Future Plans...


There has been no physical progress on Louise. No dough...No go. So we have been doing some planning on the interior design of the trailer... 


This is the plan as of right now. We have the yellow and gold flecked counter tops in the trailer which we really like. We plan to add color to the exterior of the trailer also. That color has not been decided yet. I am going to recover the dinette and rear bed in vinyl. Hopefully the marine grade vinyl will stand up to some abuse by a young child. It should be really easy to wipe down and clean.

I threw together a quick sketch to see how the colors that we have chosen for the vinyl would look. My plan is to do a tuck and roll on the benches. I have always liked that in old cars and I think it would look cool on the dinette. We chose Morbern Seabrook for the vinyl. The colors being Marigold and D Gel White. They make a welting in those colors so that makes my life a lot easier. We may be starting work on the dinette benches and rear bed this winter. I know it sounds silly to do that when there will not be much work done to the trailer by that point. Although I can work on the upholstery in the basement with no concern for the weather.

We also selected Boomerang Beat in Jade as the curtain fabric. It has some off white and yellow in it so I think it will go nicely with the upholstery. We will keep you posted on the progress of this project when actual progress has been made!
