Interior Updating

We have been doing a lot of updating to the inside of the 5th wheel over the past few weeks. Lots of Amazon shopping!! We ordered a new roller blind for the back bay window from www.blindchalet.com It came last week and John installed it on Saturday. I love it. It's got a day sunscreen and a blackout shade for total privacy. It's not remote controlled but you just give a little tug on the blind and it goes up or down. A huge improvement over the fabric vertical blinds we had before. The shower enclosure, hardware and mirror frames are all brass and it really dates the interior. So, we are replacing it all with satin nickel. I ordered cabinet pulls and hinges from Amazon and John has been installing them over the last two weekends. It is so hot here right now that he can only work in the early morning for several hours before it becomes unbearably warm inside. The bar pulls are for the kitchen cabinets and drawers, the pantry and the bathroom cabinets. The rest are for the overhead cabinets in the living area and the dresser drawers. Also got new wall sconces and a ceiling fixture from Camping World this morning. I think it will make a huge difference when the last of the brass is gone.
I also ordered a new faucet for the kitchen sink. It's Indi by Moen. I found it on E-Bay and it was $50 less than Home Depot.
The next projects are all big ones; replacing the flooring and a new electric awning. Those will have to wait until fall.
