Show-n-Tell

Wanna see the pillow covers we just ordered for the wheelie house's couch/bed? We're stuffing them with the fluff that we use for our art-making so that we'll have extra on hand without taking up all the extra space that the giant stuffing boxes would take up.

These adorable tea towels (from here) will become the kitchen curtains.


And here's a mock-up of the floor we just ordered from here. It's made of glossy vinyl tiles and we'll be putting it in ourselves in the back half of the wheelie house. 


Dylan spent yesterday with lots of black paint. Those things under the stool will become walls. Or maybe doors. I'm not sure. Dylan has plans for them, but I don't know what they are. When I ask, it all gets confusing. So I'll just show you when they're in their eventual place.


And here's a super cool vent/light/cupboard that Dylan made to go over the stove. Eventually, those little wires won't be visible. And there will be a backsplash in a pretty yellow-green color. 


We finally got cabinet pulls bought and put in. They're all mismatched, and one looks like a mustache (which makes me smile). We were able to find some of them at a salvage yard, but still had to hit Home Depot to get enough for every cabinet.

For the past couple of days, in between painting stuff, I've been making lots of thank you cards with little pins on them for our Kickstarter backers.


Lots and lots of cards! (And no, I don't have one of those die-cut thingies. Just scissors. And apparently patience.)

We really need to come up with a better name for the RV-- 
Wheelie House just isn't doing the trick. Any suggestions?

  1. How about the 'craft wagon' or 'rolling rover' or the 'horseless wanderer' or the 'wandering whimsy'... okay, I'll stop now, lol, loving watching it all come together :) x

  5. Pillows are brilliant! Love dual purpose stuffs.
    I had a thought, if you start feeling like you have tooooo many pillows and still need stuffing storage you might be able to compress it. Like with one of those bags that you roll up or use a vacuum to suck the air out of or...something..just it's pretty compressible so you might be able to carry even more.
    Everything looks so cool!!!!!!
    Can't wait to see your new floor in. :)
