Cold Weather Damper

The weather is getting a little chilly these days and working in the RV without any heat might prove to be a little challenging.  So with this in mind I might break down and go out and get myself a portable generator so I can plug the RV into it and provide myself with a little heat during my working visits to my home.

This is especially important since I plan to apply paint and wallpaper to my new crafting area and in order to finish off the bed-side cabinet as well.  A little heated comfort will be a nice bonus to working on and getting my modifications to my home, my RV as near as complete as I can.

I'm currently in between jobs and would really like to find a way to work for myself and take my life on the road so I'm kind of throwing it out there, out to fate as to where my income will come from.  I'll let you know that I consider myself a craft's person and a little bit of an amateur ventriloquist.  Surely, I can use these talents and tools as a way of earning my keep on the road.  What do you all think?

Happy Camping!

RV Storage

Hello my darlings.

Well as David and Eugene go about their business of planning and only planning at this stage the necessary repairs to our little old RV I have come up with more ideas to increase our storage capabilities inside her.

Since Eugene and I take up very little space we shall convert the bed-over-cab area into storage space. Mr George over at the Tioga George blog built cupboards in that space but I feel more inclined to put in a couple of wire racks I came upon the other day while looking at closet organizers. The racks could hold a variety of stuff most of which I believe will be much if not all of David's craft supplies. He makes great looking handcrafted greeting cards you know and he has even sold a few. Check out his site here: Odds n Ends Scraps & Crafts. Keep in mind that his site is a work in progress.

By utilizing this bed-over-cab area as storage space for the crafts it will free up all of the other cupboard and closet space for clothes, books, and miscellaneous items. I will discuss this with David and Eugene and see if it is a feasible solution before I celebrate my plan.

David had some ideas to change the look and feel of the RV but he has since given up that department to me so I have been busy scouring over his ideas and will keep what I like and discard the rest. He has some good ideas and I do like the wallpaper and border selection he picked up a while back. It should work just fine and I think the rustic faux wood panel wallpaper is a super choice. So for me I think paint and fabric are all that I need to deal with at this point in time. Good for you David, not bad at all.

Well I need to get back to my cards, no not handcrafted greeting cards but rather Tarot cards, I just love laying out tarot cards. See you next time I make an effort to log in. Luv you all. . .Edith
