My First RV Mod

Two of my most favorite travel-related things are:
1. Fun RV Mods
2. Magnets

RV Mods
I love watching the Facebook groups and YouTube videos about the fun tweaks people have made to their homes on wheels!

Magnets
When I first started traveling, I would collect magnets along the way. Nowadays, I prefer a lapel pin as a souvenir but my magnet collection still holds a special place in my heart!

Imagine the heartbreak I felt when I discovered that my “stainless steal” RV refrigerator was in fact, not really magnet enabled!

I scoured the internet and countless isles at Target for other solutions but the best I could come up with was magnetic dry erase boards. I bought a couple of those and they did the trick but I didn’t care for how it looked.

After a lot of brainstorming, I just knew there had to be a way to do a custom, magnetic sheet and an adhesive back with the same dimensions as my refrigerator. Bingo! I found a place online that did that exact thing! After providing them the specific dimensions, they warned me that the machine could be off either way by a quarter of an inch. I took my chances, placed the order and waited patiently for my magnetic dream to arrive a week later!

The sheet was sized perfectly!

I also wasn’t certain how strong the magnetic sheet was so before applying it to the refrigerator, I just taped the sides of it on and after a couple of trips, all of the magnets were strong enough to stay in place!

Once I had the sheet applied, I was really happy with how the new makeover looked! My first RV mod was a success!
