Where To Purchase A Vintage Trailer Awning

You are in the right place if you are looking for vintage trailer awnings for sale. This year I have Pre-Made awnings ready to mail. dfoster@bellsouth.net
Sunbrella marine grade awning fabric has an expected 10 years before showing signs of fading or leaking. It is equally vibrant on both sides of the fabric, and has a high UV rating to protect you from the harmful effects of the sun. The 100% acrylic woven fabric has color to the core of each fiber. This is not a screen printed fabric on white material. Sunbrella marine grade awning fabric is breathable for comfortable air flow. It will not crack on fold lines, like vinyl, and is also mildew resistant.
I am in the process of getting my bulk order of Sunbrella, and will update you once I receive the inventory list.
For now, I am posting the Pre-Made awnings that are available for sale.

Making Inventory Awnings And Taking a Few Requests

 Update: Link To Vintage Trailer Awnings By Kristi For Sale
Up next is a request awning in Captain Navy Classic. It will be an 8' x 8' awning, and they have a choice of Natural or Captain Navy braid trim.

                                                              SOLD
A 7 1/2' x 7 1/2' VW arched awning in progress also in Captain Navy Classic will be for sale.
Another request is for window awnings and a small arched awning, out of Hatteras Raven.
I will be providing the quick release hardware for the three window awnings, and they will be purchasing and cutting the marine tubing themselves. I will be making up one, for them to use as an example for the others

Hatteras Raven
 They are planning to angle the tent poles toward the trailer, so sending along flag pole holders, which they might connect to their stabilizing jacks. Always coming up with ideas for people to try!

 Continuing to use up my 2019 inventory, but I do have a bulk load of more Sunbrella on it's way. I will update my fabric, once I see the invoice.

A Customer Shared A Picture of Their Arched Vintage Trailer Awning

A customer shared a picture of their trailer, with an arched vintage trailer awning, which I made.
Vintage Trailer Awnings by Kristi has been making arched vintage trailer awnings for many years, and it is always nice to receive a picture, even when they remember to send it years later.

Vintage Trailer Awnings by Kristi Arched Awning
Sunbrella marine grade awning fabric has an expected 10 years before fading or leaking. It also provides UV protection against the harmful effects of the sun.
The arched awnings, have extra height underneath and incline for rain run off. The shock poles make the awning taut, so they are not staked out tightly. For this reason, vendors are able to set up on hard-packed soil or even concrete, and just  use weighted tie-down lines, to keep the wind from flipping the arched awning. Some people use milk jugs filled with water, or other more creative ideas like vintage thermos, vintage cooler, vintage picnic baskets, to give you some idea.
