Gypsy Vardo Anyone?

Posted on May 29, 2011 at 11:32 AM

All of us artist folks are a little bit gypsy.  Especially if you do the Ren Faires and such. I have been thinking of getting a little pop up camper to make doing fairs that are a little further away possible.  But now I am coming up with a plan to embrace my inner Gypsy.  I want to build a Vardo.  One that could double as my merchant booth while vending at festivals if the theme is appropriate. 

 

Will I even really finish this project who knows.  Right now it is just and thought.   I am in the initial planning stages.  Trying to come up with a design and floor plan that meets my needs.  And trying to do so in a way that is tow-able by my car.  I have lots of ideas but there will be a lot more research involved before I commit to any kind of major undertaking. 

 

My biggest question at this point is how do you register such a vessel with the DMV.  "Um excuse me sir I would like a tag for my Gypsy Wagon"  I can see that going over as well as the time I went to the post office ship a bunch of packages from my Etsy sales wearing a shirt that says "HAZARDOUS MATERIALS" right across the front.

I believe it licenses as a trailer from what I've read on the net as most who build them use trailers. Try searching Google for vardo or "Rachel the goat woman" for ideas.
