Come on in and take a seat in the cozy retro diner of the pearl
even parked in our driveway it is fun to sit out in 'the pearl' for a cup a tea
we can play some music

let me go into the kitchen and see if the tea is ready

this is where the water for tea is brewing
in our vintage coffee pot

and if you've had too much tea...follow the crescent moon to the potty

I hope you all enjoyed having tea with me in our Vintage Cottage Camper.

Sweet wishes for the day. ox~ Fairmaiden

Meet 'the pearl'...


She's our 1972 Timberline wee vintage travel trailer. Just two years shy of being 'true' vintage...but none the less vintage to us. She is a 12 footer with two double sleepers, one twin bunk, four seated dining, kitchen, potty,hardwood floors and lots of storage. She is always packed and waiting for a trip to the coast. We named her 'the pearl' after my Great-Grandmother Nora Pearl. Her name suites her well because she is somewhat of a beach cottage on wheels... and pearls are found in the sea. We also have a crush on Jack Sparrow captain of 'the black pearl'! She still needs lots of work *tlc*. The Carpenter plans on renovating her someday...before the side falls off from water damage! She is the only beach cottage we can afford...living 2 hours away from the sea makes it easy for us to slip away for some seaside living.Cozy Coastal Cottage living gypsy~style.
