february 28, 2011 // home sweet trailer

Well, it's official. I'm living in my trailer. I found a family on (where else but) Craigslist willing to put me up in their driveway with an electrical outlet and use of their bathroom and kitchen - perfect! I really like my trailer. I spent about a week and half before coming back to Connecticut for the holidays solely working on getting the trailer in living condition. I cleaned it up, repainted the interior, decorated, got some scented candles for ambiance (and, of course, a smoke detector) and now it's as cozy as can be. Here are a few shots of the interior.

I found two of these great owl wall hangings at a Goodwill in Montana for something like $2.00 a piece. I've definitely seen something similar at Urban Outfitters for close to $40.00 each!

I love candles.. they just make me feel more at home. I made some lanterns out of mason jars, wire and twine. They were super easy to make and actually give off a good amount of light!

I got these postcards (art pieces to me...) for free at a local art walk a few months ago. I especially love the bear.

My friend Jason passed on these old photo slides to me. I've wanted to do something with them for a while, but wasn't sure how I could use them. The other day, I was holding one of the slides up in front of me. The sun from outside shone through the slide and made the picture visible. This gave me the idea of hanging the slides in front of one of my trailer windows.
