21 Colorful RV Renovations & RV Remodel Ideas (2024)

by Janae McCormick

I’ve always been drawn to the more colorful RV renovations and used a lot of color during our fifth wheel remodel.

White walls, white cabinets, and wood tones are beautiful, but that wasn’t the style that fit us best.

But it’s no secret that most RV renovations are more neutral, so I decided to round up some of the most beautiful, colorful RV renovations.

I hope you find this round-up of colorful RV renovations and makeover ideas as inspiring as I have!

Whether you have a brand new or an older rig, doing a few renovation projects can make it feel more like home.
