Not loving the look of your RV’s fridge?  Try one of these ideas for a fresh look.

1. Paint

If the front of your refrigerator is made of wood, you can paint it just like you might paint wood cabinets.

2. Removable peel-and-stick paper

The great thing about this option is that it can be temporary.

3. Chalkboard

If your refrigerator’s front panels are removable (as is the case with most wood front refrigerators), you can simply replace the panels with inexpensive chalkboard material cut to the correct size.

RV owner DeeDee painted her refrigerator with chalkboard paint.  You can read about the process and see photos at her blog.

For a removable and less messy alternative, you can use peel-and-stick vinyl chalkboard paper.

Another option is to just purchase a magnetic chalkboard and hang it on the front of your refrigerator.

4. Dry erase board

Similar to the idea above, but the white look might be preferable for some decor, and the material can be purchased quite cheaply.  In this video, the Fummins Family demonstrates the simple process.

5. Magnetic panels

Not only is this refrigerator now magnetic, it also doubles as a dry erase board.  You can see step-by-step photos detailing how the wood grain panel was replaced with steel here.

Magnetic steel inserts can be spray painted whatever color you like!

6. Factory made replacement panels

You can also purchase replacement refrigerator panels that are designed to fit your exact refrigerator model, like the owner of this RV did.

Here are two other websites that sell Dometic and Norcold replacement inserts.

These shiny black panels can be written on using neon dry-erase markers.
