Decorating Your RV for Christmas
‘Tis the season for tinsel and holly—and lots and lots of Christmas lights! This Christmas season, we want to let you know that RV life doesn’t have to mean cheerless and undecked halls. You can turn your camper into a Christmas carriage fit for Saint Nick himself. We have some ideas that will help get you started!
Lights and more lights
Nothing transforms a regular ol’ RV into a beacon of Christmas cheer like twinkling string lights. Whether you choose white or multicolor, Christmas lights are the best way to showcase your Christmas spirit. If you aren’t keen on the laborious task of stringing up lights, you could go the projector route. Christmas light projectors are the easiest way to light up your RV for Christmas. Just plug it in, point it at your RV, and turn it on. Simple as that!
What’s that in the window?
Windows are perfect for displaying festive décor. Let the kids decorate the windows with stick-on snowflake decals, hang up a wreath, or show your neighbors your sense of humor like this guy did. Window decorations are great, because you can enjoy them both inside and outside your RV.
Go beyond the RV.
If there is a tree near your RV, wrap it in lights (with the permission of the RV park, of course)! Set up inflatable Christmas characters around your RV! Create a walkway with light-up candy canes! Get creative, and don’t skimp on the holiday figurines. After all, you only get one Christmas a year.
Don’t forget the inside!
Christmas trees come in all shapes and sizes. Find the perfect mini tree for your RV and dress it up with as many ornaments as you can fit! Hang up some garland, and put the stockings somewhere Santa will see. For some added festivity, change out your linens and throw pillows for some with a Christmas pattern.
We hope these ideas have kindled your Christmas spirit and inspired you to decorate your home on wheels. Not only is it an opportunity to show off your creativity and bring joy to passerby, but it’s also an opportunity to create memories with your loved ones.
