awning shade kit
Has anyone had an experience with a RV awning shade kit? I'm talking about the type that fastens to the awning and gets staked to the ground. Happy Camping

Those awning shades START at $100.00 and I found the stock ones to be too short and only come in black.
I went to Lowes/Home Depot and bought sun shade material. It comes on a roll buy only what you need. Comes in several real nice lite colors. And black. Light colored ones makes your RV look real nice when in place.

1.Pick up the rubber snap-on grommets that have a hole in it. Or these metal grommets that don't require a tool to put them on.http://www.sew4home.com/tips-resources/sewing-tips-tricks/how-use-snap-grommets
2. Pick up these at any camping store to hang it with. Rubber slides right into your awning and attach your new shade cloth to the hook.

Cut shade cloth to length you want, add grommets, slip in hangers and attach! :C
I also made them for the sides of the awning also.
AND I bought a piece of it in green as long as my MH. I use it instead of those RV mats. Water goes thru it, you don't slip on it. 4 grommets staked to ground. Most important it folds up flat into a 12 in square for storage, can't do that with an RV mat!:W
