I'm Fluffer-Nugget and I'm Proud!
So today the boys went off to day camp and I got a few hours to myself...Yahoooo! Decided it was time to paint on the Fluffer-Nugget's name on to the back of the Trillium. After searching for the font I wanted and the size, printed a copy off my computer and got to tracing it onto the back of the trailer. Used my sewing tracing paper to transfer the name and then painted two coats of Testors model paint....Worked great! Added a few rub on bug stickers I've been saving and....Voila! My master piece! Cheers! Emily

She is Fluffer-Nugget because she is green like a booger and plus it makes me and my family smile and laugh everytime we say it "Fluffer-Nugget"

That is friggen' hilarious. I never heard any of those things called a Fluffer Nugget before. I guess if you ever decided to change the name you could always go for Fluffer Nutter as that has a campy theme due to the marshmellow involvment:
Urban Dictionary: fluffer nutter
Great sense of humour Emily, just avoid truck stops and you guys should be fine

Alright Emily I love it when I see changes that make a trailer unique. I'm a bit of a rouser, don't particularly care what the factory did. They do things for the largest profit, not necessarily the best for owners. Doubtful they'd ever put a name like that on the outside.

Thanks Donna!
I too like making things my own...I figure if I paid for it, it's mine to do as I please and it pleases me to make it purdy!
On the weekend we (hubby and I) took out the crummy plastic organizer out of the closet and put in nice sturdy pine shelves....Ahhh shelves and drawers that work! Yahooo!
Just loading up the trailer to head out for three days with my boys...Please, PLEASE don't pour rain on us the whole time!
Cheers! Emily

Who in the name of all that is educated writes the "Urban Dictionary"?????? I looked up "Bean", and it, too had some very racy connotations. I thought to myself "gee, they just make up crud about any word!" To see if I was right---I just looked up "Floyd".. Yep, #4 is ridiculous!
So---I will continue to think of "Fluffer Nugget" as the happy, loving camper belonging to a fun-loving family--that I always thought of it as. And I think I'll stick with Websters!!!!

Well Fluffer Nugget's "tattoo" had to be upgraded....The insect stickers I used washed off after a couple of washes and so I spent the last couple of days painting my own insect creations.....Turned out pretty darn good if I do say so myself!
Enjoy!
Cheers!

Emily well done! Was actually wondering the other day how your name paint job held up with the model paint.... wondered if it had stood the test of time as I have a small project to do.

"I think our floyd fits definition #2 best (Urban Dictionary)"
The name Fluffer Nugget is very clever and the art work is outstanding . I wish I could do half as well but I have no artistic ability . My trailer is named after my grand daughter Olivia and I would love to paint her name on my trailer in the same manner as you did

The Testors model paint is holding up really well....I used the same paint on my stone guard when I repainted the Trillium logo at least two years ago....Not a chip or a fade....The stickers on the other hand (orginal insect stickers) didn't stick! Oh well, just gave me another opportunity to use my artistic flare
