This weekend we went with our friends,
to the small town of Waterville, Washington
to the small town of Waterville, Washington
to their county fair.
As well as the fair their city park was occupied
by a group called the Rustique Divas.
Here are a few of their trailers.
In my next post I'll show you some of their
creative booths filled with crafts and antiques.
They say that a picture is worth a thousand words,
so this post is mostly photos.
These little trailers are so cute, who has words to describe them?
This little trailer was named after this ladies grandmother
and that is grandma's photo on the side by the door.
I hope you enjoyed the little tour.
I will post photos of their booths in a few days.
Be sure and come back.
It was a wonderful day and the first Saturday
that we have taken off from working on our place since
spring when we got the keys and started fixing it up:)
Thanks for visiting,
please leave a comment . . .
I love reading them.
Keep Smiling!

Really cute little trailers, I believe I will take one of each...lol! Sounds like you have a nice weekend and you probably got some new ideas along the way.

Hi Louise, wait until you see my next post . . . so many ideas from these ladies booths :)
DeleteI want one of those trailers, they are so cute.
ReplyDeleteI know they are adorable, right!
DeleteOh why didn't you ring me??? I would have gladly accompanied you. These are my dream trailers!
ReplyDeleteMaybe next time :) I'm very happy that you like them.
DeleteHi Connie,
ReplyDeleteOh bless. Thank you for your lovely comment on my post today! I definitely feel the same about you!
I have a pinboard titled "Camp Trailer Love." Do you know that they make new trailers in the style of these? Yep, I've looked into it for when I retire. Unfortunately I found out that my CRV won't pull much of anything! These are absolutely adorable!!! Thanks for sharing your weekend and I can't wait to see your next post.
Hugs,
Kay
Hi Kay, it is always a pleasure to have you visit. I had no idea that they make new ones like these, but I am sure that they are selling very well :)
DeleteHow wonderful! I sooo love those little campers. I can't wait to see the crafts!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing.
Hi Nancy, check back in a few days and I'll have the crafts posted. It is always so much fun to see what other folks are making :) I had a lovely Saturday, it was great to have a day of fun . . . I sure needed it :)
DeleteSounds like you had a fun weekend! I am sure it was good to get a break from working on your house. Such cute little trailers!
ReplyDeleteHi Rebecca, it was glorious to have a day for fun and not work:) I truly needed it.
DeleteOh Connie..how sweet these trailers are!!We call them caravans over here. KCan't wait to see inside some of these.!! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteHi Judy, these little gems are so special and the ladies that fix them up are so rightfully proud of them. We had a wonderful Saturday, all fun and no work :)
DeleteOh my goodness, the trailers are adorable!
ReplyDeleteThey are so much fun and the ladies that own them are all so sweet and happy to show them off:)
DeleteOh! yes!
ReplyDeleteI very much enjoyed this tour. We have our camper in our sights...and are finally getting it ready to go camping. The Honey has taken charge again and is really wanting to get it up and going for camping. We have had it for 3 years and after he had his heart attack...well, we just didn't mess with it any longer. I'm thrilled about the prospect of camping in it...and traveling and seeing the sights.
These campers you've shown are just adorable.
I bet you are so happy to have a day off-- and get to do something fun. I would very much love touring some in person and your pictures made me feel like I did.
Pat
Hello Pat, I loved reading your comment and very happy to hear that you and your sweetie will be doing some traveling and camping. It is so much fun to get out and enjoy nature, not to mention campfires and smores:) Glad you enjoyed this little tour. These ladies have some very cute little trailers.
DeleteAdorable, I just love 'em! I watched a TV show the other night about flipping RVs, they take old, vintage trailers and refurbish them with the same era fixtures/furnishings as they would have had when built.I can't wait for your next post.
ReplyDeleteHi Linda, that show sounded interesting. These little trailers were so cute and it was fun meeting the ladies and seeing their crafts and antiques. Before going to see the trailers we went to the fair, where our young nephew and niece were showing their 4H pigs. They did very well and sold both pigs for $500 each. If they keep this up, by the time they are ready for college they are going to have quite a stash:)
DeleteEvening Connie, You know this post makes my heart smile!! Oh my poor Sweetie....she has been neglected and ignored this Spring and Summer! I love looking at these darling vintage campers, I can't wait till you post more. I will be soooo glad to get moved all-the-way this week....hopefully we start feeling settled again. I am glad you got a break...I know you and Steve needed it because you have been doing what we have been doing...but more! I love each and everyone of those little trailers...I don't think I could pick a favorite! Have a Blessed and wonderful week~~~Jesus is coming soon! Roxie
ReplyDeleteHi Roxie, I feel the same way you do about your Sweetie, we have not had the motor-home or the boat out all summer. There has been so much work to be done, but if we weren't working on our new little homes, well, we would all be having a sad winter. I feel so happy for you...moving in this week. . . hooray!
DeleteLOVE these little rustic trailers...want one! Thanks for sharing Connie ~*~Lisa
ReplyDeleteHi Lisa, well, I hope that you get one . . . they are pretty darn adorable :)
DeleteLove the little vintage campers...they are all so adorable!!
ReplyDelete~Cindy
Hi Cindy, I totally agree :)
DeleteHow fun! I have been reading about these cute trailers. I wish we had the space for one because I miss camping, but I don't want to do the sleeping on the ground thing anymore.
ReplyDeleteHi Carol, after a certain age, sleeping on the ground just doesn't work, LOL. I think having one in the backyard for a guest house would be fun :)
DeleteIn New Zealand we call those Caravans. Whatever they are called I think world wide they are gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteGood Morning Sue, I agree, they are totally gorgeous, especially after being given at special woman's touch :)
DeleteHow absolutely gorgeous. This is so weird, yesterday evening I was looking over here in the UK for a little caravan for myself which I plan on renovating and turning into my craft/blogging/chill out space. Thanks for the lovely ideas :-)
ReplyDeleteGood Morning Kay, one of these would make a perfect craft room, having a kitchen sink for clean-up would be perfect, too:)
DeleteAfter all the hard work you two have been doing you deserved a day out for something fun. This certainly looks like it fit the bill too. I would have loved to see these up close. Love all these trailers I can't imagine spending a weekend camping in one with an entire family, with they sure are cute.
ReplyDeleteHi Ann, most of these women use them for craft sales and weekend girlfriend get-aways. They are perfect for one person or maybe two:)
DeleteSo cute!
ReplyDeleteMakes me want to go get our "Tin Can Cottage" out of storage, and keep working on it.
We have it almost completely fixed up, and ready for trippin'.
Thanks for the inspiring pictures.
Happy for you to have had a day off, and just relax :)
K.
Oh, I hope that you do get it out and finish it.
DeleteI would love to see photos, and just think of the fun that you will have traveling around in your little cutie :)
My goodness, those camper trailers are indeed a sight to behold! I'm dying to have one now! You must have had an absolutely ball at this fair and I'll look forward to your post on the Rustique Divas' craft booths. So sweet of you to visit my blog and leave such a nice comment and join, thank you so much! Cindy from TheCranesNest.com

ReplyDeleteI agree they are adorable and not an easy job getting some of them redone and road ready.

DeleteThanks for the pretty pictures! We had one of these and I wanted to do this, but we never got around to getting it fixed up so we sold it to some old people.
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Kathy M.
Oh Kathy, I wish that you still had it! Now, that you are retired you would have the time to fix it up :) I know that you would have turned it into a little gem:)
DeleteOh my goodness, how cute are these little trailers! What fun it would be to have one and fix it up. Glad you found me and invited me over. I am now following along. I will be looking through your posts.
