A blog about vintage trailers and glamping
Kenskill's are great trailers. They appear to be very well built and I really appreciate the layouts in them. This is what Karen writes about her trailer; "What a delightful site! I too am a vintage trailer owner. I have a 1959 Kenskill with all original pink appliances. She even has a pink porcelain toilet and shower surround. Of course I wanted to paint … [Read more...]
OK, so you all remember last week I did a short segment on Hallmark's Home & Family Show in conjunction with their interview with MaryJane Butters of MaryJanes Farm about Glamping? I thought I would share a short clip of it so you could see it if you missed the airing of the episode. I come in at the 2:55 mark. I had a lot of fun doing this and was honored that … [Read more...]

My segment is near the end of their interview with MaryJane Butters of http://www.maryjanesfarm.org/ where she's talking about Glamping. Hope … [Read more...]
Recently I found out about Sourpuss clothing and I have to say their retro and vintage inspired clothing is awesome! I was so excited today when I received this wonderful Happy Kamper Aubrey dress in the mail. The fit is perfect and I absolutely love the design! It has little vintage trailers, pink flamingos, martinis, bows and retro stars. It's totally fabulous and … [Read more...]
Let's make some cuteness shall we? This is one of my new designs that I just finished up. You know how they say it's a lot of work to restore or build a vintage trailer from the ground up? Not with this one! This is a fun and easy little canned ham camper to make. It's soft and squishy and I'm sure everyone that sees it won't be able to resist picking it up. Those of … [Read more...]
I just love these signs made by Andrea Disharoon! They are made from aluminum and measure 12 x 18. Andrea can custom make a sign for you to suit your needs. For mine she made a couple with the name of my trailer and the year/model and for another she made it with just the year and model. She can also make these in various colored lettering and fonts. Aren't they … [Read more...]
A town named Hell? Who is responsible for naming it that? I'm speaking of Hell, MI. It was actually quite a lovely place. We attended the Airstream rally after being invited by my friends Rhonda and Dave who were the hosts. It was a great time. We picked a nice shady spot up on the hill. The view from the rear bed. Gotta love that little Jukebox all lit … [Read more...]
Do you all remember these? Do you remember sitting at a diner and being able to put in a dime or quarter and play a couple of tunes right at your table? OK, I admit I probably wasn't quite born yet to remember but I have seen modern ones in diner's in California. This is a Seeburg Wall-O-Matic 100 Juke Box. This little table top version would sit at the table in a … [Read more...]
Have you ever went on a camping trip and felt like you were having such fun that the time went by way too fast? That is how we felt this weekend. We had an absolute blast at the Northern Indiana vintage trailer rally. I must say that it's one of my favorite rallies. The KOA is great and all the attendees are just wonderful. It was so nice to catch up with old friends … [Read more...]
OK, so I've sort of kicked around a few ideas for curtains for the 55 Bellwood including novelty fabric and vintage hanky's. What I finally decided on is to use various vintage feed and grain sacks. I wasn't sure how these would look but after sewing up a couple I am actually quite digging them. They are unique and pretty neat looking. I actually don't even mind the … [Read more...]
