A Clean Dash For The New Year

Hello, friends.  This week, we worked on touch up painting.  Joseph sprayed a few spots that got scratched, or needed a bit more paint, and I painted various edges with a small paintbrush.  He also painted the outdoor compartment latches, and polished one of the wheels that had become oxidized.  Having sat in a lot for several years, the dash was filthy when the bus arrived here.  The construction only added to it.  Joseph tackled that job this week, and it looks so much better.

My first attempt at creating a macrame cord to hold the stained glass bathroom window up was a big fail, and rather intimidating.  I finally put my big girl pants on, and tried a different tutorial.  This one was so much easier to follow than the first.  Though slightly wonky, I'm happy enough with the results to use it.  Joseph was concerned about the metal below the mattress rubbing a hole in it, with all the movement an RV entails, and decided to put a piece of  burlap between the mattress and metal.  He bought a large piece, and cut it to size. I helped him pin it, and it's ready to sew around the edges.  Happy New Year!
