I've been doing some reading on the web and finding many interesting sites on Gypsy caravans. I thought you might enjoy checking some of these sites out. One I came across today is for a gypsy wagon for sale. It's a pretty cool looking home on wheels. You can check it out at Traditional Gypsy Wagon. In these tightening economic times, one of these just might come in handy.
Then there is the build it yourself kind, if you or someone you know is handy with tools. This D I Y web site has links to other interesting sites as well. You can check this one out at Tiny House Blog or here. This web site has photos of some very sweet gypsy caravans
as well as a video of a tiny house. I think you'll like them.
And our last site is one on foldable homes! That's right, a house that folds up. You can view these at Habitaflex.
which is also from the Tiny House Blog page. This Habitaflex page also has a video that shows how easy it is to fold and unfold this house.A lot of links on this page too.
Check these out for starts. I'll give you more in another post further on down the road. : )
Meanwhile, happy trails to you all !

great post, I would love to have a gypsy caravan in the garden to sit and while away the time in
you know, in my house in england, down the road from us, a real gypsy caravan turned up and camped for a while, the local residents were up in arms...I loved it

Hi Sarah!
Thanks so much for dropping by and leaving your sweet comment. I enjoyed reading about the real gypsy caravan that parked down the road from you! I'm with you...I'd love having that happen. I'd probably go down and invite them for tea. : ) I also like your idea of having a caravan in your garden to hang out in. Now that would be real sweet. Thanks again for dropping by. Hope to see you again.

I have an old garage in my garden that needs to come down as it is never used the drive is too narrow. I think an old gypsy wagon would look splended in its place, and considering I am from Gypsy stock, maybe one day I will have my dream !!!! Thanks Colette for a dream...

Hi Linda!
So nice of you to stop by.
Wouldn't that be great to have a Gypsy wagon in the garden!? That's a great dream! I hope one day it does manifest itself for you. You might like to check out -
les roulottes de la serve, just for some ideas to feed your dream. They have a photo gallery of some beautiful wagons. Interior shots too.
Come again!
