Makeover in San Felipe




I have been wanting to make our cabin look a little better and more put to gether. I finally came up with an idea. Mexican Tourist decore using all the bright colors they use.



Look there is a frame around one window and it is painted yellow, too. Not bad after 27 years. The insides of one window is orange and another one is red. The curtains are made from Mexican blanket just folded over and hung with rings on rods.


The little couch is painted red. I love it.






I sprayed painted the table purple. Ran out of paint so it is just graffiti on the top.





The 5 gallon igloo was replaced.



I made this for the fireplace to sit on.


I am excited about doing it. The 1929 frig is going to be spray painted orange. You will have to come down and see what colors I use for what. What do you think of my idea?

MY SOLAR LED GARDEN



My sister-in-law, Laurie) got me hooked on solar lights at Christmas time. All Led lights. They use no engery. Cheap to buy, well not too much anyway. Fun to watch. You could line your side walk with them to and help you see out at night.




I now have a night time garden that takes very little tending. None in fact. No watering at least. Just make sure they are in the sun 8 hours every day. They change colors (into red then orange, yellow blue green, purple) , all night long and make a little light, too.




I have lilies, daisies, sun flower, snow flakes and a blinking pink bushs. I also have good bugs, a dragonfly, a butterfly and a swarm of little pink butterflies that blink, no picture.

























How is that for a new night time garden and very easy to tend.
