Decorating Your RV
Once you feel comfortable in your new recreational vehicle, it might start feeling as if the interior is a bit too sterile. After all, campers that come straight from the assembly line don’t often have bright, decorative interiors. Your RV is a blank slate just waiting for your decorating skills to shine. This space is much different from that of your house or apartment, so it can seem challenging to find a way to decorate it to your liking. Fortunately, Sumner RV has put together this helpful guide to get you started.

Express Yourself
More often than not, decorating is a form of self-expression. When you transform your RV into a space that is a reflection of your personality and your passions, you’re bound to enjoy it even more. Customize the environment to your liking rather than what you think other people would enjoy. You can find inspiration online or from magazines if you feel like you’re hitting a wall when it comes to ideas. You should still make an effort to add your own unique touch to it so you don’t feel like you’re living in a photoshoot.
Make Use Of Color
The neutral tones inside your camper might be affordable to create, but they’re not exactly appealing to look at. You can dress up beige, brown, white, and grey with pops of color throughout the RV. If you wish, you can even paint the walls as you would the inside of your house. Brighten up a dull space by painting an accent wall with your favorite color and add coordinating decorations as you see fit. Choose a specific palette, such as cool or warm colors, tropical colors or pastels, or even go with a white interior that’s scattered with colorful decor.
Stick With A Theme
One way to make decorating your RV easier is to pick a theme and stick with it. For example, you could go with a nautical or desert theme. It could also pertain to your favorite sports team or something that you like to collect. Maybe you like the idea of incorporating travel imagery into your camper decor. Whatever the case is, you should allow your interests to guide you in choosing a theme that will tie everything together. Plus, picking a specific theme might solve the color issue by providing a color palette you can easily follow.
Add Houseplants
If you’re a botany enthusiast, you’ll probably start to miss your home garden when you’re on the road. Why not bring a touch of that into your RV in the form of houseplants? Even people who aren’t blessed with a green thumb can manage to care for a low-maintenance plant or two. It’ll liven up your space and freshen up the air. You’ll want to look for ways to anchor your plants to the floor or the wall so they don’t fall over when you’re in motion. It’s also wise to choose plants that are relatively easy to care for.
Make It Cozy
It’s likely that your standard RV furnishings aren’t the most comfortable ones you’ve countered. They’re built more for durability than comfort. You can soften up those vinyl seats with some soft throw pillows and cozy blankets. Add sentimental value with your grandmother’s quilt. A fleece throw will turn a bland window seat into a comfy escape that’s much more inviting. Use colors from your chosen theme or add contrast with a unique color that you haven’t used yet.
Display Mementos
You can really make the space inside your camper by own by adding souvenirs and photographs from your travel adventures. Create a clothespin line of postcards you’ve collected from all of your trips. Print out photographs from your Instagram of all the places you’ve been to. Display trinkets and knick-knacks from all the tourist attractions you’ve visited. The possibilities are endless!
