Homesteading: Next Project Up

[aldersprig]

The next project is a small one.

(After I: tidy the sewing job on the door curtain; sand the raw edge on the bedroom hooks)

Okay, two small ones, one much smaller than the other. First: Hang the mirror in the bedroom.

Second: The walls in the bathroom are ugly, and will be until we raise the ceiling. Also, I have a wire shelving unit for over the toilet just waiting to be installed.

I have bought the materials, and now I want to stretch a panel of fabric over a wooden frame (the fabric is a brown swirl on a buff-colored polyester suede) and hang it over the worst wall (the one I pulled the paneling off so we could see how bad it was), then install the wire shelving in front of it.

THEN I'm going to make a little 8" cube fabric basket with the scraps.
Whee!

My next project is to make a cat litter box surround to keep the dog out of it....

spikes? we put in spikes around the plants to keep the cats out...

more seriously, how intense of a surround?

The suggestion was a baby gate. I'm thinking of making three rectangular frames out of 1x and using some lath that I saved when we tore out a lath and plaster wall to make a cat permiable dog exclusion device. Am pondering hinging it together.

cat-permeable dog exclusion device <3 <3 :-)

we don't have that issue, but I've thought about making an enclosure, just because the litter boxes are all in public places.
