A Place to Lay Your Head ...

On to making the bed ... we needed it to use a regular mattress and be queen size. It also had to be a sound structure cause Daddy 💕 is always worried about his weight being on it ... then add me and two dogs ... we needed to guarantee that we didn't fall through! 😱

Remember that wooden thing from the other day? This is where it comes into play! We're using it to create storage space. There are matching "bracers" on both sides ... the box is centered on the bed space.

Slow progress but I have to be meticulous to insure that the bed comes out perfect! As you can see, the sun was beginning to not cooperate anymore 😮

This is where we've decided to place the potable water tank ... it can be accessed from the garage area in the back. We'll be creating a cut-out on the outside that has a city water and gravity inlet.

Hey! It's a box! LOL I was serious about the stability!

It took two days to finish out the bed but I got it done! I salvaged some of the metal bracers from our old RV to place over the top of the potable water tank ... the fan is because we're in Texas and it's already in the uppers 80s!

Until next time! 

Happy RV'ing!

The Wheels on the Bus ... Box #2

We decided to use a part of the tire wheel for our shower on the driver side, so this box is a bit bigger than the one that covers the passenger side. I wanted a seat for those times I want to s-h-a-v-e .... duh! LOL

Didn't take a lot of pictures but it really isn't that in-depth. We used 2x2s and 2x4s for the shower. The actual shower part is made with the 2x4s.

As you can see, the vanity sits on top of the passenger box. That tank is our potable water tank, and the wooden thing ... it goes under the bed and you'll get to see it in action soon!

We didn't do a lot of work, these boxes kicked my back side LOL

Happy RV'ing!

The Fun Stuff! Passenger Wheel Well

Hello everyone!

We finally got the plywood down on the floor and getting the box for the vanity sink done! Uber excited that we are making progress!

We built this box out of 2x2s, 1/2" plywood and standard pink insulation. It's strong enough to hold the lightweight mdf already built vanity that we purchased from Home Depot. It was on clearance for $65! It's a perfect color of gray to match the color scheme and the sink is small so that I'm not tempted to over fill it LOL

I will say that you should NOT use 2x2 for anything other than the flooring. It is just too fragile and cracks A LOT 😒 If I had it to do over, I'd use 2x4s for everything ...

This is the standard pink panther insulation. It worked better than the foam boards and will hopefully provide a bit more insulation.

The beautiful vanity we purchased with my gorgeous granddaughter, Renezemee photo bombing!

Thanks for following along! Happy RV'ing!

The In-Between #5

It's time for another square in Freedoms special blanket! This is #5 of the Moogly CAL 2017. I loved this one! It feels small but it says 12" ... cross your fingers it blocks well!

 

Happy Hooking!!

Finally ... Plywood on the Floor

Hola RV'ers! I am so excited that we finally got plywood laid out! *snoopy dance* No more words needed ... just bask in the glory of PLYWOOD!

 

Oh ... don't miss the fact that Daddy 💕 was SUPERVISING muhahahahahaha 

Happy RV'ing!!!

Facepalm ... More PINK Stuff and Screens

Heya RV'ers! If you want to insulated your floor or walls, DO NOT use the pink board LOL No really, it wasn't that bad once I started pre-measuring and Daddy 💕 used the saw-saw. Took two days and guess what? It's DONE! Yay!!

Yes, yes ... Io'lana photo bombed!

 

Was trying to figure out how to cover the windows while they were open, I LOVE fresh air 😛 So I bought a screen kit and BAM! We have screens. It uses the existing ledge on the windows and the pull tab allows us to remove it easily. Then you lower the window and replace it by popping it back into place.

 Happy RV'ing!

Wedding Time ...

Our youngest is getting married today! Gosh ... is it that time already? They decided to have a small ceremony so that he can get the paperwork done for enlisting in the Army ... so a pre-wedding to the wedding LOL

We'd like to welcome Greg and Rene to our family! We are so happy to have you around to keep Madisen so happy! 💋

Life and weather keep getting in the way of working on Freedom ... oh well! We'll get there soon!

Happy RV'ing!!!
