Re: [A/S] Interior Decoration



I did a bunch of stuff to my 25 foot Excella.  

I changed all the hardware.  I hated the cheap looking shiny gold pulls.  
Replaced them all with nice brass handles.  I changed the shiny shade pulls 
with silver and brass star conchos... they have Chicago screw backs so I just 
bought larger screws to hold them on.

I have a double bed in the back.  I bought a twin size comforter and matching 
bed skirt.  The comforter fits right to the back wall and drapes down the 
length of the mattress height in front.  I vut the bedskirt and covered the 
headboard and both window valences.

In the living room I got another comforter to cover the couch and matching 
sheet which I cut and used to cover the arms. 

I have pictures and posters on every wall area where I could fit them.   I 
bought a lamp which I placed in the living room.  The lamp light is so much 
nicer than the overhead light.

I had a satellite receiver shelf built which allows the tv/vcr to sit on top 
of it.  The oak shelf was a stair step (Lowes) which was already bullnosed. 
Stained it to match the oak cabinets.

Pillows on the couch are great accents.

I keep my dining table 1/2 open all the time... I call it my "command center" 
My laptop, CD burner, printer, keyboard and mouse live on it permanently. 

I have a comfy chair which doubles as my computer chair and talking to guests 
chair. I watch tv in it too as the dogs and cats find the couch more 
comfortable than I do.

Hope this helps.
