We won't be able to truly start on building our caravan until after Memorial Day weekend, so right now we're just planning and researching. Fortunately, there are a lot of people who have documented what they've done with similar caravan projects.
Bow Top Caravans
Gypsy Caravan—One of the first blogs I found about building a caravan using The New Gypsy Caravan book, plans, and template. Also, probably the most detailed when it comes to adaptations made (an air conditioner unit!) and the building process in general.
SuperTroll's Bow Top Vardo—A variation of Lemke's bow top. There are a few pointers in his message board thread, but most of the documentation is in the photo album in the very first link.
Small Adventures—Yet another vardo builder following the plans from Lemke's book. He's at roughly the same stage we are at the moment: planning. (The Vardo label is just posts about the project; the rest of his blog is about SCA involvement.)
Woodsong's Vardo—A bow top with a twist: it folds down when not in use, as a result of space (and neighborhood) limitations.
Canvas Caravans—
Other Style Caravans
Rachel the Goatwoman's First Vardo—A pop-up, Ledge-style vardo. Her first one, which eventually lead to...
Rachel the Goatwoman's Second Vardo—...a second pop-up vardo. This time, designed so that just one person can raise it.
