Judy in Texas 150 Posted August 28, 2011 Report Share Posted August 28, 2011 The project for this summer has been to replace the fading flower stickers on the camper with vinyl ones plus adding the Musket Mickey that Auburn Jen made. Here are some pictures:The side of the camper with flowers, a bumble bee, and lady bugs on the back storage compartment door. Musket Mickey is on the lower half of the door (note how the swish that came on the camper now looks like it is shooting out of the musket). A window box hangs from the middle of the door. Yellow flowers grow in a pot to the right of the door. Added the saying "Not all who wander are lost" to the back of the camper. After much consideration on what to add to it... the camper being floated aloft by lots of balloons ala "Up". Flowers on the driver's sideSource of supplies: The flowers and plain sheets of vinyl were purchased from http://www.hippymotors.co.uk/.Musket Micket was purchased from AuburnJen.

Judy in Texas 150 Posted August 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2011 Thanks guys! It's been a fun project. I think it also makes the camper a bit less steal-able. :popo: Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Judy in Texas 150 Posted September 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2011 Had some leftover vinyl and flowers and couldn't let them go to waste. I needed a new tire cover because the original one was rotting. Hippy Motors says the vinyl will adhere just fine to the tire cover. I bought a new tire cover for $16 and decorated it:The vinyl will adhere to fabric also although I wouldn't want to wash it. I was having trouble finding a bike helmet that would fit, not cost an arm and a leg, and not look like a racing helmet. I found one in the sale bin but I didn't want to go around with Hanna Montana on the back of my head. More uses for stickers:I also added some to my Fort Fiend sign:The cat better keep moving or he'll end up with stickers all over, too! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PureTcrazy...rita 380 Posted September 5, 2011 Report Share Posted September 5, 2011 I love the sign! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Roberta 42 Posted September 6, 2011 Report Share Posted September 6, 2011 Incredible, amazing, super creative ..... I LOVE it!!! I'm really jealous. I'm currently trying to personalize the exterior of my camper and so far I have thought of absolutely nothing original. I planned on adding a decal to a plain tire cover, but would never attempt to cut my own. It's great to see how Musket Mickey looks good with the bright colors. That has been a hold up for me worrying about clashing. Thanks for the inspiration. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
polkadotsuitcase 12 Posted September 6, 2011 Report Share Posted September 6, 2011 Adorable and so creative! I love the saying, and the flower box, and...oh, heck, I love all of it. (And to think, I thought I was adding flair to our camper when I used purple duct tape to hold the stinky slinky bumper tube closed. I guess I have some more thinking to do, lol.)

MLM5.. aka Judy 97 Posted September 6, 2011 Report Share Posted September 6, 2011 beautiful work!! What are you cutting the vinyl with? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Judy in Texas 150 Posted September 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2011 beautiful work!! What are you cutting the vinyl with?I ordered the flowers, the stems, leaves and lettering from Hippy Motors. I ordered the plain vinyl from them and from www.Craftvinyl.com. The vinyl is fairly thin and backed with paper. You peel the paper off, wet the vinyl, and put it where you want it. Wetting it first allows you some "wiggle room" because you can reposition it. If you put it on dry, it stays where it is put. Here is a picture:The pink is flowers, one sheet of green is stems, the other green is plain that I've cut some pieces out of, and the red and black are ladybug pieces. It is the thickness of two pieces of paper and very cut-able with a standard pair of scissors. Hippy Motors just announced a USA outlet. Here is their website: www.hippymotorsusa.comYou pick the designs you want and tell them what colors you want. It's quite easy.Auburn Jen might have sheets of vinyl she'd be willing to sell.

HIppyMotorsUSA 0 Posted September 10, 2011 Report Share Posted September 10, 2011 Judy, you camper looks amazing! I always love to see a finished product after we send out decals! We also have a camper, that also happens to be my daily driver during the summer, a 1987 Volkswagen Vanagon. We decided to to purchase a complete car kit and decorated our bus with the Smurf makeover. $150.00 plus we bought a few large flowers that our kids really liked! We belong to a camping club, and often donate to different campout for the raffles, we would gladly do the same for Fort Fiends raffles. please drop us a line at [email protected] to see how we can help! Love your camper! keep up the great work! Jason www.HippyMotorsUSA.com Quote Link to post Share on other sites
