If you don’t have the funds to buy a fully-appointed camper van, fear not. New Zealand-based VanLab’s kit will allow you to build out your own vehicle at a fraction of the cost. Everything is brilliantly flat-packed and assembles like IKEA furniture (although probably less complex). All you need is a little bit of time, a screwdriver, and the ability to figure out where everything goes. Pieces include a modular full-size bed, a table, integrated storage, and a kitchen worktop/cooking area. You can also perform a bit of customization should you so choose And VanLab also sells integrated wiring and additional kitchen components through its web configurator. VanLab’s gear works for the Nissan NV 200, Chevy City Express, and Ford Transit, and kits come in small, medium, and large sizes.

Huckberry’s Essential Holiday Gift Guide
Unzip your coat and have some mulled wine on the house—you’ve arrived at your final gifting destination: The Holiday Gift Guide. It’s like your friendly neighborhood one-stop holiday shop, except instead of balsa wood ornaments, ours is packed with thoughtful gifts for everyone on your list. Future heirlooms, small-but-significant stocking stuffers, and gear for getting out there (or staying in)—are all right here. There’s no music playing in the background though, so you’ll just have to hum Bing Crosby while you click around instead.
