Need some help collecting stuff for a decoupage table top

Since I'm planning to replace the top for my dinette table in the Amerigo, I got thinking about what I wanted to do.

Then I had a brain storm and thought, "Wouldn't it be really neat to make a table top with a bunch of old bits of RV/Camp stuff inlaid in the top from the 70s and 80s.

So, I need some help locating small bits and bops to use (old KOA badge, truck camper things, brochures for campgrounds, small campground maps, etc...) from that time period to use in it.

If you have anything you'd like to send a color photocopy or something of, please let me know.

Once i have it all, I'm going to lay it out on the top of a piece of hardwood board that's been stained, then seal it in with a special table top pour epoxy that is usually used for this.

Thank you in advance :).

    Love this idea. If I ever get that old Aristocrat Lo-Liner I have been lusting after, this would be a cool idea to try. Since I did a ton of decoupage back in the sixties and seventies, I think I could handle it! Maybe even some pictures of our kids camping back then.


    That's one of the things I was thinking of putting in it is some duplicate prints of some of my parent's old pictures of me when they still had their pickup camper :).

  • Cool idea...
    Poke around Google Images...for rv posters, rv history, vintage rv, rv memorabilia, etc...

    You can copy, print and use anything you see that you like..

    Here, I'll get you started.

  • Matt- what a neat idea! I cannot help you because I purged a lot of my stuff when I moved.
