Minty Van is getting a facelift!

Post by dirtygertie »

And I'm so excited!!! :D

De-rusted, painted, de-girlyfied on the outside (bloke says no flowers or eyelashes...pah! :evil: ) and completely overhauled interior (which can be as girly as I like 8) )

Work has started, paint has been purchased and all the curtains have been made. We're on a really tight schedule, but the plan is to have everything finished by the end of july. New colour, same name :mrgreen:

:shady

We're in the stickiest situation since Sticky the Stick Insect got stuck on a sticky bun. -hmmmmm

No patrick, VW L511, birch green; I have the opportunity to be creative, I love creativity :ok

The way I look at it is this, if you were decorating the living room you wouldn't put the same wallpaper up - you won't recognise us at Busfest :wink:

Here you go Mark, its now primed ready for painting

Yeah I am getting this female re-decoration thing at the moment. My daughter Jo and my ex are planning a new colour for my lounge at the moment. I'm leaving the colour to them. They know best I guess but I will miss that minty colour! So what are you gonna call the van now? Greeny doesn't sound right to me.
