Compartments For The Safekeeping :)

Last week I sanded and painted the kitchen cabinets.  So far we have installed the upper cabinets.   I did prime the cabinets before I painted them.

I knew I wanted to paint the cabinets the color of these canisters that I have had for awhile.  I decided just to paint the doors, that way if I ever want to change the color it is easier than re-painting the whole cabinets. 
I always have left over paint so I decided to try and match it myself.  I think I did pretty good...
   
Pretty close

The cabinets are not real wood so I had to sand them... I think I put 3 coats of paint..  I expect it will scratch easy, but it is after all a camper.. a few scratches are okay :)







A before and later... can't wait for the AFTER

Silver Screen


I finally finished the screens for the trailer... this was NOT a fun job.  Happy to be done..... :)  





I did all the windows and door with this amount.

I bought new spline to use where needed

Used the old spline where I could

Finished window
I bought these to go in the windows that had the screen frames missing.  I ended up taking them back.  The picture below shows a little ridge that I used to secure the screen


The two windows missing the screen frame has small holes where screws were.  I am okay with them showing.  By doing it this way I saved around $50

Showing screen frame on left.  No frame on right
Screens are up
