Best of Junk Gypsy Airstreams is the twelfth episode in the third season of the popular television series, Junk Gypsies. This episode features a collection of the best Airstream restorations ever done by Amie Sikes and Jolie Sikes.

The show revolves around the adventures of the Junk Gypsies, two sisters who work in an aesthetic and interior designing firm that specializes in creating unique and unconventional designs using junk. The sisters, along with their team of talented craftsmen, transform vintage trailers, old furniture and accessories into functional and stylish works of art.

In this episode, the show revisits the best Airstream restorations that the Junk Gypsies have worked on throughout the years. An Airstream trailer is an iconic and classic piece of American history and is often associated with road trips and adventure. This episode demonstrates the versatility and flexibility of the Junk Gypsies in renovating and designing these sought-after travel trailers.

The episode starts with a beautiful renovation of a 31-foot Airstream trailer. The trailer was originally owned by a couple who wanted to create a combination of a cozy guest room and home office that can also be used for road trips. The design was inspired by the wife's love for sunflowers and the husband's love for western themes. The Junk Gypsies recreated the trailer with a unique rustic and warm interior using reclaimed wood, steel, and vintage furniture. The cabinetry was painted in a bright yellow color that embodied the essence of sunflowers. The combination of the décor elements, the yellow cabinets, pictures of sunflowers, and the finishing, was breathtakingly beautiful.

The second restoration project featured a vintage 1960s Airstream trailer named "Glamper". The trailer was in dire need of a complete overhaul, and the Junk Gypsies transformed it into a truly unique masterpiece. The team worked on aspects such as replacing the outdated exterior with glossy red paint and adding decorative touches such as chrome accents and retro lighting fixtures.

Inside the trailer, the team created a cozy and comfortable living space using a mix of vintage and modern furniture. The highlights of the design were the use of unique and eye-catching wallpapers in the bedroom and an adorable pink cabinet in the bathroom. The trailer was then given a name "Glamper" to reflect the retro and glammed-up look of the trailer.

Another Airstream restoration that was showcased was a trailer created for a young family of four. The family adored the Bohemian and eclectic style, and the Junk Gypsies created a bespoke space that reflected this style. The team selected bold colors and prints to decorate the trailer, and the combination of these colors and prints resulted in a vibrant and playful space. The design was a mix of vintage and modern pieces of furniture, which added to the contrast and uniqueness of the design. The family's love for outdoors and nature was also incorporated, which created a travel trailer that truly spoke for its owners.

The show also featured the innovative ways the Junk Gypsies incorporated storage in the Airstream trailers. As Airstream trailers are limited in space, the team used every square inch for storage installations. They used pull-out drawers beneath the bench seats, customized overhead storage spaces, and even installed hidden storage behind walls that helped create more space in the living area.

In conclusion, Best of Junk Gypsy Airstreams showcased the exceptional creativity and uniqueness of Amie Sikes and Jolie Sikes. The team used their imagination to piece together these innovative designs that gave life to these vintage travel trailers. The episode provided a glimpse into the world of Airstream restorations and how the Junk Gypsies have become masters in creating one-of-a-kind Airstream trailers. The show's viewers can get inspired to create their own unique Airstream designs or renovate other trailers as a creative outlet for their home and furniture design interests.
