I got the dog lights in! Yay!
Just a strip of LED's stuck to the slat of the bed, which run off batteries coz why wire them in 😉
Excuse the nosey parker that is Letty. 🙈

I also got the fairy lights on the ceiling. They're stuck up with command hooks but the sticky was gone from the bits you stick on so it's grey double sided tape used instead.

Got a couple of coats of yellow on the ply of the kitchen unit, that you see as you open the door. Went for a crazy green on the edges coz why not (i had all these tester pots from doing the bongo).
Mr F was here so he removed the pop-up shelf for me then put it back on.

Got the darker purple done on the lat by the dogs and on the bottom one in the kitchen side too.
Pink has been done on the electronics panel and the middle shelf front.

Got the visible bed/sofa slat painted today and the top lat of the kitchen unit. I also got the rear of the tall unit with a 1st coat and before I got to the side bit, the rain came down 😭
I was expecting rain so i didn't empty the van to do this, I just er.. reorganised it a bit so excuse the stuff everywhere 🙈

Got the side of the tall cupboard finished & the uncarpeted bit of the panel at the side of the van finished yesterday.
I also got the visible bit from inside done in dark purple (to hide scuffs). Those tubs are wedged in there & don't move when the van is in motion. It's quite handy!
It took ages to decide whether to include the raw edges of the tongue & groove but in the end I did them coz it would look odd (very carefully 😬)

Did a bit more painting when Mr F was around to supervise My Stuff. I had to empty the back of the van to do the end of the bed & the kids next door had a good rummage at the stuff in the grass before, so I can only do this when he's about to keep an eye on things. It's almost all done now.
I've the end of the lilac slat to do & a blue stripe between the pink & green.
I put a dark purple thick stripe along the yellow by the sliding door.
