THE traditional trailer is given a makeover to get in touch with its feminine side under the direction of MaryJane Butters.

Adding some glamour to the camping experience with creative decorations, additional comforts, and a sense of style gave birth to "glamping." Author MaryJane Butters embraced this approach to the outdoors and came up with a delightful companion guide.
