It’s the Little Things

This may not look like much to you, but to me it means that the pop up store is one step closer to being road ready. It took about three hours to do the backsplash in the kitchen/till area - half of which was washing down the portion directly behind the stove with TSP, rinsing, and air drying three separate times just to cut the grease before applying the tiles.

This area took just under four squares of the stick on tiles that I bought from one of the local dollar stores. The remaining tiles can be seen on the counter in front of the sink. If you’ve considered buying those tiles but wasn’t sure about the adhesive, I can tell you right now that it sticks immediately so be careful when placing your tiles. Also, there is a definite left/right up/down to the tiles which I didn’t realize until it was too late. If you zoom in above the stove you will see where there is no ‘grout’ between the tiles because I butted up two ‘grout less’ sides together. I’ll know better next time. If there is a next time. Meanwhile, learn from my mistakes. That way, I won’t have made them in vain. 😉

My last modification in the RV will be in the bathroom and, yes, it needs to be done before I hit the road because I will even have some stock in there. For those of you who stitch, my floss and tapestry yarn will be kept in organizers in the shower and the tapestries (yes, I still have canvasses for sale) will be on a shower curtain rod and on full display when the door is opened.
