28th June 2018: Another day of hanging pictures and labeling objects…
17th June 2018 – The back accommodation got a second coat of paint. It is looking clean again.
3rd June 2018 – Starting to feel a bit better. My father continued sanding the old paint on the outside, while I worked in the Library building a support for the models for the next exhibition in September.
20th May 2018 – A busy day! My father continued painting the den of the ship, while my mother varnished the old cabin in the hold. I finished some more exposition tables and built seven IKEA cupboards. The ship models are now stored away while I do the last conversion in the Library Room. There will be a permanent exposition on Belgian maritime heritage.
The LED spot lights are also mounted. Nearly there!
19th May 2018 – The first part of the den was painted with a red primer. I continued building tables for the exposition and cleaned the hold.
16th May 2018 – Just went shopping to Ikea. It is the quickest way to get light fittings, bulbs and cheap furniture to put behind the desks. If I have to make these storage units by myself, it would cost me at least triple the price in materials….
