6 Tips for Decorating your RV for the Seasons and Holidays
Enhance your RV's coziness year-round with seasonal decorations: add holiday garlands, switch out table settings, refresh throw pillows and blankets, update letter boards, adorn the RV porch, and hang festive wreaths.
Traveling in your RV is a fun activity that the entire family can enjoy at any time of year. RVing during the holidays is especially popular, as is traveling throughout all four seasons. And while many prefer to travel in the summer, many campgrounds and Harvest Host locations are open year round for those who like to take advantage of off-season travel.While many people may enjoy decorating their homes seasonally, the idea of decorating one’s RV for the changing seasons and holidays is often overlooked. However, decorating for the different times of the year can make your RV feel more homey and fun, and it may even make you more likely to travel in all seasons, instead of just the summer. Vacationing during the holidays could also be more fun if your home on wheels matched the current trends and happenings.With all of this being said, some people may feel uncomfortable decorating their RV for the holidays and seasons. After all, decorating a small space without overpowering it can often be a bit intimidating, even for the best home decorators out there. If you are wanting to decorate your RV interior seasonally and are looking for some pointers, then you’ve come to the right place. Follow the six tips below for the best ideas to brighten up your space each season.
1. Add seasonal garland to reflect the current holidays.
Garland is such a versatile decoration for more than just winter. Its small size and profile keeps it from overpowering a small space, while still adding some cheeriness and personal flair. A pretty string of garland can also be swapped out for various seasons and holidays. For instance, one could hang leaves or pumpkins in the fall, and then switch that out for fairy lights or evergreen garland for the Christmas holiday or winter. In the spring and/or summer, one could hang strings of flowers, dried fruit, greenery, or any item that signals nice, warm weather. You can make up for the lack of wall space by hanging garland over windows or doorways.
2. Switch out table and place settings accordingly.
Having your table set nicely is a great way to decorate your RV without overfilling the small space. Tablecloths and place settings bring life and homeyness to a room in a space that may not be typically decorated. Just like in a traditional home, table decorations can be changed with the seasons. Pumpkins, flannel and leaves are cute in fall, while evergreens and snow-themed items are perfect for winter. Flowers and bright colors are fun for spring, while mountains and the ocean may be preferred in the summer. Whatever you choose to do, remember to keep it fun and simple. And of course, pack it up when moving from place to place!
