We're getting on with making our van window frames this time! It took a while to figure out how we wanted to frame the windows, so we had left this on our todo list for a while!

We decided to make a box frame recessed into the Transit walls, with a built-in windowsill that we can use to put things on. We used some of our leftover cladding to make the backs of the frames and finished them off with the same Osmo oil that we used for the ceiling.

After the small side window frames were done, we had to tackle the big one!

We're really happy with how they all turned out... even if they they were a little awkward with the strange shapes you get in a van!

Thanks for watching! Any comments or questions? Let us know below!
