Before-and-After Photos of Eddie

Who doesn't love a good before-and-after?  I mean really that's what we live and breath for, right?  When I was writing yesterday's post about Eddie-the-Airstream I hunted on their website for a picture to match the original "before" photo, but to no avail.  So I emailed Tiffany to see if I had missed it and she said they didn't have one taken from that angle.  A couple of days later what should appear in my email inbox, but a lovely set of before-and-after photos that I just had to share.  How sweet is that.  


So let me remind you of Eddie in all his 1970s glory.




And let me introduce you to the new spiffed-up Eddie - all painted and polished and made-over.



Some of the walls have been painted white, wood floor has been installed, and new cushions and blinds have been added.  There is also a new fridge, stove, sink/faucet, and  counter-top to up-grade the kitchen area.  


I love their trailer and think it would be such fun to travel like that.   What about you - anyone else have a burning desire to be footloose and fancy free travelling around and living in a trailer?

    I would love a vintage trailer and a bunch of girlfriends to go on a road trip with! I think it would be a trip of a lifetime! I would love to go with my family too for a trip across Canada!

    This is my 14 yr old son's dream. He wants a vintage trailer he can fix up and put in our backyard as either an apartment or a music studio. I guess he can travel with it after he finishes college. He dreams big. He would love these photos. They did an amazing job.

    How cool! It looks so chic now.

    I have an old trailer (not an airstream) and I've been toying with the idea of fixing it up, just as a sort of "playhouse".

    Eddie looks great! My mother in law just bought a trailer by one of our beautiful Ontario lakes for the summer so this gives me some inspiration if she wants help fixing it up. So exciting!

    Oh, I can so imagine doing this. Really, we need to all just pack up and go for a long exciting ride across the continent!

    I've never thought of making over an airstream before...but really, that's the only way I'd be able to own one. GREAT makeover! I love it! Thanks for commenting on my blog last week...I'm about to explore yours! Oh, and check back soon - I'll be putting up a tutorial on the glass etching soon thanks to your suggestion.
