Making camper van curtains for under £10 

I just watched like 15 of these videos and this is the simplest and best explained. cheers.

Thank you for the great idea of using a tablecloth, so simple! Making curtains and seat covers for a converted transit van and am on my second tablecloth so far. I think it will be a lot cheaper than fabric. x

Hi Joel I used the same idea with the eyelets and wire works well. Here's a tip for condensation I found put cat litter in a sock and stitch or zip tie the top then put between the window and curtains, seemed to work for me

Great video and those curtains looks awesome! I've got a Doblo camper and it has black out film on the windows but I want curtains as well not just for additional privacy but also because without curtains it still feels a bit too much like sleeping in a car so curtains will hopefully give it a more camper van type feeling. Thanks for the tips, will come in handy. All the best, Dan

Great video, best I've found on the subject, thank you so much!

I decided to subscribe only for the fact that you're so polite and calm And humble and very smart I think that you did a real good job simple and easy I just like your attitude hopefully you get more than a thousand subscribers good luck

i would have loved to see how you installed the little hooks on the wire, the only part I didn't know how to do it.

This is exactly what I was looking for! Thank you!

What kind of wire and hooks did you use? This looks perfect for what I'm trying to do.

Thanks a whole lot lol just started the van life ...in a mini van...thinking about making videos myself..you helped me out a lot with cheap ideas

Thanks Joel. Exactly what I needed and they look great!

I'm in the process of this with my vauxhall zafira. I didn't think about the curtain wire also at the bottom I only was going to only put it at the top great help cheers.

Thinking strong magnets glued (material glue) onto a thick material would be the go, get a good seal to prevent condensation...Get thick material next to nothing at junk shops, glue magnet then glue a piece of material over the magnet to make it look ok ( or fold and glue an edge trim over the magnets).No holes better seal and curtain would fit snug in the recess, curtain would open easy or be removed fully..

Thanks. Helps for making my T4

Best curtain idea, I've seen quite a few video's and this seem likes the best idea for windows that arent flat too as if the bottom goes outwards such as a wagon it will simply follow it - better than alot of Velcro solutions!

Thank you, that was exactly what I was looking for. Good luck with your channel.

I hope that van wall is insulated then ply lined first? I wouldn't use table cloth. That wall carpet you have there is also available in black from Amazon and would make much thicker curtains for your windows making it warmer for you. I have blinds at the moment but intend to replace with curtains. As I don't have a sewing machine I will use hemming strip which one simply irons in.

Perfect for what I am looking to do in my canopy.

Great curtain idea!!! Thank you! ~ Maria

the best video ever for curtains

That’s awesome thank you!!! So simple!!!😀I’m getting truck with a camper shell and I want to add curtains that move easily.

Thanks very much for the video! Just what I need for my conversion 👍

FINALLY! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR UPLOADING!

Thanks you made it so simple for me..

Brilliant. Gonna do this method on my van

Rods are better than curtain wire & they don't stretch like the wire does after time. urs look ok tho

Thanks for the video! Very helpful. Do you recall the total length of those screw eyes? Don't want to get too long and yours looked just right. Thanks

Great video! Thank you.

Might sound silly but never seen and or head of that curtain wire or rod here in the U.S. can you provide a link?

Good video . I would maybe go for anti moisture/fungus material as I get a lot of condensation sometimes .

Thanks for sharing! Great idea. Do you remember which Amazon product you bought for the rod?

Awesome job

Thank you

Great job but one suggestion; those curtains would break more light with an inner layer. Very great design for the bottom and top curtain strings!

Spot on way to make curtains, just showed my missus

Very helpful! Good video

Very helpful,thanks !

Great idea! Thanks for sharing :)

Just like many others are saying, I couldn’t get my head around a way to install mosquito netting without magnets. Cheers.

Just found your channel today and have watched a few this morning, I am looking at getting a plain panel van and doing something similar to you but have to insulate and ply line / carpet first. I have subscribed and look forward to future videos

Where do you get the fabric from ? It’s just what I need.

Should have just bought magnetic hooks would save drilling into the vehicle

Good luck with the subscribers...remember us orginsl ones when you are rich and famous!

hi, i know this is old but can you remember what size bigger hoops you got? currently doing this to mine and like yours, i think i need larger hoops to install into the van. the ones that came with my curtain rail seem a bit too small.

Hey, I’m doing this to my campervan also. Just wondering what size hoops you got? As you said the drill was 2.5mm but size are the hoops?

I think using black out curtains would be more effective. You want the curtains to look professional neat, and not tacky. If you have a new campervan you don't want to drill ugly holes all over the place.

Great !!! Thank you :)

Hi, where did you buy the material you used for the curtain from? Thanks

Very helpful video 👍

Great job

nice job, thx for sharing

That looks cool mate :)

What a fantastic build! I'm thinking of doing the same with a berlingo. Did you insulate the roof at all? I'm struggling to see how you'd take off the roof liner without ruining it.

how are these holding up, kind of tie back would have finished these off nicely

Would have used thicker material though :o))

Perfect

Neat stuff

Curtains 10 dollars, sewing machine 120..

What’s the name of the wire?

Oh dear....

What about using magnets.

Not blocking out the light 😬

wonderful
