Amanda,

I'm so confused... The before pics look like the front of the trailer, and the after pics look like the back of the trailer... Maybe what is throwing me off is the new plywood you have hiding the underneath storage... :scratchthinking:

Looks good!

Mike...
The quality is remembered long after the price is forgotten, so build your teardrop with the best materials...

Thank you everyone!
Mike, its the same corner. I changed the bunk so it no longer slides open, its just open full size. I also changed the floor space under the bunk so its a 'U' shape with two new cubbys.

Today I sanded around a good part of all exsisting trim and stained it. I also started on all the drawers. 3 sanded,stained and 1 coat of varnish. 4 to go! Pictures tomorrow.
I have also decided not to replace the sink. My new cookstove doesnt fit in the old space so it to will become a new storage space. I also cut out a new counter top for DH to tile! Busy busy woman today!!

Looking good!
No, the lists never seem to end. Your teardrop with kitchenette is like my kitchen which I'm currently renovating. The list never seems to end and at some point you just have to say, "good enough" and cross items off and move on.

Since I'm planning on selling the house, it just has to be complete, not necessarily perfect. Things I would say are horrible, others never notice, so I'm using that frame of reference for the house.
