C is for Caravans & Creativity
Greetings!
We received our latest copy{May}of Cath Kidston and just couldn't get enough of the holivans and campers so I had to blog about it. When I discovered that Happy Loves Rosie was featured in the mag I was quite surprised. I guess you just never know what life will throw your way. I wish I could pull off a vintage camper in the back yard but quite positive that pigs would fly before a camper sat contently in the backyard. I think it would block out my neighbors perfectly. I would stock pile with homemade quilts, books, hot drinks or cold lemonade and various other sundries. Of course I would need a mini fridge and a long extension cord so I could hide my secret stash of Lemon Liberte yogurt.
The 1940's Teardrop looks pretty cute as well. Everything you need in a nutshell or in this case a teardrop. The closest I can get to this concept is having a vintage pic nic basket and Scottish plaid, wool blanket in the trunk. We just need decent weather. So far we made it to the beach 3 times and each visit was overwhelmingly beautiful. I even got to read a few pages of Sea Glass while kidlets filled buckets with sand.

I hope you all have Happy thoughts despite the miserable rain. If you need a boost check out Happy Loves Rosie. I can't help but walk away with a smile & spring in my step.

We have just our first proper lot of rain in London for about 6 weeks. The way the children behaved in the playground today, you would have thought they had not seen rain for 6 months.
Those caravans are just too sweet. I'd love one too! x
Becki,
I would love to find a vintage trailer and renovate it...as soon as I am done with the house. (Don't tell Thomas!)
I have a friend with a blog that does just that:

They are like little jewelry boxes.
Your Friend,
