Her own private Narnia, she calls it.

Here is what we had to work with....

 The trailer itself.  This is how it came to us from Idaho.  We have not touched much of the outside, except to add new tires and rims, change the propane tanks, and fix leaks on the roof. So it still looks much the same  complete with the fancy go faster gold racing stripes!.

If you enter the trailer and take a right you face the front and this is what you used to see. The kitchen on the left, an old fridge on the right and the two bed cot things at the front. The curtains were hideous, and the faux paneling wall paper was peeling. The floor was covered with some smelly old brown indoor outdoor carpet which was torn and shreading up bits of fiber everywhere.

If you walked to the beds and turned around you'd be facing the back of the trailer.  Thats a bathroom sink directly in front at the very end with a bathroom on the right and a closet on the left. Note the awful plastic light fixtures and more peeling wall paper.

Still standing in the same spot, but turning slightly to your right you are now facing the kitchen. Pretty plain. But Jacqueline fell in love with the vintagey green stove and based most of the rest of the redesign on working with it's color.

Now just turn to the left and you are looking at the fridge directly across from the kitchen. You can really see the nasty brown carpet  and loads of peeling wall paper in this shot. Note the heater down there by the floor. It still doesn't actually heat anything, but we are working on that!

And the last shot of what we had to work with when Daddy broght it home...the bathroom.  Nice toilet, eh?  And get this, it had been placed on top of a plywood floor, with no hole cut in it.  In other words, you better not actually want to use that lovely gold toilet, because your doings would have no where to go! The..err...special striped wallpaper, once stripped, revealed awful wood damage to the walls from a leak in the roof.  Its still there, but fixed up as nice as we can and wont get any worse since the leak is repaired.

And now, here is the new, much adored Gypsy-Fairy-Hippie_Love Wagon of Toadstool Farm!

Now, as you stand inside the door and face right you see this...

The two cots have been joined to make one giant bower, fit for an Elven Lady, complete with feather bed and duvet covered in soft white.  The hideous curtains were replaced with white Battenburg lace ones that give the illusions of bigger windows by not only allowing more light to come through, but by hanging longer.  The side windows have been topped with beaded floral garlands which has been intwined with battery operated twinkly lights to add a bit of fairy glow at night.

Jacqueline has tossed pillows of all shapes and sizes at corners of the new extra large bed. She left the stand alone table up and built the bed round it, in order to have a nightstand of sorts.  behind that, all along the front wall, was a ledge under the big window.  Jacqueline uses that as a bookshelf.

Turning to face the back again, you see the rest of the trailer.

The entire inside has been painted the softest shade of yellow you can imagine.  Its so pale, it looks white until something truly white is next to it.  This lovely shade makes the inside glow with light during the day, and adds the warmest golden glow at night. The floors have been recovered with a faux brick pattern vinyl on which Jacqueline has tossed some ivy decorated sissel type rugs.

In the bathroom once more and we see a real live working toilet, with a hole in the floor even! And in a much more pleasing shade of solid bright white.  The old wallpaper is gone, and you can see the evidence of that bad leak.  But it's softened by the pretty lacey shower curtain and soft yellow towels and basket of bathing goodies at the base of the shower. The plywood floor has been removed and we now have a floor covered with the same faux brick vinyl.

Facing the kitchen we see the pretty new rustic light fixtures, the curtains again and the swinging bell that chimes for the fairyfolk whenever the trailer is in motion. On the wall to the right you'll see a mini print by one of Jacqueline's best fairy artist buddies, Selina Fenech! It's not very clear in this picture, but the piece is called Rose, and it's one of Jacqueline's favorites by Selina, because it features, what else, a horse!

The trailer at night..unfortunately by camera flashlight.  Its not the same effect as when one sees the trailer truly by candle and fairylight, but still, we thought we'd show you anyway.  A cup of hot cocoa warms on the stove and a glass of golden honey mead sits on the counter.  Jacqueline's bed is comfortably rumpled and somewhere out of sight sits a book waiting to be read. 

And so we'll leave you to your own imaginings and hope that maybe this glimpse of Jacqueline's mobile fairy world has inspired you to your own travels.  Anon!
