I am a lover of vintage campers and recently remodeled a 1965 Aristocrat LoLiner. I have a degree in Interior Design, and my dream is to one-day flip houses. Since I am not able to do that right now, I thought I would start out flipping trailers. I found this cute vintage LoLiner and fell in love with it. When I met up with the owner in person to buy it, he ended up being a guy I went to high school with! Small world. My goal was to keep as much of the original vintage materials as possible and go with a Mid-Century Modern theme. I painted the entire interior of the trailer white. I added white chevron tile to a couple ledges, a geometric wood backsplash to the kitchen area, and handmade pillows and curtains in mid-century fabrics. I purchased an outdoor solar shower and shower tent. I also added some wood-paneled walls, a flatscreen tv, and other mid-century decor.
I absolutely loved working on this trailer and bringing new life to it. I recently sold it to a nice couple from Utah who have already taken it on some adventures. We were all sad to see her go (Lola, the LoLiner), especially my daughter Lexa who pleaded with me not to sell the trailer. But I assured her that the trailer was going to a good home to make some people very happy and we would have another trailer soon to work on again. -Natalie Lovell, Visalia, California.
My 4 year old daughter, Lexa, kept me company most of the time I was working in the trailer and sang to me while I worked. My step-dad, Ruben, helped me out with all the complicated woodwork (fixing areas that had water damage) and painting the exterior in an updated retro design.
