Here are a few pictures from our camping trip to Blythe Island, Georgia a couple
of weeks ago. It was the maiden voyage of our "Little Camper". Before I left , I made a few improvements. I didn't really have a bed just a platform consisting of the 2 bench seats and the plywood shown in the picture.
I purchased two large pieces of foam for the three pieces of wood and cut them to fit. By the way, an electric knife cut through the foam like a hot knife on a stick of butter. Easy Peasey. The hardest part was getting the measurement correct so I didn't make mistake on that expensive foam. Next I covered the foam covered planks with batting and denim material. Used my $1.00 sharp shooter shown in an earlier post to attach the fabric to the wood. Sadly, I was so eager to get loaded up forgot to take a picture of the completed project. The picture shown is actually the sofa bed mattress on top of the seats. But I think you get the idea.
This was our little home away from home.
I am going to try to change the look of my blog. My friend Kelly at http://simple-southern-surburbia.blogspot.com/ inspired me to make a change.
What a great idea you had. I would have just been scratching my head looking for a mattress to fit. The camping trip looks like so much fun! I love the look of your blog, especially that picture on top. It makes me want to go put on a sweater and romp in the leaves...Oh wait, it's 97 here today. Guess I'll just stare at your header again and wish.
