So, as our last post mentioned we painted our RV….again! In our first attempt at painting we tried to go with the green colors of the blinds/curtains but we ended up with a olive drab cave. It was not good. On top of that the paint was way to matte and quickly became very grimmy and dirty from the dogs and general close quarters of RV living. We needed a change.

At first we were going to repaint it green but in semi gloss, but after a few stroke of paint we knew we wanted something different. I had bought some nice yellow paint for the bathroom and decided to try that out on the wall. It looked great, so we just went for it.

Despite the small space of an RV it still took all weekend since it is a lot of edge work. We did the bathroom in a seafoam blue and got new towels to brighten that up a bit as well. In addition to the painting I finished reupholstering the dinette which came out nice and orange and replaced the ratty carpet in my office with a plush lime green shag rug i got at IKEA for $50. It all came out great! We also ditched silvia’s black fabric guitar case that used to hang on the wardrobe wall like a black hole.

Since my SLR has no idea what wide angle even means, I took some pics and merged them together for the full view. they are a little choppy, but you get the picture. I’ve included a few before shots as well to see the before and after…
