Ashley Mann

Ashley Mann spent three years living full time in a 38-foot, 5th-wheel RV with her husband Josiah and their cat, Kitty. Her favorite thing about RV life is 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.

These festive decorations will fill your RV with holiday cheer this Christmas without taking up too much storage space the rest of the year.

Burlap garland

The ribbon on this garland from Etsy could be swapped with ribbon for other seasons so that you could leave it displayed year round and never have to store it at all.

Chalkboard signs

Draw a picture or write a message for every holiday!  If you're not the artsy type, you can follow this tutorial to transfer a printed image to a chalkboard sign.

Or, if you don't want to mess with chalk at all, you can get the look by just printing a chalkboard sign to frame, like this set of signs for every holiday:

Throw pillow covers

Throw pillow covers let you change the look of your bedroom or living area for every season but don't take up too much storage space.  (They also make great gifts!)

Reversible signs

I love the idea of reversible wood signs like these two from Etsy as decor that works for multiple holidays.

One-time use decor

Real evergreen garlands or string garlands made from disposable items such as candy canes, popcorn, cranberries, cinnamon sticks, dried oranges, and pine cones can be used once and then tossed so that you don't have to store them.

You can even buy the ingredients for a garland like this all dried and ready for crafting on Etsy.

Holiday Light Projector

A light projector like this one can cover an entire RV with moving LED designs for multiple holidays.  It's operated with a remote control and not much bigger than a softball.

Mason jar candles

RV owner Julie changes the ribbons and ornaments on these Mason jars to match each season.  If you're worried about fire safety, a remote-operated, battery-powered flameless votive candle would look just as cute in a Mason jar candle holder.

Collapsible Christmas Tree

Seemingly designed with tiny home and apartment dwellers in mind, Christmas trees are stored coiled and flat and expand when you pull them up.

 Flameless lantern

These adorable LED lanterns will keep your RV feeling so cozy year round.

Holiday Chair Covers

Decorate dining chairs with these cute covers.

Window decorations

You can have a white Christmas anywhere with snowflake window decals!

Or, for an alternative to decals, try using aerosol spray snow to stencil windows with snowflakes or other designs. (By the way, if your RV needs a window treatment makeover, check out this blog post for ideas!)
