- VAN BUILD 06: DIY Window Covers & Insulation
After gutting and polishing the van interior (Van Build 01 & 02), insulating and installing my sub-floor and vinyl floor (Van Build 03 & 04), and most recently installing my maxxair fan (Van Build 05). This video I'll be DIYing some custom insulated window covers for my van windows are well as getting starting insulating the ceiling.

After living abroad in Barcelona, Spain for a year, moving back home to South Louisiana, getting a new job, quarantining through the pandemic and taking adventures while I can, I decided to purchase a van to build and renovate with the goal of traveling around the US van life style as a solo female traveler. This is completely new to me, I am super excited to see where this journey will take me, and I am definitely learning new things along the way.

Nice job!
Thanks!!
Love the google sheet
I live on google sheets haha
This is so cool Sarah🔥Thank you so much for finding and using my song 'Take Us Back' 😊🙏🏻 I'm going to make sure I let my parents know about your video as well as they are interested in vanlife.
No problem 😊 and awesome! Love it lol
❤
The point of the silver reflex is so the sunrays bounce off the surface. Now you are only using it as insulation which I believe you could have got at a lower cost. Nice job anyway.
Window covers look good Sarah!
Thanks girlie!
Hi Sarah, Very creative, that was a perfect fit ! Hope you had good weather finally. Thanks for sharing your time. Continued success ! Bye 👋🏽🙏🏽💛🇨🇱.
Thank you!
Good work Sarah, making the blinds foldable is genius 👌....coming along nicely 👍
Thanks so much! 😊
Window covers look good.The whole build is looking good.
Thank you!
Definitely saving this video for when I do my windows, awesome job
Thank you!!
Love your van build videos can’t wait to see finish product
Thank you and me neither!
That lint roller clip was so satisfying hahaha! Definitely binging the rest of your build playlist! (I have an E350 high roof!)
I was wondering- how’d you affix the wood to the upper wall? Just bolted to the metal framing?
Thanks for the content! There’s not much on E series vans! 🙏🏽
Edit: I see in video 10 that the wood is screwed up thru that lip of the original ceiling metal! Sweet! 👍🏽
LOL thank you so much! Hopefully I helped you figure out what to do or NOT to do! Sorry for the delay in reply but it seems like you got what you needed! LOL I considered bolting it to the metal framing, but did not!
I’ve been binge watching your videos pretty awesome. I love it.❤
Glad you like them!
Awesome work on those window covers. I failed miserably with mine. I still have to go back and redo them.
Thankfully though, I only have 3 to do.
I sprayed foam and painted over most of them. Just got the two on the side doors and the one behind the driver seat to do.
✌️
You "permanently" covered some of your windows?? I considered that, but was kind of scared to do so...
@@SaySarah if you got a sec. I’ll video call you on IG and show you.
Great jobs! Ideas!
Thank you! 😊
Hi Sarah im dave from the u.k to say its your first time van build you doing amazing job love just take your time do it how you like it as you go along you will get better just keep going love to see it when its finished and I bet you will feel proud.

So is the black fabric not counteracting the whole idea? It attracts A LOT heat 🙄
The windows are already black and tinted so the black of the covers aren’t visibly adding any additional black than what’s there to attract heat
Sarah how much was your van and Great window covers
Thank you and I think I paid $3500
🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩 ❤🧡💛 💚 💛🧡❤ 👍👍👍👍👍
