Rosie is getting close to being done...


I wanted so badly to take Rosie out for Memorial Day weekend but this year we have had more rain days then not.  I actually considered buying pontoons to add to her so I could go floating.  Anyhow I was able to work a bit more on her and this is what I have done.  Curtains have been added.  

Actually the curtains are dish towels held with cafe hooks.  

I also finished the floor tiles and added a black tile on the step up.  I like the contrast of that look.  

I took the stove out because to me it is a waste of space in a camper.  I plan on cooking outside and if I have to cook inside I purchased a induction burner that is much safer than an open flame.  Besides I don't want the camper to smell like food!  So what to do with a big hole in my counter top?  I found a cutting board and attached it to the counter with a hinge.  Now I can open it up and add storage above the fridge.  

The lighting has been an issue because I didn't want to put in a light switch so I needed something with a pull cord.  I found this little cutie at IKEA and it has its own electric cord.  I just drilled a small hole behind the fixture to hide the cord and threaded it into the cabinet.  It looks like it is a wired in fixture.....yay me!!



Now I have added a few decorations like the mirrors here on the side.  I don't know about you but I need to see how bad my hair looks before going outside even when camping!!

Now all I have to do is finish the electric....ugh yes I still don't have it done.  Add the AC and then the cabinet above the sink.  Then Rosie will be done!!
