RV owners can also have fashionable blinds or shades in their campers. With cleanliness and functionality as important factors to consider, these tips will help you make your RV feel more like home.
Like other homeowners, RV dwellers want their décor to look chic and beautiful for their own enjoyment and for entertaining. Here are few things that anyone who owns a mobile home should consider when choosing blinds or shades:
- Curtains can incur more dust in mobile homes, and dust from the road can become easily trapped. Avoid heavy curtains if possible.
- Constant lowering to protect from the heat, and raising to see the night sky can wear blinds down more quickly.
- Operation in bumpy conditions driving the open road can lead to further damage.
Blinds allow for total privacy when it's necessary. Most places you'd park and sleep in an RV would provide little, if any, seclusion. Blinds will ensure that you're not woken up by strangers peeking through your windows.
RVs are extremely susceptible to sun damage, as are the people living inside of them. Blinds are a great way to insulate RVs, trap in air conditioning, and block out the sun.
3 Important Factors to Consider for RV Blinds or Shades
- Draperies in mobile homes can trap dust, especially after driving long distances. Avoid heavy draperies if possible.
