Miranda Lambert's beloved Airstream, “Wanda the Wanderer,” just got a big remodel.
Her silver home-away-from-home had previously been renovated by her good friends of HGTV's Junk Gypsies. After a few years of travel and wear, Wanda needed some more TLC, and the Gypsies stepped in to fix her up.
Complete with dip-dyed fringe, a faux-snakeskin booth and an old church pew, Wanda the Wanderer's new look left Miranda speechless.
