Our own vintage trailers

We are the proud "parents" of two vintage trailers! Our latest is this 1964 Aristrocrat Lil' Loafer. She's all of 9 feet long (12 with her hitch) and can sleep 3 as long as nobody is too big or too tall! I'll post more pics as we redecorate her into the Shabby Chic "Lil' Cutie" that she is to be! Imagine a blue and white paint job and soft blues/whites/pinks inside. Here are a few of our inspiration pieces. I'll post if she gets her own blog! She's ready to camp, no restoration needed, just a redo on the color palette.

Here's a bedspread we already have...

And  a small throw...
 

Material for curtains we liked...


And these adorable spice tins I just ordered off Etsy. I already had a similar rack I can use.

And the Princess...




Princess Aquatini (a 1959 Shasta Airflyte-16) may now get a new name since she will become The Man's trailer. He's working on the restoration and she doesn't look too pretty. I'm afraid she had more rot than we thought. I think she'll still go a nice aqua color when we are ready to paint.
