I'm a red-blooded female but I dislike frou-frou.&nbsp; To each his or her own. <img src="/images/boards/smilies/smile.gif" class="emoticon bbc_img">
 
Love it, love it, love it!

Glad to know I'm not the only one out there who is thinking pink!
 
I've seen all sorts of tricked out interiors.&nbsp; Mostly a 1950's theme or a little Shabby Chic.&nbsp; I'm sure you can pick a theme and decorate your heart out.&nbsp; No sense in being "blah" about things.&nbsp;I'm going to use some of that paneling that looks like bead board and, if I can find some, paneling that looks like white brick&nbsp; to go behind the cooking area.<br><br>Here's my fave - it's the one that inspires me the most:<br><br><a href="http://rosevinecottagetwo.blogspot.com/2008/12/blog-post.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://rosevinecottagetwo.blogspot.com/2008/12/blog-post.html</a><br>This girl completely gutted hers and painted, new walls, new floors.&nbsp; May as well decorate while you're at it.<br><br>If you look at some of the pics in this Flickr group you'll find really cool red &amp; white floors.<br><a href="" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"></a><br><br>LOVE!

I love the decor and all the frou frou accessories - what I can't figure out is do those ladies pack/unpack all of that everytime they move their camper? &nbsp;If so, too much work for me - I'll keep looking for the perfect marriage of streamlined/decluttered and feminine&nbsp;<img src="/images/boards/smilies/smile.gif" class="emoticon bbc_img">
 
Sure is pretty. Takes my libido. I'll sleep outside tonight. <img src="/images/boards/smilies/wink.gif" border="0" align="absmiddle">
 
I am sooooo not a Girly girl! I prefer my surroundings almost Spartan....neat, clean, uncluttered. I would get claustrophobia in those rigs. I recognize the pics from Pinterest. Who has boards on Pinterest? I would love to see them. I will go find a link to my boards...I hope....

For you folks that like this stuff it's often on boards about Sisters On The Fly.

<br>I wondered about that! <img src="/images/boards/smilies/biggrin.gif" class="emoticon bbc_img">

Frou frou: decorative objects with a feminine flavor, I.e., lace, jewelry, ruffles, beads, fabrics that shine or sparkle.

The inside of my van is decorated in a gypsy motif with lots of frou frou. Black, red, purple, gold, silver, brightly colored scarves, ribbons, beads, feathers, a red and gold satin brocade bedspread. A sterling silver wind chime made from an antique sugar bowl and spoons that lightly jingle when in motion. A fake parrot attached to the upper side wall. Scented candles.

Oh, yeah. Definitely a chick van!

Thanks for sharing! Those are beautiful pictures and give me some good ideas, I love the lace and girlie things. <img src="/images/boards/smilies/smile.gif" class="emoticon bbc_img"><br><br>Tina
 
I like how the&nbsp;light colors make the interiors look much more clean and alive&nbsp;than normal to dark colored interiors.
 
CCG, this was not posted in the girls room. But I do peek there, also. <img src="/images/boards/smilies/wink.gif" border="0" align="absmiddle">
