More Decor

Curtains are next on the agenda. 

Oh, how I can procrastinate making curtains!

Check out those owls.

They were a yard sale find over the weekend and covered a place where the trim was missing.

The percolator is in place!

Vintage camper magazines ready for relaxing and finally reading.

So far, I have only skimmed the pictures. 

 

Reproduction tin pop bottles bought at an auction.

The colors in these were perfect,

the red and blue ones of the set went to Shawnee.

View front to back.

And a better view of the flooring!

I was so trying to keep the old linoleum,

but that was not meant to be.

The new tiles look much better anyway!

 

There were more pictures,

Blogger is giving me fits!

A LIttle Glitch

And some fun decorating.

The little glitch happened on Monday.

JWS was working on the door

that would not shut easily.

Hinges off, hinges on, hinges off,

hinges on and it worked.

Beautifully.

He said you could shut it with one finger.

He said you could shut it with your tongue.

Not sure I want to go there.

He checked the keys.

They worked.

He threw the keys all on the table.

Walked out,

pushed the door shut,

and...

you guessed it!

Locked tight!

We thought of scenarios,

I tried every key we had.

I mentioned taking out the roof vent and dropping Logan

through the roof.

Honestly, I think we could have done that.

He would have thought it was a Mario move

and

would have loved it!

Finally,

we ripped a screen and got them out.

Another fix on the list.

 

See the dinette above.

After much procrastination,

I finally got the covers made for the cushions.

Sometimes the apprehension of a job

is actually worse than the job.

 

 

 

A little more decorating.

Those lovely wall plaques showed up on my porch one day.

I love them and they were the perfect touch for the kitchen

Thanks so much, Bonnie and Linda!

You gals rock!

I just laid this material over the couch cushions..

and then someone sat on it.

Shouldn't I have fixed that prior to the picture?

Curtains are next

and

new cushions and covers for the couch.

My wallet needs a breather though.

I have the material for the curtains...

it is raining here today,

curtains may happen tonight.

And my pennants. 

I love these, may have to make some more.

This is sitting in our garage that we use to make signs in.

Hence, the campaign signs everywhere.

 

Last night, I started the new floor.

Decisions.

Finish the floor or start the curtains?

Paint the bathroom or keep cleaning up the outside?

 

Quite the project list I have.

 

Spring is Coming!

And I really need to get back to my

 "little" project

in the garage.

It has been a bit of a rough winter.

I had such big plans to have this camper

done early in the spring.

Actually, by now.

Instead, there the poor girl sits

all lonely and deserted.

At least she is in where she is warm.

For those of you that don't follow

the chaos

anywhere else,

Starting in November,

life took some twists and turns,

and in January,

we lost my mother-in-law.

Soon after that,

we welcomed a new little baby

to our growing collection

of grandchildren

and

not long after that

I spent two weeks in Ohio.

with my Mom very sick.

I know that we can't predict the future,

but I am very hopeful

that I will have time this month

to work on my camper

and

hopefully have it ready for a

short

close to home

May camping trip.

Feet up at a campfire,

relaxing with friends,

camping trip.

The picture above

was a gift that I found on my porch yesterday.

What a great addition to my 70's decor!

Motivation I needed to get back to work!

Thanks, Bonnie and Linda!

 

This little fan was found at an

estate auction the other night.

Cleaned up,

it will be perfect sitting in the camper

and

it does actually work!

 

Not the safest thing,

I think it will be more of a conversation piece

than functional!
