Well, we got our Bed installed

Got our windows installed, well, 6 of the7 windows. We are missing the window skirt on the rear window. Waiting for the piece any day.

We got the backsplash cut and installed as well! Making progress.

We just need to install curtain rods, get new tires, get last window on, get eyebrows on, and....oh there’s a list to do before our very first trip on Oct 17!!!

So we got the eyebrows on, got new tires and one wheel studs are stripped so working on that.
Got the curtain rods made that look like Jewels (Go David!!!)
My mom made the curtains from Drop Cloths. I love them.
I finished the stove, but after extensive research I JUST heard that the paint I used, high heat BBQ paint could still be toxic 🙄🙄😩😩I’m so mad. So looks like I’ll have to strip the stove AGAIN & start all over again so frustrating. Ugh. It looks nice though!
Oh, and my husband built a rock guard. The center part will be birch wood that has the logo laser burner into it. It’s still at the shop getting customized. Will be done in a few days.
We leave in 24 hours for our maiden voyage in the Jewel 💎!!!

Thank you for posting the pics and for keeping us up to date on your progress. You’re going to have so much fun this weekend! Jewel is precious!

I hear you on the stove paint issues, I’m having the same problem with mine too. 😣

I’m wondering...what is the “indentation” between the sink and the counter supposed to be used for? Is that where the stove is supposed to go?

Thanks for your nice comments and encouragement
