Space saving ideas

New to the forum and thought I would share. Hubby and I own a 19' Hardside Trailight with the beds that pop out. We have had it for 10 years. We get out at least once a month on the weekends with friends. We winter camp it's fun to watch them plow out the snow to park the trailer.
1.Bathroom on the door I hang a clear plastic shoe rack for all of those little things that take up room.
2.Kitchen 3M hooks hold a 12" piece of cloth tripple folded for strength. I put button holes in the material and that is where I hang all of my pan scrapers and wooden spoons. I use two rows, bottom row is between first row for spoon head room.
3.Basket for Oil, vinager, that kind of stuff in fall everything goes in house and gets used up during winter then replaced new in spring. If we do winter camping it is ready to go.
4.Space bags are great for the bedding not used often.
5.Have a little cupboard that I use for can goods. Again 3M hooks I
made a cloth strip with pockets that I use for plastic grocery bags.
6.I made my own shade cloth for the awning, with hooks and everything was less then $50.00.
7.I make bags to hold many things that go into storage area to keep it neet and together. If you don't sew, onion and potatoe bags will work.
8.I use a double sided fishing tackle container, one side fuses and bulbs, the other is for sewing any mending that I do on the road.
  • I don't want to make a bigger deal out of this than it is but as a fairly new forum member myself I know it's easy to get nervous when you first attempt to post a message. I was so nervous and found myself posting in the wrong forum,etc. It just seems to me that there is a kinder way to "help" someone figure things out around here. I'm also willing to concede that perhaps my own nervousness makes me too sensitive.

    He is not "tough". He is asking the OP to follow the rules, just like the rest of us.
