Not loving the look of your RV’s fridge? Try one of these ideas for a fresh look. If the front of your refrigerator is made of wood, you can paint it just like you might paint wood cabinets. by Connie Lairmore Although her fridge was a more modern style, RV owner Debi didn’t like how the stainless steel constantly showed fingerprints, so she added some decorative decals to disguise the fingerprints. You can find the dandelion decal she used here. By Debi St The great thing about this option is that it can be temporary. Metallic contact paper was used on this RV fridge to create the look of stainless steel. by Andrea Reynolds This RV owner used blue and white chevron contact paper on the front of the fridge. by Deborah Tullos via Pinterest.com Peel-and-stick wallpaper was used on this fridge. by Erin McSwain via Pinterest.com Another RV owner used contact paper to give her fridge and cabinet panels a matching look. by Melanie Schrock 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. by DeeDee Campbell via ourcloverhouse.blogspot.com For a removable and less messy alternative, you can use peel-and-stick vinyl chalkboard paper. by Tiffani via weaselmouth.com Another option is to just purchase a magnetic chalkboard and hang it on the front of your refrigerator. by Jessica Vaugn 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.
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. by Eric & Katie via mountainmodernlife.com Magnetic steel inserts can be spray painted whatever color you like! by Amanda Watson via doityourselfrv.com 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. by Erin King For more ideas for redoing your RV kitchen, you might enjoy my blog post about backsplash ideas.
