I'm not sure what makes it camping vs glamping (yes, I know it's glamour and camping) but I don't consider myself a glamper. I'm simply a collector of useful vintage items. If it happens to look nice at the same time, oh well. Attachments:

Glamping can also include wearing dresses and aprons while camping. I have fun with a variety of aprons, sun dresses, and of cowgirl boots! Riverbend picture.

To be honest, glamping has a wide broad definition that can be applied in many situations if one chooses, or not chooses for that matter. Some consider glamping to be a resort where you sleep in a yurt on a tropical island with catered meals and 300 thread count sheets. Others think of it as vintage trailers with sassy interiors and awnings. I like to think of myself as some sort of glamper. We always eat the best food, we are never without a cocktail, we sleep in a really comfortable bed, and invite guests to our tablecloth covered picnic table for entertaining games and appetizers. Is that glamping? I'd like to think so. Maybe perhaps because I'd like to think I was a bit Lucille Ball from Long Long Trailer.

I agree with maj. It's camping, but with the extra little niceties. If you have a cocktail shaker, stemmed glassware, anything with embroidery or a tiny crystal chandelier, you might be a glamper.

Kristi I was going to become a glamper but I think I would look funny in a dress and apron with my cowboy boots since am a 6'6" 350 lb. man.

You might be a glamper if you require more than hot dogs for dinner.

If anything in your trailer is pink or trimmed in lace, you might be a glamper.

Have you folks seen the Corvette Camper in vikx collection? GLAMPER GLAMPER GLAMPER!!!! All joking aside, my definition of glamping (glamorous camping) is, lace, china, crystal and soft feminine colors. I think everyone has their own definition of what glamping is. I don`t believe I`m a glamper as I don`t believe that my definition of a glamper would worry about how useful or serviceable an item in their camper is, which I do. My definition of a glamper, only thinks about staging and how an item looks. I do intend glamping this 63 1500 to a certain extent but because we camp and fish a lot, I`ll make sure that everything we add to her will be usable and not just for decoration purposes. Oh except the chandelier ;)LOL

It's not my trailer! I didn't decorate it! The Corvette is popular at the rallies. The Glampers sell him things: A LOT OF THINGS. LOL. Cowboy: lunch boxes, pillow, cups, rope, boots, ceramic tiles of the trailer, you name it.
I did do the upholstery and curtains as a present.
Once in a while, I get original eyebrows as a reward.. And polished windows! Yeah man.
