WELCOME TO OUR VARDO!!!




                                                      WELCOME TO OUR VARDO!!!


 
 
 Siobhan and I are finally "all moved in"; we spend quite a bit of our free time in the caravan.  Liam usually remains in the house, cheerfully waving from a window now and then...
 
 
  We have not built the steps yet--the weather has been much too cold!
 
 
 
But our welcome sign is out...
 
 
 
 
 
Our caravan rules are posted by the door...
 
"Watch the sunrise, Listen to birds, Feel the breeze, Relax, Take a nap, Drink Iced tea"
 
 
We filled our wagon with antiques and curiosities, and all the necessities to make a vardo a home...
 
A lovely little woodstove for burning Irish peat, and a little  iron kettle for heating water...

                                                                       

An Indian spice box for tea bags, and a English tin for sugar...
                                                                             
                                                                                
A refrigerator for cream...



Comfy cushioned seats for sitting...


Favorite antique dishes for dining...
 
 
 
 
A sweet antique tea towel for drying...

 
 
 
 



A lovely antique oil lamp for lighting...
 
Soft mattresses for sleeping,  pin-tucked rosette comforters for warmth, and hand-made pillows for charm...



Books for reading, music for listening, art for contemplating...
 







Treasures to cherish...






Stories to tell...


 
Memories to share...
 
 

 
 
Friends are welcome here--Come and sit by our fire...
