Louis Dean and I have been hard at work in our camper these days!
It is a Fleetwood RV
A 2000 model in which Louis Dean lived for 4 years.
Apparently he had parked it under a tree from which the rain went right in the vent behind the refrigerator. A section of the floor was badly damamged.
Not to worry!! I have NEVER seen anything Louis Dean can't fix!!
The camper will be sturdier than the day it was built!
He just has to take a break every now and then......
While HE was working - I was cleaning and 'fluffing!'
I didn't get to the wallpaper border to the left of the little sofa so
that's on my schedule for tomorrow.
That's about as far LEFT as I can go before LD finishes what he's doing.
I love my pretty little corner!
My new pillows from Hobby Lobby make me smile!
I bought two new bed pillows but ended up putting them in some denim cases I already had and tucking them in at the corners of the loveseat. I will buy MORE for the bed next time I'm out! I do so love pillows......all kinds of pillows!
I like the valence I came up with using leftover denim from the cushions
(which came from Pottery Barn curtains given to me by my friend who has triplets!)
and I added a jean band with raffia bows. I have been using raffia from this HUGE basket I have had for YEARS!! Would you believe my basket is nearly EMPTY??
I.must.buy.more.
I was bound and determined to use some vintage pins and finally found THE perfect spot for my daisy! Yes, way back then (60's) I was a flower child!
Now, lest I leave you with the impression that the camper is habitable -
This is to the right and in front of the seating area!
Stuff is stacked everywhere!
And THIS will one day (hopefully in the near future!) be my cozy little kitchen!
We have a ways to go......
But before I close I MUST show you a few recent pictures of my GRAND Quads!!
They are the reason we are doing this camper re do anyway!!
Logan is the final one to be moved to a crib!
Love that zebra blankie!
Big Boy Harrison!!
Trystan! They look so big in clothes!!
Kailey!! I am missing these babies!
Closing with this final picture of Logan......
(because you couldn't really SEE her in that crib shot!)
It's been a productive day around here working on our
'Home TWEET Home!'
Hope it's been a good Monday in YOUR neck of the woods!!
I love the camper! Can't wait till you get the kitchen all "Linda-ized!"

ReplyDeleteYou both, are doing beautifully! He is a super fixer upper. And you are a super fluffffffer-uppppper. What you've done, is sooooooo cute!
ReplyDeleteCute pics of the Quads. But here I go again, being Ol' Auntie. Who doesn't want to put babies in big-clothes, till...... Mmmmm... When they turn 2 maybe???? -giggggles- No! Just kidding. But I do so love babies to be babies.
I had to steel myself to not pout, when my d-i-law put little "Gabe" in tiny overalls. -gigggles-
But now, he looks super cute in everything. :-) Oh golly, imagine keeping quads in little ones clothing! :-))))))))))
HAPPY FULL THUNDER MOON, July 3rd.!!!
