So Far, So Good

It is far too cold to work in the garage lately, but the last dinette cushion arrived earlier this month.  I'm in love with how nice it all looks.  I'm still waiting on the sofa cushion covers but the fabric for that was delivered last week; it'll likely be a few weeks before that's completed.  I'm somewhat nervous about purchasing fabric without having seen it in person.  I went with Crypton performance fabric.  It is stain, odor, and moisture resistant as well as being planet-friendly.  I'm not affiliated with them in any way; it's just the fabric I chose and why I chose it.  

I've slowly been acquiring items for our "everyday" life in the camper: unbreakable glasses, bamboo dinnerware, nesting bowls... all of which will have to wait for a different post.  The bed ends are slowly coming together as well, but since I can't really set up both ends in the garage right now, those will have to be saved for later, too. 

What I've done so far:
  • painted the cabinets
  • painted the T-trim
  • painted the stove cover
  • painted the table support
  • painted the steps
  • covered the counters and tabletop
  • covered the bed end trim
  • made privacy curtains for the bed ends
  • cut and reinforced the dinette area rug for the table support
What I have left to do:
  • cushion/insulate bed end bases
  • repair mattress cover
  • find a storage container that will fit under the sofa
  • find storage containers that will fit under all benches
  • cabinet organizers
  • figure out the refrigeration situation (look into the professional repair of the fridge)
  • replace camper brakes

This is what the Apache looks like so far:

We're getting there.
