PRAM TRANSFORMATION | MOUNTAIN BUGGY DUET

Hi guys!
So I've been busy tinkering away at my new pram these last two weeks and I thought I would take you all on the ride! Sorry I have been missing here on KZread but life has been crazy! Hopefully I will be back soon but for now I hope you enjoy this little video!
Here is a list of everything I have used;
- Mountain Buggy Duet ($75) from Gumtree
- VeeBee Rain Cover ($25) from Baby Bunting
- 25mm Handlebar Cover ($4.15) from Clark Rubber
-19mm Handlebar Cover ($3.80) from Clark Rubber
- Black Belting ($5) from Spotlight
- Blue Belting ($2.50) from Spotlight
- VHT Fabric Spray ($15.99) from Auto Barn
- iDye Fabric Dye ($14.99each) from Spotlight x 3
- Duplicolor Fabric Spray ($22 for 2) from Spotlight x 2
- Mountain Buggy Parts [Middle Clicker, Strap Covers, Lock System] ($39.88) from Mountain Buggy Website
Total: ~$260
But I could have saved a bit of money on the fabric dyes etc., if I knew what I was doing ;) but you live and let learn!
Hope you all enjoy! :)
Love Mummy Mish!

    As a pram restorer/collector myself, I think you did a super job on the Mountain Buggy. You're a very talented stroller restorer. Fixing nice strollers up sure beats having them end up as landfill.

    A very inspiring video. I was going to buy a whole new seat fabric ($150) for my black Bugaboo Cam3 as two small patches on the sides of it have become a little faded. With my new baby due to arrive soon I wanted to freshen my pram up. I'm going to give the fabric paint you recommended a go. Thanks heaps :)

    I tried the vht spray paint and it smelt like paint fumes, they wouldn't come out, and the fabric became stiff. Maybe simply spray upholstery fabric paint would be better

    you really did one amazing job girl, good for you.. just one tip when you see those little bits that didn't quite color perfectly. i use diluted liquid shoe polish. i recently made over a faded emmaljunga for my grandaughter and found this tip online. the pram now looks brand new. I just emptied the liquid black shoe polish into a jar, added same amount of water, gave it a shake and painted my pram. :) well done

    This pram retails for $750 brand new. I bought mine second hand for $75 and ended up spending roughly $260 all together to fix it up (including the new rain cover). Everything I used and all prices are listed in the description box. Hope this helps :)

    The fabric will be extremely stiff and when it gets wet (rain or drink spills) it might run a tad.. I definitely recommend a cold wash after spray painting
