Another fabric possibility ~ and a paint purchase!

I've been out fabric shopping again ~ well, I guess it's fabric hunting because I haven't actually purchased any fabric yet. I'm still trying to make a decision regarding putting black on the two side panels and this fabric on the top panel (span of 12 ' 6")?



I've thought about putting the white fabric (above) all the way around the slide but I'm afraid the side panels could possibly get dirty/grungy if hands repeatedly touched it. I still like the houndstooth for the top panel but still can't decide which fabric to use.

I purchased paint today at Sherwin Williams ~ yeah! White for the cabinets and Melange Green and Exclusive Plum for the walls.  Now the work definitely starts as I being painting ALL of the walls inside Dolly.

Ugly, outdated drawer pulls MUST go!

I've removed all of the doors, drawers and all of the hardware and we have 47 pulls and 56 (28 sets) of hinges. I found a great place for replacements that I'm going to use because I don't like the pulls in our MH and not even spray paint will correct how I feel about them! The company is Pulls Direct and they can be found here ~ Great place to find replacement hardware

Here are our current ugly discolored brass pulls (3" center to center) ~




This is what I'm going to order as replacement pulls. They are also 3" center to center but the overall length is 6" ~

Finally ... paint color palette selected!


I've finally decided on a paint color palette!  The colors I selected are ~

Melange Green 6710, Exclusive Plum 6263 and Extra White 7006 for all of the woodwork. All paint colors are by Sherwin Williams.  I'll use black as an accent color.


Now, for the fabrics ...


I'm trying to decide on whether to use solid black on the side panels and then a patterned fabric on the top (black/white combo) or vice versa, a patterned (black/white) fabric on sides and top or something else? I've gone to Hancock Fabrics, JoAnn Fabrics and another commercial/discount fabric store close to our home but I'm not finding any fabric that I love or that "speaks to me." I was a little rushed when I was at JoAnn so I'll go there again tomorrow and also to Hobby Lobby to see what fabrics they offer.

Decisions, decisions ...

I went to Sherwin Williams today and picked up a few (okay, A LOT) of paint color sample cards.  I'm still trying to decide what color(s) to paint the interior of Dolly.  The blue sofa cushion and chair in the background are from Dolly.  I need to pick the color(s) and get going on the updating.  Now, if the weather would cooperate and the temps get above 40 ... !



Lucky checking out the paint color sample cards.
Later this evening Lucky decided to come and lay on the paint samples
so she could get a closer look.  She likes to lay on her back ~ silly kitty!!

A couple of renovations I admire are ~





The RV renovation above was done by "Harborlizard" and listed on roomzaar.com.  It can be found at ~ Harborlizard RV Makeover and Harborlizard RV Makeover on Roomzaar.com.  Make sure you check out all three parts of her RV makeover posts.

The renovation above is not a RV makeover but still fabulous and has lots of great makeover ideas.  This makeover was done by Jeralyn and can be viewed on her blog at ~ Lemonade (Jeralyn) Kitchen Makeover.

I love the white cabinets in both makeovers and also the use of black and green accent colors in both makeovers and red in Jeralyn's makeover.
