An RV adds a lot to the experience of traveling cross-country and camping out away from civilization. If you spend plenty of time in your RV, though, you may find yourself wishing it could be a bit more comfortable. Fortunately, there are some simple and straightforward things to make your RV feel more like home. A few extra touches and features go a long way to turn your RV or camper into a home away from home.
STOCK UP ON KITCHENWARE
A good meal can make any place feel all the more welcoming; even with basic food, the right cooking supplies, and a quality set of dishes and silverware, you can enhance dinnertime. Plastic utensils and paper plates are convenient, but they make accommodations feel more temporary. A real set, even if you bring it out just for special occasions, can change how it feels when you sit down to eat with the family.
Keeping your RV equipped for preparing a meal is just as important. There are plenty of kitchen supplies designed with the compact space of an RV in mind, making it easier to organize, cook, eat, and then clean up afterward.
COZY UP ON THE ROAD
Consider accommodations to make yourself, family, and guests more comfortable in a literal sense as well. Our Jayco RVs use top home brands for their chairs, couches, and mattresses, and we make sure to let our customers know. However, not everyone has the ability to purchase a new camper with higher end lounge chairs, couches, and mattresses. With that in mind, throw rugs and blankets bring extra flair and can be a source of comfort when the weather turns chilly. Add a pair of slippers to seal the deal.
ADD SOME ATMOSPHERE
A few personal touches here and there provide a stronger atmosphere to an interior and can make your RV feel like a genuine living space. Bring some favorite books, movies, or music for something to enjoy during downtime. Decorate with family photos or curios with fond memories attached to them. A potted plant can be both delightful and beneficial to one’s health. Never underestimate the value of the little details.
