One of the things I love about my camper is the giant refrigerator!
But I don't like how it dominates my tiny camper!
I decided to make it less obtrusive - First I covered it with adhesive vinyl. I actually would have preferred to find some higher quality vinyl, but the cheap stuff from Family Dollar was the only light pattern that worked.
Then, I painted the plastic trim with a good multi-surface craft paint made by Plaid which I picked up at Walmart for less than $1/bottle. It is made in the US and seems to be very high quality. It is permanent after it has thoroughly dried.
It took about 3 coats, mostly because I kept missing places lol. Just to be safe, I didn't paint it on the handles, where it was more likely to chip off. The color I used was called "Marshmallow".
Isn't it a fantastic improvement!
It really made the camper feel larger! I highly recommend it.
It no longer dominates the camper!!
If you like the saying on the refrigerator - and you have a Silhouette cutter, I'll give you the cut file -
I thought the saying "A Crowded Camper is Better Than A Roomy Castle" was perfect!
If you have the portrait, you can resize it to cut - it will be about 9 3/4" wide x 8" high
For my refrigerator, I cut it about 10.6" x 8.7" - the size it is in the file you can download here.
In addition to the silhouette cut file, I have included a printable version in .png and .pdf formats. Even a coloring book version!

I drew a United States map for my camper to show the states we've camped in. It includes a printable version, plus cut files if you have a vinyl cutter, you can get the file at Etsy.
