1. Pleated RVs<\/h2>\n

Instead of the standard mini blind in your RV, try a pleated shade.<\/a> It\u2019s better than a mini-blind because it\u2019s lightweight like a mini, but has no slats to trap dust and dirt from the campground. And the slim profile and stacking height are so minimalist, you won\u2019t feel like they\u2019re in the way in your home on the road. Some pleated shades are also cordless, so they\u2019re safe around kids and pets and the clean cordless look is just right for such a small space. Pleated shades will complement your casual on-the-road lifestyle but add a bit of flair to your home away from home.<\/p>\n
