This was amazing - I’m makin a couple for myself and putting them in the bathroom at our RV Park. 1. Do you have a material supply list I can copy and paste. 2. How do hook up the double wires to the RV? So appreciate your style!!

That is so awesome @Meryl Kessel make sure to let us know if you have any questions along the way! Also if you look in the description box for the video we do have a lot of the items listed out, though we are going to be coming out with a post later this week that goes through it all. I'll come back and leave another comment here once we've got the post up. Anyway I hope this helps and hope the lights turn out great for you :)

I’m not sure I’m talented enough to make an entire fixture by myself 😂 but I do want to update my fixtures, I’m just having a hard time finding ones that have on/off switches on them. I love the ones you have, do you have a link for them?

Lots a great info! So just to be clear, I can use any light fixture as long as my light bulb matches the trailers voltage? My travel trailers original lights are 12v. If I bought fixtures that say 250v I can still use those as long as I use a 12v light bulb?
