1. Brooke Seaman
Brooke and her husband Jon regularly live in their camper while traveling for work, so they wanted it to have a homey feel. Their travel trailer has undergone several phases of decor including this farmhouse look which featured white cabinets, peel-and-stick wallpaper, and cozy decor pieces.
Brooke used burlap sacks to make curtains and cover the trim on her dining booth.
After having to remove a wall in their bathroom due to a suspected water leak, Brooke and Jon decided to replace the wall with corrugated metal, which gave it even more of a country feel.
Later Brooke decided to remove the upper cabinets in her RV kitchen and install open shelving. She says she doesn't mind stashing the items on the shelf in a box when it's time to travel.
2. The Flippin Byers
Jessica and her husband bought this 2016 Keystone Laredo fifth wheel to live in full time, so she added her personal style to it so that it would feel more like home.
In addition to painting the walls white and the cabinets dark gray, they replaced the molding around the slideouts with stained boards for a more rustic look, replaced the light fixtures, added details like faux shiplap and subway tile and organizer buckets mounted on the wall in the kitchen for extra storage.
You can see more photos of this RV on the Byers' Instagram page, @TheFlippinByers.
3. Cherice Perkins
Cherice and her husband bought their fifth wheel to live in full-time after they sell their house. Clean gray and white paint with cheerful blue and white curtains make this kitchen feel fresh and modern.
The rich, wood headboard original to the camper is accented nicely by the dark paint color, while white trim and one white wall keeps the darker colors from overpowering.
Cherice and her husband removed the built-in dining booth and sofa, replacing it with a sofa with hidden storage under the seat and a convenient storage cart. The faux wood accent wall in the living room slide was created using peel-and-stick faux wood paneling wallpaper.

4. Christina LaPlaca
Christina and her husband bought their 2015 Forest River Wildwood Heritage Glen Lite fifth wheel to live in full time so they could keep their same home no matter where in the U.S. the military sends them.
To mimic the look of a plank wall, Christina used peel-and-stick flooring which she then painted. She then used antiquing wax to create the illusion of depth and to give her white painted furniture an aged look. You can read more on her blog about her bedroom makeover.
Christina used peel and stick flooring to make a faux wood wall in her kitchen, too. She also added burlap to the inset panels of her kitchen cabinets.
To complete the vibe, she created stagecoach-style valances paired with Roman shades for the windows.

5. Jennifer Reid
Jennifer and her fiancé remodeled this 2007 Timberlodge RV to use as a lake house. Having the RV set up in a permanent location gave them a bit more freedom with their decor and furniture choices.

A versatile drop-leaf table can be expanded to seat more people or occupy less space with the leaves down.
To create her backsplash, Jennifer used faux brick paneling (available at Home Depot or Lowe's) and added spackling “grout” and whitewash to make it look more realistic. Her fiancé built the amazing stovetop cover.
The subway tile backsplash in her beautiful bathroom is peel-and-stick tile from Amazon.
The black and white color scheme with rustic wood gives Jennifer's RV a more modern Farmhouse feel.
6. Amy Smith
Amy and her husband sold their 1,700-square-foot home to live in this Forest River travel trailer.
Amy has gradually been making modifications which include a peel-and-stick tile backsplash, painted cabinets, a drop-leaf table from Ikea, and peel-and-stick wallpaper on the refrigerator. Her white plank wall is actually made from textured shiplap wallpaper.
7. Kelly O'Brien
Kelly turned her 2002 Coachmen Rendezvous Class A into a farmhouse on wheels with the help of some paint, distressed wood wallpaper on the dining booth, and other decorative touches.
The dining booth transforms into a comfortable day bed.
Kelly used the same peel-and-stick subway tiles that Jennifer Reid used in her RV bathroom—a popular way to renovate your RV kitchen.
8. Kimberlyn McFadden
Kimberlyn made the uncommon choice to paint her RV's trim but leave the original wallpaper. A slipcover disguises the factory-original sofa.
Kimberlyn used the distressed wood wallpaper to make an accent wall behind her bed and as insets for her cabinet doors.
She also chose to paint her kitchen cabinets two different colors, choosing a light grey for the button cabinets, and white for the uppers.
9. Melissa Escobar
Melissa has an impressive ability to innovate to create the look she imagines for her RV. She made her curtain rods out of PVC pipe spray painted to look like copper, and framed her windows with peel-and-stick wood shiplap.
I love the decorative “wrought-iron” detail in the corners of the slide-out trim, made from a shelf bracket.
10. Jennings Paige
The green color Jennings chose for the kitchen cabinets in contrast with rustic faux wood wallpaper gives this 2012 Keystone Cougar travel trailer a more modern farmhouse vibe.
White linen curtains, a natural fiber rug, farmhouse-style coffee table, and a rose velvet couch complete the look.
11. Michelle Sharp
In addition to fresh paint and cute farm decor, a tin backsplash helped Michelle achieve a bright and cheery farmhouse look in her RV kitchen.
Michelle added more storage by mounting these baskets on the kitchen cabinets.

