Houseboat: More Tweaking
Today I added pictures to the nursery and bathroom, made a rug for the parlor, added a foghorn to the pilot house and installed a yardarm with flags, made and installed (non-lighting) running lights, put a flag on the stern, and put a shawl and candle on the piano. (The music room has no light of its own and is darker than I'd like it to be.) Also installed the aquarium.
My list of things to do is getting shorter.
The ivory rug brightens this room considerably, thank goodness!
No, I'm not going to tell you what the flags spell. Lloyd says the flags are too small; I say, "where was he when I was making them?" If I can see 'em, they're just fine!
Another snippet of Anna's fabric and the innards of a small ballpoint pen made a nice stern flag.
The running lights are not functional. Made from bits of round dowel, balsa, and a couple of beads. I figure this ol' boat isn't going to leave the dock soon!
Algernon is waiting patiently for me to make him some fishing equipment.
In real life, the cloth is silver with silver spots. It really sparkles!
The aquarium is installed in the boy's room. This room needs more clutter. It's way too clean for a young boy!
