GLAMMING A CAMPER

MANY OF YOU KNOW THAT WITH TODAYS ECONOMY, YOU HAVE TO SCRIMP & SAVE ON PLEASURE TRIPS; SO IN AN EFFORT TO CUT CORNERS YOU MAY WANT SOMETHING LONG LASTING, LIKE AN OUTBUILDING TURNED INTO A GETAWAY OR A CAMPER AT A LAKE; I AM FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO HAVE BOTH & MAKING THEM COMFORTABLE IS SO MUCH FUN WHEN YOU HAVE PROPS ALL OVER THE PLACE.I HAVE PICTURED MY STUDIO ON HERE BEFORE, I WILL REFRESH YOUR MEMORY :) BUT MY CAMPER CIRCA 1987 MAY LOOK LIKE ONE ON THE OUTSIDE, BUT THE INSIDE IS A COTTAGE ON WHEELS, FROM THE BARKCLOTH CURTAINS TO THE SLIPCOVERED LOVESEAT, PAINTED WALLS & TCHOTCHKES THAT EVOKE COTTAGE CHARM. SO HERE IS A SHORT TOUR OF MY "GLAMPER", AS THE NEW TERM IS FOR, NOT YOUR ORDINARY CAMPER DECORATING :)
I'M NOT ALWAYS A HAPPY CAMPER, ESPECIALLY IF I HAVE NO ELECTRIC :) MY IDEA OF ROUGHING IT, IS A NITE AT THE MOTEL 8, REAL CAMPING IS THE HILTON LOL. BUT I GOT A GOOD DEAL ON THIS MOBILE GET AWAY & COULDN'T RESIST SO I HOPE YOU ENJOY THESE PICTURES.




THESE ARE HOMESPUN CHECK CURTAINS THAT I MADE WITH DEEP OLD TATTED LACE FOR THE BORDER


SINCE I DON'T USE THE STOVE TOP, I PUT AN OLD CUTTING BOARD ON TOP FOR MORE SPACE


THESE ARE COOL RESIN SEA SHELLS THAT ARE AMAZINGLY REALISTIC


THIS IS THE BACK SHELF BEHIND MY SOFA


THIS REPRO SIGN IS SO CUTE WITH THE OLD CAMPER


ANOTHER LITTLE CAMPER & SAMPLER & LOG LAMP



MY HUSBANDS ALL FOR COMFORT, SO THE WING CHAIR RECLINER IS HIS & I ADDED THE ELECTRIC FIREPLACE FOR ATMOSPHERE & IT ALSO KEEPS US WARM :)


I LOVE THIS CANVAS PILLOW


FIREPLACE

KITCHEN TABLE WITH OLD TATTED LACE TABLECLOTH


THIS IS MY CORNER SINK



MY LOVESEAT


MY SIDE TABLE WITH BARKCLOTH COVER


TWO ADIRONDACK CHAIRS THAT ARE IN FRONT OF THE FOUNTAIN


THE FOUNTAIN, HOW SOOTHING.........


DINING ALFRESCO, BUT HUBBY DOESN'T LIKE BUGS!



PLANTER ON THE PORCH RAILING THAT I PUT NEAR PATIO


ALL THE COMFORTS OF HOME (A LITTLE HOME) EVEN A TV, IS THIS CAMPING?!


I MADE THESE BARKCLOTH CURTAINS FOR ALL THE WINDOWS


ABOVE THE FRIDGE TO STOW STUFF ARE THESE 40'S PICNIC TINS I COLLECT


ME, STIRRING THE FIRE


AH, COUNTRY LIFE


I'M PRACTICING FOR "SURVIVOR"




CAUGHT IN THE ACT OF DOING NOTHING!


MY FOUNTAIN & SOME OLD GREEN SHUTTERS FOR PRIVACY.
