Glamping with Mary Jane: Glamour + Camping Description
MaryJane Butters’ go-to guide for putting glamour into camping.
"Glamping, or glamour camping, one of the MaryJane's pet concepts, is about the juxtaposition of rugged and really pretty, grit and glam, diesel and absolutely darling."-The New York Times.
Glamping-unleashing your inner wild while wearing a pair of fishing-lure earrings-is for every woman (or man!) who ever had a get-away-from-it-all fantasy (with a few frilly embellishments thrown in). Learn about the never-fail campfire, cooking with cast iron, how to change a flat, and much, much more. Follow the growing Glamping movement at maryjanesfarm.org and nationalglampingweekend.com.
Like the infamous Calamity Jane, who said, “I figure if a girl wants to be a legend, she should go ahead and be one,” MaryJane Butters coined the term glamping years ago when she founded her unusual Idaho canvas wall-tent bed & breakfast, which was featured in The New York Times Magazine and Travel & Leisure as “the place to be.” Legend status achieved, MaryJane lives in Moscow, Idaho, where she runs her many businesses, which include a successful organic farm, product lines, a bed & breakfast, and MaryJanesFarm magazine. This is her fourth book.

If you're tempted to judge this book by its cover ... let 'er rip!
Here, you have a smart, sassy Jane who's ready for the world. Sunhat? Check. Kerchief? Check. Attitude? Yes, ma'am - AND she's got boots to match. Behind her waits her faithful steed: a vintage camp trailer that's road-ready and decked out in style (note the cute curtains in the windows). The image is all about adventure with flair ... leather meets lace ... and good old fashioned get-up-and-go girl power.
What you see is what you get.
Within the pages of this tidy volume, there is a visual feast of classic femininity, but don't let the frill fool you. A peek under the petticoats, and you'll discover what this travelling Jane is made of. She's fearless, striking out on her own into the great blue yonder. She's practical, attending to every conceivable aspect of comfort and safety. She's not afraid to ask questions - she wants to do this thing right. And, best of all, Jane's geared up to guide even the most inexperienced camper into the gorgeous, gutsy realm of glamping.
A reviewer before me hit the nail on the head when she called Glamping "a toolkit of creative ideas." There are tips, tricks, and tactics in this toolkit for every woman who loves the idea of getting outdoors on her own.
You'll learn step-by-step how to shop smart for your own vintage trailer, gussy it up (from guts to glory), hitch it, and haul it to the horizon.
You'll laugh your patootie off learning about the finer points of trailer toiletry. Again, it's a topic every savvy traveler needs to tackle!
From the nuts and bolts of tire checks and oil changes to the taffeta touches of fishing-lure earrings and flavored marshmallows, Glamping's got it covered.
