic to me....alot of stuff, not too much(for that person) but still alot. This is spacious and still has everything she needs and WANTS. I love it. At my age I want standing height...so maybe a uhaul type van or whatever, but this is a great (if not the best)1st time intro to vanlife. Period.....❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Tiny homes were my gateway too! Yes, space is key for me so that factored a lot into my design. It's good you know you'd need standing height, and I think you could still apply some of the same principles to your space. It's all about building something based on what's most important to you. I'm so glad you enjoyed my little build, thank you!! :)
I love her window idea. The biggest thing I found was its hard without cutting into a van to have that cross breeze on those super hot days & nights. Also love that sink idea.
Hi Patrick, what a great interview. I love the simplicity and creativity that Karla has added in her no build. I want to copy everything she shared with us. Thank you both!!!

Patrick, Thank you for sharing the van tour of Karla’s ( Creategrowjoy) her van is beautiful and her ideas are genius 💗
Very nice tidy no build car camper best I've seen. Good job, and great travels.😊
Awww she doesn’t have a RUclips?
She could produce an e-book on her plan and organization and make some extra money...I'd buy it! Jane
Absolutely
This is great!! Very simple and reproducible. I hope to use some of these ideas. Though I can’t sew:(
I would buy it too Karla!
Yes very efficient thot of everything . Im hooked on the omidea of another
space like an outside tent myself

Sinks a great idea. Just bought one for myself. Thanks so much for the recommendation.
Two big pros for a no-build is A) you can make changes easily and B) you can fix everything yourself. Nice job and I love Carla’s hacks. Peace - John
Exactly, John
Thats the best way to go!!!
Way to go, Carla! The sink, the gutter guard for the window....great build.
Thanks Linda
What a terrific conversion! Thank you for posting a more realistic one versus the $100k+ luxury rigs.
You bet!

It looks amazing and everything has its place and it doesn't look crowded.

Hello, hope this year brings great Joy, Love, Peace and Happiness to you and your family? The words you commented on this video is so amazing, and i think is nice to make new friends in other to know more difference around the world. Am Nikolas Thomas from Brooklyn New York, where are you from if i may ask?
You have excellent taste in “home goods” - window fabrics, bed linens, pillows, and other various fabric items for storage. Your tiny home looks very welcoming!
Thanks so much!
I love it! Everything she has done is beautiful. 😂
Thank you for the feedback
A great no-build. Carla is a very enthusiastic and a pleasure. Thanks for showing us your van.
Our pleasure!
Thanks so much!
What a lovely lady and really impressed with the thought she has put into the van.
So happy to meet her
one of the best ive seen...people wanna actually see an entire tour of a mini van build...and close up...very well put together...gg cinti ohio...🙂🤗🤗🤗
Thank you!
Fell in love with tiny living from tiny homes.....which for me includes vanlife. To me it means minimalism.....so THIS is my favorite. All the others I've seen...seem claustrophobic to me....alot of stuff, not too much(for that person) but still alot. This is spacious and still has everything she needs and WANTS. I love it. At my age I want standing height...so maybe a uhaul type van or whatever, but this is a great (if not the best)1st time intro to vanlife. Period.....❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
So happy you found this
Tiny homes were my gateway too! Yes, space is key for me so that factored a lot into my design. It's good you know you'd need standing height, and I think you could still apply some of the same principles to your space. It's all about building something based on what's most important to you. I'm so glad you enjoyed my little build, thank you!! :)
Fabulous! The sink and window fan…best ideas ever! Go girl! Thanks for sharing your genius.
Thanks so much! 😊
What a beautiful no-build home. You did a great tour. Lovely lady!
Thank you so much!
Carla has some great hacks! Love her esthetic as well. Really practical
Greta to hear Barbara
I love her window idea. The biggest thing I found was its hard without cutting into a van to have that cross breeze on those super hot days & nights.
Also love that sink idea.
Glad you liked it
the window gutter guard/fan is brilliant! Thanks for sharing!🚐👏
You bet!
Hi Patrick, what a great interview. I love the simplicity and creativity that Karla has added in her no build. I want to copy everything she shared with us. Thank you both!!!
Please do!
Thank you!
I loved the desk tucked under mattress. Great build.
So many clever ideas
Thank you for going into detail on the window fan, I was wondering about it on the first pass. Beautiful decor and setup in her van
Glad it was helpful!
Very pretty! Even though she doesn’t live in it she could if she ever needed to.
Thanks Paula
Super creative build and really looks cozy with all the essentials- great job Carla!
Thanks so much! 😊
She's genius with so many different items than other vans. Stay safe and have fun on the road, Karla!
Appreciate the support
