| proper lighting even Eric thinks she's sweet... |
 |
| restoration hardware paint.....love it... fresh, clean,and calming... all things camping should include (it's discontinued but I'll send you a paint chip to match at your local hardware if you're interested) |
 |
| new countertop underway.. oven and drawer pulls refurbished curtain making.....continues |
 |
| a new shelf...to hold trinkets, quilts, and every treasure I'm sure she'll be needing question: should I stencil along the shelf trim???? I'm thinking - go for it.. |
 |
| the large wire basket holds the spare tires - 3 a cover is planned to hold up the geraniums,vintage green watering can all surrounded by a picket fence guarded by a sleeping hound... |
 |
| awaiting curtains...the blue platter - tin....a thrift store find!!!! this isn't how the shelf will look... I was just so excited I started putting everything up there |
 |
| all the thrifting finds... fits perfectly....the inside cabinets needs paint - Man In Black says not necessary soon there'll be baskets to secure while traveling... everything is nonbreakable.. even the pretty large white platters... . |
 |
| we traced what was left of the original decal markings... soon another will be made to replace it along with her name large and over the back window...."ARIEL" she's an aristocrat lil loafer.. see? Ariel... or the other thought... I'm a lil mermaid in my tuna can,,,,, |
 |
| not even the drainage will be free of frill... a vintage fabric bow will complete the trim |
 |
| oh so cozy at night.... recycle and repurpose.. the cashew jar?? holds screws and hardware during her restoration |
 |
| we haven't begun the polishing yet... she's in need of soap and water.. no leaks.. the window plastic was added protection by the sellers all screens...perfect all windows...100%.... one tiny rock hole in a single pane...easy peasy to fix |
 |
| there'll be more photos to come and then I'll post her in all her glory as we hit the road... now seriously.... don't ya want one of your own???? do it...Pam... be my Sister On The Fly... |

I am so excited for you! This will be so much fun, getting her all fixed up for her new life! I have been hinting...well, actually, bugging about getting an Airstream, but it can be anything...I would be thrilled with one just like your little doll house on wheels.
Have fun and I can't wait to see more! xo
She is coming right along and looking fab! Super excited for you guys. I have a good friend who is part of the sisters on the fly group. Her photos are always so awesome. I can't wait to camp with you!!! XO
Wow, looking great!! A fun project, with a lot more fun to come. I need to come over and see her in person soon!
She is so sweet! You guys are doing an awesome job fixing her so she is all yours!!
I absolutely love Ariel! She is so stinking cute! I love all your special loving touches you are giving her and can't wait to see more pictures!

It is SO CUTE!
I have been drooling over having my own little camper for the longest time!
I am so happy for you!
Oh, it's darling! I'd love an airstream or a Scotty http://www.sunset.com/home/architecture-design/stylish-trailer-home-00418000077333/page12.html
But now I think I might need one of these--you've done a fabulous job!
