Home Improvements


Back in the Fall, we had our sunroom reroofed, because of previous hail damage, and because our skylights were leaking. Apparently all skylights leak eventually, as did ours. So a new roof was put on, and we had these skylight holes left. Hubby put up insulation in the holes, and I thought about what to do to cover them, aside from just a normal piece of plywood. First I considered painting night skies on the plywood, but then thought, oh wait a minute, that would darken the room just by two black holes, can't have that! We use the sunroom as our exercise room and want as much light as possible. Then I thought about painting blue sky with white puffy clouds. Went to Joanne's to get winter fleece, and found exactly the fleece I needed, blue sky with white puffy clouds. So I upholstered each piece of plywood, and hubby installed them, with a tiny bit of assistance from me, yesterday and today. Looks pretty good for short and easy mural work! Now when we exercise, we have a blue sky all the time.
