The DIY fan confirmed that she used bargain buys from Amazon, B&Q, Ikea, Shein and H&M Home to transform the caravan from drab to fab. 

Sarah previously confirmed that it took her and her husband five to six weeks to do the bulk of the work and when they ripped out the insides, they noticed that the caravan had water damage.

Now, the tiny home on wheels has been given a modern makeover, complete with black details, dalmatian dot wall stickers, fake foliage headboard and some cool prints, which really make this space pop. 

With panel-style wall details and herringbone flooring, it’s no surprise that social media users were left impressed.

Sarah also detailed the costs for her DIY project.

She confirmed that she forked out £4,200 for the 2004 caravan and then spent £390 on paint, £145 on bathroom costs, £185 on kitchen costs and £183 on new mattresses, stickers and prints for the bunks.

She also spent £420 on the living area, including handles, lights, upholstery and flooring, as well as £295 for building supplies.

Not only this, but Sarah also splashed £820 on miscellaneous costs and £800 on decor and soft furnishings.

Sarah’s TikTok clip has clearly left many open-mouthed, as it has quickly amassed 60,800 views.

It has 1,981 likes, 32 comments, 306 saves and 527 shares. 

Social media users were stunned at the caravan’s overhaul and many were eager to express this in the comments.

One person said: “Wow this is amazing.”

Another added: “Beautiful.”

A third commented: “Now that is an extreme makeover. I love it.”
