Hello there! I'm really striving to make our fifth wheel as "homey" as possible on the inside - we don't vacation in it, we live in it full-time. Anything that makes it scream RV, I would like to change if possible. I know I'm not the only one here of the same mindset. We chose this model because it already felt so homey to us, with the wood blinds and curtains, the wide stairs up to the bedroom, the wood floors, the mocha cabinets and L-shaped kitchen that sets it apart from the living area.
We removed the existing furniture and bought a new residential-type sofa bed in dark brown and two tan leather recliners. And removed the wallpaper border (as I'm sure everyone knows by now )
I'm on a quest to replace the curtains - just looking for ones I like. The side panels will be easy enough to do, just a gathered panel - it's the piece that runs along the top that has me a little stumped. Maybe just leave it and look for panels that would coordinate with it?
So, what really screams RV to me is the ceiling lights, but I think I'll probably have to learn to like them or learn to ignore them. I'm sure I'll really like them during a power outage this winter.
Another thing is the door. Some ideas on how to disguise it but still have it easy to use would sure be appreciated.
So, if anyone wants to share some of their ideas I'd love to hear from you. Take Good Care - Lorna
PS How about the bedroom mirror doors? I've seen some that were divided into squares with wood trim - not a good description but they sure looked sharp! Could something like that be done? Or other ideas?
