No i'm not getting married and yes i know i'm now obsessed with vw campers. Understandably so. But if i was getting married i would want a white one as my wedding car - how cool!

.

Not the usual white wednesday but i'm still trying to name her....

.

Choices are.... STELLA (still), DARLA (buffy fans will get this) and EDIE (as in sedgwick)

.

I'm now leaning towards Edie, she feels like an Edie.... please someone decide for me!! Can you imagine what i'd be like naming a baby...

bookish

I like the word bookish. Bookish. Anyway... i thought i'd share some more pics from one of my other fave interior design books, the home modernised, again by andrew weaving. I think i may have bought this one from ikea, they do have some good books instore so worth a look.

.

More modern retro interior book pics here

.
Please excuse the blurry photos..... too much wine during the photography process maybe :)

happy friday

I love this pic, looks happy and retro (and i'm sure it's just the long sleeved brown polo neck that makes it look retro...!) Happy friday :)

camper crazy

As promised, more pics of our beauty. I am almost decided on calling her Stella, but change my mind all the time. Maybe Freda. Maybe Emmy. Or maybe Stella.

.

These were taken while we went away - remember she is uncustomised still and needs my loving touch...

.


.

Since taking the photo above we have put on the original style 70's black number plates, which look soooo much better.

.

Also the pic above shows the (vile) blue seat covers inside and the pic below is just with a good old ikea throw covering them. Oh and the (equally VILE) curtains - they need to go. I am also changing the beech floor to walnut or parquet if i can find a vinyl version, and will probably change the cupboard handles too.... hmm what else....

Photos will keep coming as i customise her :)
.

The photos below are from bug jam, a yearly vw event at santa pod - my idea of HEAVEN. Just look at them all....!!

.

Rat look campers....

.

Not forgetting the old favourite vw beetle complete with vintage suitcases!

Often now if i search for my white pictures, google actually brings up my own white wednesdays in the search results! Which is nice i guess but slightly inconvenient... lol

sneak peak

There's something really inviting about this home from design*sponge, i love it - that sofa is gorgeous and the bedspread!

quickie

Beautiful polaroid style pic.
.
Guess what? I am now the proud owner of a 1970's vw campervan!! Oh yeah. She's mine. All mine. We have been away in her for the last few days, which is why i've been so quiet. I'm feeling really shattered so only a quickie for now, more later, pics too :)
