I'm pretty sure my daughter and my Sweet Farmer thinks I'm going through a mid-life crisis. I just bought myself a 1963 Shasta trailer. She is mint condition and ready for the road. There was something about her that called to me, deep in my gypsy soul and so I brought her home to Krantz Farms. I have big plans for her during the winter - maybe some words painted on her, like "Passions of an Odd chick" or "Adventures of an Odd Chick" in a cute funky font with a flying chick here and there, or maybe I'll leave her plain and buff her up like a shiny tin can. Either way, I'll prepare her for an adventure soon.
She reminds me of a cozy little play house or gypsy wagon or a quiet, zen place to refresh.
She needs very little really. She looks like a happy place, doesn't she?
I added some art that speaks to me. And to my critics. :)
I added some of my own art. Who knows? Maybe I'll sell my art on the road.
It's not fancy but it's good enough for me.
I like little compact, efficient spaces.
My new little puppy, Gurdy, will be ready to travel with me by Spring.
I think there will be some good living coming from this space.
And some good stories to share on my blog. If you have any good ideas for my little Shasta, please share!

I can see why you fell in love! What a great little home on wheels. I'm thinking you could travel to all the art fairs, a gypsy artist and her caravan. Got to love it!
It's looking great. Just looking at it makes me want to look for one too. Great find.
What a wonderful find! It looks instantly like home. I hope you have many very happy times and adventures in her!
How Fabulous! Love your little Gypsy Wagon.
funny...I have been looking for a little camper I can glam up too!!!Love your gypsy wagon!
She's adorable! I have the bigger version...but there's a soft spot in my heart for Compacts. Keep posting about her!
WOW, Peggy...LOVE your new traveling wheels! A mini retreat. It's very sweet on the inside too--very cozy. I've always wanted one of those brightly painted wooden gypsy caravans. Maybe one day! Happy Trails! ;o) ((HUGS))
she is so cute and perfect for whatever life wants to do!
coincidentally[like minds think alike!] this morning i told my own sweet farmer that we needed to find a little used airstream for traveling to see our gkids and be comfy. i am sooooo jealous & hope you do share your journeys with us. xox
I'm laughing with delight!!!
This. is. so. COOL!!!!!
I absolutely love your little
space....my heart leaped
over every bit of it:)

Absolutely adorable! I've become smitten with such things of late, as well. I love perusing the used rv/campers for sale ads EVERY chance I get. You found yourself a beaut. I can't wait to hear the stories you'll tell.
what a fun space...I've always waned a little caravan too....
I LOVE your new passion. It is decorated so appealingly and of course you should take your artwork on the road. I'm so glad to have found your blog.
Oh I think it looks so pretty! I love these small ones!
Love that wagon! Love how you decorated, it's enchanting.
