When summer break arrives, many students are unsure how to spend their free time. Some teens find jobs, others go to camp, or take trips with their families.
But 14-year-old Ellie Yeater from West Virginia had a clear plan for her summer. She wanted to fulfill her dream of turning an old camper into a cool hangout spot for her and her friends.
And guess what? The final result is so amazing that this girl deserves all the praise in the world!
Making the inside look good was going to be a big task. All the furniture inside the camper was the same as it was in the 1970s and needed a complete makeover. Elli’s mom, Lori, said, “It needed a lot of work, a whole lot.”
Ellie was excited to start working on her dream project, so she began by cleaning and fixing the floors. Luckily, her dad and brother, who are really good at renovating, were there to support and guide her throughout the process.
Once Ellie cleaned the floors and fixed any damage, it was time to make the camper look pretty. The first thing she wanted to change was the color. She wanted it to reflect her own style, so she painted it with a bright and beautiful blue color called “mystic sea.”
Now, it was time to tackle the inside.
Ellie painted it a peachy color and accented it with aqua blue.
