For those of you that may not know, I moved out of a 1200 sq foot
Alexander Mid-Century home with a pool and into a 1988 Airstream Trailer which I renovated this past Summer/Fall.
I call my home The Silver Suitcase®
And, yes, my residence is in a Trailer Park.
Here's a taste of the before:
And here's a taste of the after:
I don't mess around.
I always had a fascination with the trailers growing up, so I thought why not give it a whirl? I'll live in the trailer for at least one year to get the full experience.
I had loads of fun making the airstream over and reactions from people have been huge.
One of the phenomenas of having a unique home is when I send out an invite to have guests over, my RSVP "Yes" rate hovers around 98%.
Having had so much fun, and receiving requests from clients and people from afar (Hi London!) I have embarked on doing a few more on my down days.
So, meet the newest additions to my Silver Suitcase® Family:
Silver Suitcase® # 2: My Baby 1966 Safari
Design is all in the Details, people!
Nice spare tire in the foreground
And here she is, cleaned out and with a base coat of paint
Paint really is the miracle drug.
Silver Suitcase® # 3:
1949 Spartan Mansion
This is a big undertaking, but I can't wait.
Renovation is really all in the attitude!
And finally, my summer cottage:
Silver Suitcase® #4:
1960 Park Model
Look at those bones, would you??
I just started on Baby Safari, and with a lot of work and some luck, I am hoping to have all three done by August at the latest.
Happy Travels, indeed.
