This low-cost makeover gives a 2011 Crusader caravan a fresh, contemporary look.
The project
We purchased a 2011 Crusader caravan and just loved the floor space and layout, but sadly the decor was a bit tired.
On one trip we started thinking about giving her a new look … and that was it! We were off to Bunnings and Gracie the Glamavan was transformed!
The materials
- Dulux primer
- Porter's Paints Eggshell for cabinets and walls
- Dulux Suede Effect for splashbacks
- Dulux Metallic Effect for fridge
- Recycled floor panels
- New blinds.
Total cost: $2200
We absolutely love the result. All brushes and materials were from Bunnings in Clarkson, WA.
Primed and taped, ready for painting.
New flooring installed.
