Smile Show your stuff!

I am currently deciding how I want to finish the interior of my AS. Floors, wall, ect. I did a search and know that there are scattered discussions about finishing but how about a central post of your decorating designs with pictures?

I'd love to see some shots of everyone interiors!

I did oak pergo floors

I replace ugly carpet with oak pergo, replaced the folding table with an oak veneer one I made myself, replaced the counter and put in a nicer faucet set complete with sprayer and soap dispenser.

This is the floor we put in our 75 Argosy, it is an Armstrong floor imported from Spain. It is on sale now at Lowes.

We're into maintaining vintage but wanted rid of carpet in a trailer. Just finished last weekend.

Forgot this one - this went in this weekend. For the longest time I couldn't figure out why there was a plant hook in the ceiling. Then the light went off (pun intended) a swag lamp from the 70's. Looks like a home remodeling gaudy reject to the camper to me.

Juel,

Lovely and rich colors you used for your interior. Puts my trailer to shame!

That's a beautiful floor, Marvin and Annie! Is it ceramic tile or linoleum-type stuff?

Being an antique dealer by trade I have to love the retro themes.

Juel - I really like the "juel" - tones that you used. They are so rich looking.

marvin and Annie - I will have to go check that flooring at Lowe's...

Has anyone used cork? And if so, where did you get yours?

If you type cork floor into the search feature, a lot of information comes up. It's been discussed frequently and I think I recall several people have installed it. I specify cork frequently in my residential projects, but prefer cork tile or sheet goods vs. the cork laminate. Laminates are most often glued to a MDF backing. MDF does not fare well with moisture. Once wet it swells and distorts at the joints. If you live in a dry climate, or are super careful about wet shoes and clothes in the trailer, it may not be an issue for you. But here on the Canadian West coast, with two Labrador Retrievers, I'm afraid that laminates won't last a season.
