Episode 6: We’re Nearly There! Ultimate RV Makeover

The RV is about 80% complete. There are still many finishing touches to come that really make an impact.

But this stage is a big step forward from Episode 4 – Rebuilding Our RV, where we showed things in rough construction stages.

As it turned out, this workspace works extremely well for us. We love that it is also out of the main line of sight when entering our home.  Jane also really liked our solution and only made minor suggestions for changes.

Primary RV Workspace

In the main living area of the RV, we kept the original couch and reclining chair. They were just so comfortable and in such good condition, even being 20 years old. The jack-knife sofa pulls out to become a bed, or a great area for lounging and watching movies.

Updating the Living Area of the RV

We were also able to keep the gray fabric covering on original window boxes / valances. Jane and Danelle did an amazing job giving the valances a fresh modern look by removing and replacing the original dated, brown fabric.

Refreshing the Window Boxes

For appliances, we installed a new residential fridge, and a new convection oven. All of the beveled mirrors behind the kitchen counter were replaced with ceramic marble tile. The cabinets were all flipped, with the insides facing out, which is much more modern looking.

RV Kitchen Updates

The first piece is a replacement for the old broken Corian cover for the range top. It was made out of thicker steel so that it would provide a strong countertop surface. It fits perfectly in the space, and has a handle cut out for easy removal.

Custom Pieces for the Kitchen

The dining area was completely overhauled during the renovation.  It is definitely one of the more dramatic visual impacts of the design. The space originally had a traditional booth dinette, and floor to ceiling beveled mirrors as the featured wall.
