Many of you are aware of my bedbug horror story. If you haven't read about my adventures with bedbugs, click here.
Now I'd like to let y'all in on a lil secret.... a certain blogger friend of mine renovates tiny, older, cute lil trailers and I'm here to tell ya, these adorable lil vintage trailers would certainly be the best preventive against a bedbug situation! I would love to buy one of these cute lil trailers someday... that way, I can BMOB when I travel... bring my own bed!!
Here's a '73 10-foot Bell trailer, which sold on Ebay for $4900. Sheryl's objective when gutting her trailers is to have a place to make the coffee when it's raining outside, a full-time permanent bed (no taking the table down!) and LOTS of storage. No running water (so have some bottled water on hand) or bathroom... these trailers have the basics, baby!

Here's that same trailer after Sheryl and her hubby have worked their magic ....
Can you just get over how danged cute this lil trailer is?! I adore it. What I really love is that Sheryl and her husband are breathing new life into something old. Instead of adding to our landfill heaps, this trailer is now living a wonderful and productive second life.
If you're interested in learning more about Sheryl's growing enterprise, please head on over to her blog, Ain't for City Gals. Send her a message and let her know you'd like to know more about her wonderful trailers.
