Repainting the storage trunk

In keeping with updating my entryway I needed to add some finishing touches. I knew I wanted to add some type of wall tree. I decided to keep it a low budget project since I have other projects I need to spend a lot more money on in the future. I already had the blackContinue reading “Repainting the storage trunk”

RV Sheets Update

I finally completed one RV sheet. I just decided to sit and sew just to get it done. It came out great. The 1/4″ elastic in the ends and corners was a perfect fit. I had to buy a new set of knit sewing needles. Right in the middle of sewing the sheet the needleContinue reading “RV Sheets Update”

Painting the hallway wainscoting

Before I could paint I had to prepare the walls. I bought TSP concentrate and mixed it up according to manufacturers instructions. I also bought a spray bottle from Ace Hardware. What I liked about the spray bottle is that there are spaces to write in the contents you put in the bottle and anyContinue reading “Painting the hallway wainscoting”

Preparation

The RV has a leak in the back. We have to take off the roof and go in the back. Next week we begin Operation Fix-a-leak. This is a big job. There’s no doubt about it. The exterior needs a lot of TLC. The Forest River, Sandpiper decals are starting to peel off. I foundContinue reading “Preparation”
