What an amazing job Cat! That is just so cute, but I'm really wondering where you get your farm dresses at? Internet, store, or homemade?
I've put you on my blogroll as a daily read! You're welcome to stop by!
Oh How FUN is that cute little Trailer! Love the PINK! And, the little prayin' kids. So sweet!
Oh Cat, what a treat it was to click on here and see an update of your precious little pink and white vintage travel trailer and you standing there in front of her all sparkling clean.
I'm lovin' the pinks that you used. The contrast of the light and dark really pop. Your Daddy-O is really doing a beautiful job, what a sweetheart you have there.
Have a great week and good luck gettin' the finishing touches ready for the trip. I have no doubt that you will be the belle of that ball.
Hugs,
Sue

Your little cutie pie trailer turned out adorable. It is so you. I hope to see it at the party on Sat. Where do you think you'll go camping first? You will surely be noticed. What fun it must have been decorating.

You are as cute as can be and so is your trailer. It's one of my dreams to own one of these and fix it up.
What a cute vintage trailer for a vintage housewife! I can't believe you have done all that in only 3 weeks! The transformation is unbelievable! I love the pink colors! Are you in the Temecula area? I am in the Corona area! Not that far from you!
Cat! She is just adorable! You have done such a good job, hon!

Is the stove paint heat safe? Where did you find it?
Wish I could find an old trailer, how fun!
My name is Dana and I was given up for adoption 31 years ago. I have reason to believe that my birth family was involved with the trailerites. My fathers name is Brian Smith he has two sisters one of which is a drawf and he also has a older brother. They grew up in Hamilton,Ontario. They had a house on the mountian between East 21st and East 27th street (or at least that is what I have been told)I was also told Brian's mother was rumored to be a hairdresser. I am desperate to find my father. So if anyone has any information for me or even if you just think you might know someone that can help me then please I am begging you,I am begging for your help. I can be contacted through my email or feel free to call me at home (289) 396-3552. He is in my prayers every night and now you will be too. Thanks for time you have taken to read this and I hope to hear back from you.Please,he's my father and I am running out of opitions. Dana Riso
Totally love the pink trailer! That is really a magic cottage on wheels! Love love it! Thanks for sharing!
Cat - I love what you've done to your trailer! I have the EXACT same trailer (mine is a 1960), but your before photos are EXACTLY my trailer. AND I put in the same black and white floor too. How strange! Did you do all the trailer work yourself? Would love to hear about it. Thanks, Deb
I LOVE IT! Your trailer is AWESOME! :)
I love it..So very fun and cute
Lovin' everything my friend! Can't wait to see your next "adventure"!
Wow! I love your trailer. Sooo cute! I am also very in love with all things vintage. I just picked up a 1967 trailer for the family off craigslist and plan to bring it back to its roots :) I have been googling for inspiration and stumbled upon your beauty. I am almost ready to launch my new blog and was curious if I could link to your trailer in my post. I have to share all it glory and my inspiration. I already added one of your buttons. I am totally a vintage housewife Thanks.
Hi Cat, just found and followed your blog! Love it and love your pink (caravan) sorry being from ol blighty we have to call them that. I make over vintage caravans for a living and love thrifting and vintage. You have amazing style!

Just saw your blog and now I admire you! Never stop living the way you would like to live!
