Just found you. What a fantastic job and it looks great!!!!!!
Thank you. Glad your enjoying. 😁
HINT: Some time ago we moved into a modular single wide home (sorta like a larger version of an RV shoebox shape). They are kinda close together in our hood, so in order to maximize lateral privacy, I took off the ugly window coverings and installed frosted window film textured with beautiful elegant palm trees/bamboo stalks etc, peel n stick from amazon, that covers (on mid level windows) from the window bottom to about 2/3 up so the top 1/3 of the window is plain window. Or you could leave a 3 inch gap at that 2/3 point to see clearly out of, and then cover the top as well for more privacy. Plenty of light coming in, then installed expresso blinds to get max privacy/no light at night. On the patio doors I put the window film from thigh height to shoulder height, that way i can see out, but no one can see in. You could leave a 3 or 6 inch clear slot at face height to see out, then cover the top portion of the glass door if u wanted. Expresso drapes at sides to close at night. Max light in, great privacy at all times.
Your Project: The drapes are nice, but you have to wash them, iron them, etc. Window film is a great privacy very cheap item, look beautiful all the time with no maintenance other than perhaps an occasional damp cloth swipe. The valances look snappy, I just wd have covered them in vinyl peel n stick instead, that way it only requires a damp cloth swipe to clean. I hate dealing with fabric unless i get to wear it, ha ha! lazy thing that i am...
That’s really cool. We don’t full time so we hardly have to wash them. Thanks so much for watching and commenting.
after u pulled them out of the washer looking kinda shredded I was taken aback! I didnt know bleach wd do such damage to drapes!! I highlight my own long hair with bleach so I didnt make the correlation. oh my! @@BillandKelleyAdventures
@@Lauren-vd4qe yes. Since then I’ve replaced. Cause I learned that too. Had no idea it would either.
Did you by chance do a video on the curtains?
Unfortunately I didn’t that was before I did a lot of TH-cam. I did do a video on changing them to Turkish towels and I just took down the valances and did curtain rods. Just up loaded that one a few weeks ago.
Where did you purchase the extra long tension rods?
Amazon amzn.to/4fUu6zD
This has really inspired me!! Great job!
That makes me really happy. That is my goal to show everyone you can do it!!!!
Hi! Love what you did. Huge ? For you…. What rod did you use for the back window? I’m having a difficult time locating a slender 78” rod! Help!!!
Thank you I ordered off of Amazon.
Love this! Where did you get the order the tarps from?
Thank you. I got them from Amazon. amzn.to/3DsxfXe
Thank you! just ordered them hope mine turn out as well as yours.
@@cindyolsen5008 I have used them in my house too haha
When you put everything back together, did all the original screws work? Did you have to have to use any new screws, and if so, what size? Thank you!!!
I used the original screws they worked.
I want to do that to our Rezerve. I'm not sure about the color of the material you used to wrap the valance. Is it gray?
Yes, it was gray I ended up hating it and taking them down. It's great to redo if you use the right color lol
We have an older 1998 Class C. Just removing the padded valances makes the space feel lighter. Not settled on a theme yet but I have some ideas. Glad I stumbled on your channel. Nice ideas. I like your style!!
Thank you!! I have changed mine several times sometimes it takes time to figure out what style you like the best.
Thank you so much for this video. I was trying to figure out how to put curtains and still keep my valance boxes and the tension rod is a perfect solution. Thanks again.
You are so welcome! Glad it helped.
Hey guys, great video. We're getting ready to update ours as well and it brought us here. Thank you!
Awesome! Thank you! Glad It was helpful.
So cute! Thanks
Thank you too!
Thank you so much! I can do this!!! Just so you don’t try another time you can’t put bleach on fabric. It will eat it. I cringed when I saw you pour bleach on the fabric. Even when adding bleach to water and then putting fabric in, so excited . the bleach will deteriorate the fabric. I am excited to do this. I have lots of quilting cotton. I think I might add an accent fabric in that piece you tore off.
That is a great Idea to add the accent fabric. Yes I think I figured that out about the bleach the other ones I ordered did the same thing haha I am lucky I didn't loose them all.
i guess it wd depend on how much bleach u added?
Great improvement. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you glad you enjoyed it
Really cool idea! I love the video. Hope you have a great weekend 🤗
Thank you and you too.
They turned out wonderfully. Can you tell me how you hung your plant in the big back window. I have a plant I want to hang but I don't know how. Thanks
Thank you. I ended up getting a small cup hook and screwing it in. I take down on travel days.
We have the same name and it’s spelled the same 😊
Can you put a link to your painting tarp. Sizes please
amzn.to/2SMkmSQ Here you go
Oh wow!!! Great update to those valances--I love how you come up with easy and cheap ways to make your RV look great! 👌
Thanks so much!
Oh my goodness the curtain holes 😂 the finished project looks great! -S
Thank you. FYI the 2nd pair I ordered I did the same thing too. Used a little to much bleach haha.
Its a much brighter look! I love it! Good job!
Thank you I love how it looks now too.
Great video! Love how the valances turned out! Thanks for sharing :)
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed the video.
I also pinned u to 300 likes for this video.
Thank you. 😊
Love this!!! Going to go try ours now!!! Great work!!
It was super easy. Please send pictures.
How much fabric did it take you to do your window toppers?
3 yards. This would depend on fabric and if there is a pattern you need to match up.
@@BillandKelleyAdventures Thank you very much. I love your channel I've had so much fun remodeling our rv.
@@janiceperez292 thank you.
@@BillandKelleyAdventures your welcome
Awesome!! I need to do the same but the blinds are attached inside (and they are power blinds) and our valences come down the side. A bit intimidated by the process.
Yes I believe those would be a lot harder. Glad you liked the video
NO! TOO MUCH BLEACH🤦♀️
I learned fast. Haha 🤣
I agree April M...and you don't pour it over dry fabric....
