My home tour

Nothing like starting off my home tour with a messy bed. I want to tell you that when you cant walk around the bed its really hard to make them.


This is the opposite side of our bedroom. There is just about two feet at the end of the bed to stand and dress and such.



To the right is 1/2 of a shoe organizer that I had Jeff screw to the back of our bedroom door. Below that is a tv tray that hooks to the door too. I sit on the end of the bed and take the tv tray down and put my make up mirror on it and do my make up. You can see my make up mirror in this shot too.

This is 1/4 of the shoe bag which Joy suggested we put here beside the fridge with those command strip type hangers and then we filled it with cooking utensils. Wall space is just about as scarce as counter space is here in the RV.

I place my less used appliances above the cabinets. I went from 3 crock pots to one. I am sure as the weather cools I will have to tea pot down and on the stove because I will be using it more often.

This is the organizer we installed in the tiny bathroom. It takes up lots of space but we don't spend much time in the bathroom anyway. Just like we don't hang out in the bedroom because its very small too.

This picture is self explanatory I hope. The storage units we installed are above the toilet.

Here are the two units we installed to hold shampoo and such. The built in ones in the shower are just too little and things fall or get knocked off of them.

This is the big ole shower. Since we have a 6 gallon water heater we flip the switch on the shower head while we shampoo and lather up and such. As you can see we removed the glass shower doors and installed one of those bent shower rods and boy that has been super.

This is Mollie's side of the back bedroom. As you may be able to tell, we removed the top bunk and replaced it with shelves. That really opened up the room and gave her more storage. She decorated it how she wanted it.

This is Hannah's side of the room and she too has decorated it to her satisfaction. I bought the command hangers and the squish able type of stuff for them to use to hang stuff.

This is the living room with the new corner section installed on our sectional. We ended up getting rid of the foot stool but we are happy with this arrangement. It gives one more place to sit.

This is the other side of the living room with my small table where I do computer work. The kitchen cart holds our plates, bowls, and glasses. In the corner is the printer and some office type stuff we use every day.

The plates are from the old house and I think they make the place seem more like a home. Notice the cabinets with mirrors below the plates. One of them is Jeff's "office". When he wants me to get something out of there for him he says its in his office.

We are really enjoying living in our RV.

As you send me your home tours I will post them and also link to them on this post.

Fireside room in black & white

I didn't like the color in the preceding photo's so I thought I'd see if I could make them black and white. I almost like them better this way

Fireside room

This is the room I call the fireside room. It could also be called the formal parlor or tea room. I just got a new to me couch and love seat in a pretty floral design. They go perfectly this room. We don't use this room much except when we have company. I used to have several tables and chairs in here and would host tea parties and private dinners. The red hat group, the Aurora group, a Sunday school class and several couples have dinned here. After a year or so I quit giving the dinners and only had tea parties. After about a year or two of that I quit giving tea parties and made this into a formal room to receive company.

If you have the room like I do its nice to have a room that you can keep sorta fancy for guests. The family gathers in the school room/library/family room to watch movies or hang out.

I will be putting up tours of my house room by room. I have a big house so I am never able to have it all clean at once so I thought I'd just do room by room tours.

~Maria~ shares her kitchen.

~Maria~ has an unusual kitchen in that she has no upper cabinets. I was quite interested in how she made use of the space available to her. She has some innovative ideas for storage. I loved it.

Thanks for joining our kitchen tour ~Maria~

Mrs. Watts has joined the kitchen tour

Mrs. Watts has a lovely kitchen near a small town in California. I love seeing other ladies kitchens. The first photo that has that dog in it was neat. I thought the dog was a statue, how can she get it to pose like that? Its a real dog ladies.
I have decided to put the kitchen tour on my right sidebar and just highlight new ones and then add them to the side bar so if you are looking for a tour check on the right side bar.

My kitchen tour

The girls cleaning. They used a lemon fragrance oil in the soap water and it sure smelled good. As you can see, we don't have curtians in this room. We live in the country and so I only have curtians in bathrooms and for looks, not privacy if at all. We have curtians in the school room and I am always asking the girls to open them.

This is a view looking from the office into the kitchen. We use our kitchen all the time so it isn't just for fancy.

This is the view from the pantry. My pantry is BIG and I love it. I could use a room size pantry though.

The stove top and the counter with stools is where a lot of cooking, chopping, slicing and such goes on.

Straight ahead you can see my pantry. The fridge is on the very right side of this photo, then the dishwasher and then sink. Beyond the kitchen aid is a double oven. The ovens are very small and I had to get rid of many of my pans because they don't fit. The kitchen had carpet when we bought this house and kitchen carpet and messy me don't mix. It wasn't long before we took the carpet out and painted the floor. The floor still looked bad, even after being swept and mopped so we ended up putting this flooring down. We still have to get the edging put down and then it will be done. To the left is the office.