Michelle also used the distressed wood wallpaper as a bedroom accent wall.
She painted her built-in dresser with an aging technique to complete the antique Farmhouse look.
12. Robyn Crowhurst
Robyn and her husband John renovated a 1990 toy hauler and turned it into a tiny home. These photos show some of Robyn's Farmhouse style decor during one phase of their renovation process.
Robyn's husband does construction for a living, so it was no problem for him to build a real plank wall for their bathroom.
They also added this real wood wall and sliding door to the open floor plan toy hauler to create a separate bedroom for their daughters. They reinforced the frame of their RV to compensate for the added weight of the extra walls.
Robyn uses vintage Farmhouse items like a rake head and a cheese grater to add storage to her kitchen.
13. Eric and Bri Cortes
I have seen a lot of cute RV renovations, but it's not often one comes along that really makes my jaw drop the way this one did.
Every detail is just perfect, from the floral fabrics to the distressed wood cabinetry to the vintage artwork.
The shower walls were replaced with corrugated metal, and even though the beige wallpaper in the bathroom may look original at first glance, a closer look reveals a vintage Victorian-style pattern.
As you can see, it can be really fun to redo the inside of a camper to look more like a Farmhouse-on-wheels!

Ashley Mann lives in a 38-foot, 5th-wheel RV with her husband and their cat, Professor Theodore. She enjoys the challenge of finding the perfect way to organize a space, and she loves seeing all the creative and clever ways people come up with to customize their RVs.
how has the peel and stick wall paper and tiles held up. did it fall off the walls over time or hold up well. i want to try this option to brighten up our rv bedroom.
I can’t answer from personal experience, but you could try contacting the owners of some of these RV’s to ask! If their names appear in blue below their pictures, that means you can click the name to visit their social media page or website.
I actually saw a discussion about this on Facebook this morning. Some people had problems with their peel-and-stick shiplap wallpaper falling down after the winter, and others said they used adhesive spray (found in the craft department at Walmart or a craft store) to hold it up. Which makes it permanent, I guess!
This post made me smile and even tear up a little. My husband Ed and I renovated our 1997 Nuwa HitchHiker 5th wheel, starting shortly after we bought it new back then. People were horrified! “You’ll never get your money back!”
Ed was gifted a lot of old barnboard which he used to line our bed frame, create a lift-up cover for the window at the top of our bed (lifted and hooked when we wanted light/windows open) and also doubled as a headboard, create a desk with extra storage where the “vanity” had been, add a skinny coat closet near the back of the main area, and a decorative shelf with storage underneath the huge back window. We removed the RV sofabed and dinette, replacing them with a cute denim loveseat and our vintage enamed-top table & chairs. We had a beautiful quilt on the bed. Plants to make it homey & clean the air (they rode in the shower during a trip).
Our only regret was that we didn’t keep it when we stopped working on the road. We were sorry in less than 6 months that we had sold it. But our lives had taken a different turn at that point.
We always planned to get a vintage camper and redo it to use for summer travels. Alas, that never did happen before my beloved Ed died in 2017.
Thus the story behind my smiles and tears looking at these RVs. I’m so grateful for the opportunity we had to live and work together, especially because we were home no matter where we were, together in our tiny cabin on wheels. ❤💔❤
Thank you for this grand article and my unexpected trip down memory lane. 🥰
Aw, thank you so much for sharing that! <3 Glad to be able to bring back some sweet memories for you! <3
Why why why is the RV industry continually cranking out faux Tuscan suburban dreck? THIS is what I want in my vacation cottage on wheels!!!!
Some of them are starting to go with a more updated look! Check out this blog post and you can see what I mean!
Do you know where Kelly O’Brien found her mail/key/storage wall holder that is below the kitchen sink? It would be perfect for our camper, just not sure where to find it! Thank you!
I’m not sure! I would check on Amazon, and at local stores like Ross and Home Goods.

Possibly Hobby Lobby? They sell a lot of stuff that resembles that piece.
Good tip!
Loved all your ideas. Can you tell me where you purchased wooden storage with hooks that’s in the kitchen ? Thanks
Hi Linda, these RV’s are not mine – I just shared the photos that the owners of all of these different RV’s allowed me to use – so I’m not sure where they purchased the items they used. Under each photo is a link to the website or social media of the owner of each RV, if you’d like to try contacting them to ask.
Ashley,
I am wondering what people use to adhere the various decorative items. Command strips cant hold up all these items. My shelves are not a very high quality wood for drilling into. Any suggestions?
Looking forward to creating some hominess in our Winnebago Hike. Thanks,
Gina
Hi Gina, I have several ideas for hanging items on the wall in this article: The 8 Best Ways to Hang RV Wall Decor (No Drilling Required!) Hopefully you’ll find some ideas that will work for you there!
I absolutely love seeing all of these remodels…. I just wish I could see one with my floor plan. I have a 2014 Salem 32bhds and now I have gone permanent….so throw all the farmhouse or cabin thoughts you have at me!!! Please and thank you!!!!
I have the paper to start. How did you account for plugs? And the trim around cabinet doors?
Hi Cathy, I wrote this article but none of these RV’s are mine – I just found the pictures to share. Are you asking how to apply wallpaper around obstacles? If so, the best way is to unscrew and remove the object (such as the wall plug cover or light fixture), paper over the spot, and then cut a hole through the paper to replace the object. If this isn’t possible, another way is to make that the location of one of your seams. Another way is to just measure carefully and cut a hole in the paper before you hang it. I would suggest looking up some videos on YouTube that demonstrate how to apply wallpaper around obstacles for some visual examples. Good luck!
