A WOMAN has revealed she and her partner bought a battered and rusted caravan, but have since given it a mega makeover.
Lauren, a beauty fan and Cosmetic tattoo artist from the Gold Coast, Australia, explained that transforming the caravan was a long process, but now, it has been turned into a stunning luxury salon.
Posting on social media, Lauren gave a close-up look at the tatty caravan, before and after its overhaul.
Lauren explained: “Thanks to Covid my husband and I found ourselves out of work.
“So I convinced him to buy a 1978 Millard caravan and turn it into a beauty salon.
“We’ve had a few hiccups, but she’s almost done!”
In a follow-up clip, Lauren gave her followers a tour inside the finished caravan, which has since been given the ultimate glow up.
What was once a total shell, with rubbish everywhere, wires hanging from ceilings and at one point, no flooring, now looks totally brand new.
The caravan, known as Van Beaute, is now incredibly modern, with stylish grey flooring and clean white walls.
The decor inside is pink and white, with plants and candles adding a touch of glamour to the studio on walls.
