My girl is as rugged as she is refined...

Super Shabby Chandy...in the kitchen

She is not entirely finished...as I have a few tweaks left, such as, finishing the croc hide insets, placing the ceiling tin and wallpaper.

A handful of finishing touches and she will be complete!!!

Thank you for stopping by to take a look inside my pretty girl! We hope to meet you one day on the Gypsy trail!

Always remember...

On the Road Again!


Like the typical GYPSIES we are...we've got an itch to MOVE!!! Impromptu ROAD TRIP!!!

My dear friend Sandy, formerly of Tattered House, has invited me once again to her NEW Mes Amis street market.

We are thrilled to be apart of her great Vintage Antique Show for the 3rd time! If you haven't made a point to attend this market in the past, this would be a great time to do it! With over 40 hand-picked, carefully selected vendors, this is a MUST SEE and a great all around Vintage Market experience!

I HAD A "GYPSY" DREAM...

I HAD A "GYPSY" DREAM...


For six years SHE sat on our property sad, lonely, and tired!

She is my 1965 Cardinal Lovebird vintage "TIN GYPSY"!!! 

 
She had such great bones...but needed some major LOVE, elbow grease, and TLC!



Now the real kick here and sentimentality is, she was born the same year I was!!!

GYPSY WANDERLUST SOUL MATES...YEAH I THINK SO!

She called to me and asked for a FACE LIFT! She had waited oh too long...




OH-MY-G-Y-P-S-Y!!!!!

SHE was away for much too long...

but the perfect shade of lipstick is worth the wait!!!


The JOY I feel from just staring at her in the driveway is indescribable...I can't imagine the euphoria of taking her on the highways and byways!!!

She will be my "SHOW PONY", travel companion, partner-in-crime, glamper, highway hotel, and all around "TIN GYPSY" 

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE HER to BITS!!!


Keep close as "TIN GYPSY" continues her restoration "journey". 

As we progress with her up do, I will continue to share her evolution! 

Gypsy Sisters...please share your vintage trailer and glamping adventures that you have had or may DREAM about!!!

HAPPY GYPSY TRAILS!!!

XOXO
