Some news from us!

After 2 years of van building, we are super excited to be taking a new leap. We’ve ridden an incredible wave for the past few years and just as it felt right to jump on it then, it feels right to ride the next one now. Change is hella scary sometimes, but so can be said for staying the same.

Simon has discovered an immense passion for woodwork and cabinet making so will be focussing on growing in that and it’s time for me to focus on and some Youth Work training 🧡

We’ve learnt so much more than we ever thought possible about ourselves and each other (don’t pay for couples counselling guys, just start a business together 😅). And it absolutely wouldn’t have been as fun as it has without such an industry of incredible makers around us. We are coming out a hell of a lot stronger, wiser and ready for the next adventure.

Our last conversion will be our last and we’ll be holding onto Rae of Sunshine for the time being. Thank you SO MUCH all of you who have made this chapter so great and supportive, now onto the next one!

Our latest van is for sale 🌟

If we were to name her, which we don’t because we leave that luxury to the owners, it would undoubtedly have to be Sunflower or Daffodil for this sunshiney number ready for spring.

The van holiday that got us into doing this full time was a 10 day road trip through the Scottish Highlands, and we couldn’t recommend it more. And don’t tell anyone who hired Rae in summer… but we kinda think she comes alive in the winter with that wood burner.

P.s. are also offering gift vouchers if you want to treat someone for Christmas 💛

Our latest build for Autumn/Winter. We’ve enjoyed the Rae of Sunshine layout so much we made another, and now another! We have a secret soft spot for this one though, there’s just something about those autumn colours…

07/10/2021

Vans coming out of our eyeballs 👀 this shiny young thing will be ready in the new year. Don’t worry though, we’re going to finish the other one first.

06/10/2021

Happy 1-year-since-we-decided-to-start-a-van-business to us. Still smiling 😊

18/09/2021

We’ve had an absolute belter of a summer. It’s been non-stop. It’s been so nice to see so many people enjoying Rae of Sunshine and we’ve loved cracking on with the latest conversion. We’re feeling pretty pooped now though. We heard last week that supply issues mean we’ll be waiting on our wood burner for a further two weeks, delaying our finish date. Given it’s out of our hands, we’ve decided to capitalise on it and take the week to rest, reset and recharge. Back soon ✌🏻

08/09/2021

It’s nearly my favourite season of the year. We’d be lying if we said it hasn’t influenced the look of our latest build 🍁🍃🪵

Is there a better time to be in a van than autumn? Crisp sun and slightly longer nights make for the best adventures followed by a cozy night by the wood burner. What’s your favourite time to be away?

06/09/2021

We’re bringing back our favourite tiles for our Autumn 2021 build. Max cozy vibes. Ready very soon 👀

Rae is someone’s surprise birthday present this weekend 😭 our baby all grown up!

20/08/2021

Been feeling all nostalgic lately. We hit 1,000 followers last week, almost a year to the date we sold the first van and laughed my Dad out the room when he suggest we do this full time.

We’d love to be the kind of people who are organised enough to do educational YouTube videos whilst we build, but sadly we can only manage 1 second a day.

Here’s a little insight into the year we’ve had. As you can see, we haven’t got any more professional, Simon still hates being in front of a camera (we know, the ratio is off) and we’re still having a ball.

Thanks you lovely lot for being part of our journey ❤️

A king size bed with enough bedside cupboards for all your candles, books, board games and useless gadgets you always think you’ll use and never do. We sort of built them by accident in Rae and they turned out to be pretty handy. (Is a getting excited about storage a sign of getting older?) 👀

29/07/2021

We were pretty nervous the first time we put a woodburner in a van. Worried it would be too hot, that we wouldn’t actually ever use it. Turned out to be the best thing we ever did. It gives off the perfect amount of heat, dries any moisture out of the air and is cosy as anything. Well, maybe not when we’re in a 32 degree heatwave, but when winter comes (let’s face it, a good 6 months of the year), we’ll be chuffed.

20/07/2021

Our latest van has found it’s people ❤️ say hello to the lovely owners of our latest conversion, Mel & Dave, we can’t wait to see the adventures you go on! Those who missed this one, keep your eyes peeled for the next one, ready in 10 weeks 🌞

09/07/2021

FOR SALE ✨ Our latest build is up for sale over at folks. All the details are on there. Anyone who feels inclined to share this post will have a special place in our hearts! Love to you all, let’s get her a new owner 💛

Photos from Vanfolk's post 08/07/2021

Rae of Sunshine’s little sis is here! The proper ad will be linked later but for now, she’s a 2014 Mercedes Sprinter with 75k miles on the clock and a huge heart. We’ll leave her naming to the new owners ❤️
