Tonight we leave for
a three week westward adventure. Four kids and trailer in tow!
Do you remember my
post about a ‘Marriage on Wheels’, if not click and get filled
in on the drama.
I went to work on
figuring out a way to mix our trailer dreams with a very thrifty
budget!
Such Fun
Upon completion Roger kissed and complimented me, sweet rewards...
I bought curtains on
sale from Ikea and recovered all the hideous trailer upholstery.
Then nic-knacked from
thrift shops and garage sales.
The bedding I mostly
had stored in my linen closet (all previously found from thrift shops), the duvet
on the master bed was a large table cloth I bought at a garage sale, now sewn
into a duvet cover.
The ‘Flower for Sale’
sign above the door was the best find. For reasons unknown to me trailer designers
put a slab of fabric above the door, which is tacky and unmovable! Amazing I found the sign at a speciality shop
on sale and it was light enough for Roger to hang it in his beloved trailer.
I did have to put my
style desires aside for the bathroom which has now been converted into a fortified
fortress all in hopes of keeping our two-year-old-Lachlan trapped… for nights
at least!
All’s Well that Ends Well
I am thrilled to say
we will be one Happy Marriage on Wheels after all!
