Someone....Please Stop Me!

"No more rocks, Lucy!"  You know this little line if you have ever watched "The Long, Long Trailer" with Lucille Ball & Desi Arnez.  Several weeks ago I quite trying to hide the supplies and decorating do-dads from Vernon.  The pile just keeps growing with bedding, appliances, storage containers, fans, art work and vintage collectibles.  I really need to get it out of the Man Cave and into my trailer.  Soon.....Toto's exterior makeover will be finished and she'll come home to get nicely outfitted.  Then off to camp we go!

New Benches Ready To Be Installed

Ooooh....Aaaah.  White vinyl benches are finished and look fabulous!  Master upholster-er James Jantzen (913.626.8979) stripped the original benches down to the bones.  The "V" design and piping came back to life in this fresh new version.  Thank you, James, for a job well done!

Choosing colors and finding inspiration in nature.


Something like this?


Voila!  The first sunflower has bloomed!

New Curtains Are Done!
  Meet Carol Miller and her young assistants (Carol's Custom Sewing & Quilting - quiltingmomof5@yahoo.com) .  She did a great job recreating the curtains that will hang in Toto's Tin Can.  Double-sided polka dots for a FUN look.
