Thanks Kaylorsan,
I plan on loading up with a number of items. Good resource.

Has anyone added a small shelf to the bathroom on an AI, something to set toiletries on?
Thanks in advance for any feedback on this.

My wife has a plastic holder with multiple pockets that she hangs over the towel rod. This works well for us.

Ours came with a small corner shelf above the toilet, on the right as you face the toilet. We don't really use it though, so, about to install our brand new Gumby & Pokey figurines. Will post pics when installation is complete.

We found a small, 3-basket, tension-rod type item we put in the corner by the toilet. I think at Bed, Bath & Beyond, but i'm not sure. I remember having to search for one whose shortest expansion would fit that space.

We also have two wire, suction-cup basket type things in the bathroom, and a couple of other plastic suction cup items.

Sounds like a lot, doesn't it, but all of them are in use with necessary items.

I think I've found my solution. It's a two basket gizmo that hangs over the door. Just need to check dimensions when I get home then order it from Amazon.
Thanks for all the suggestions.

Check the clearance at the top of the door, too, as ours is very tight....allowing for no over-the-door hangers.

Thanks for that Doug & Maggie. Mine actually has a 1/4" gap at the top so this will work just fine.

Pistol safes that can be found at any gun or sporting goods store are quite strong, reasonably secure, and come in a variety of shapes and sizes. Most use an electronic combination lock, but the batteries only need changing about once a year, or they could easily be attached to the house battery system.

Just found this pic on line. Kind of a cool idea. Hang a tension rod in the bathroom, and then attach baskets and hang stuff from it.

I'm on a roll this morning. Found a website with some real interesting storage items you could buy. When you go to the website, click on "Shop Now" in the upper right side. Ignore the rest of it.

I know! I really like the organizer that hangs over the back of the seat, but I'd want the one with pink circles on it, and I doubt hubby would go for that! We'll see.

By the way, I just googled something like, "storage solutions for a small RV" and that's how I'm finding some of this stuff.

I keep things pretty gender-neutral , also like the interior to kind of blend together in terms of color.

Don't want to look like doug&maggie's traveling fortune teller or something,

A little color goes a long way in a small space.

Yea, and I'm sure hubby wouldn't appreciate having to scramble to hide the pink organizer when he goes to pick up his cycling buddies to go to a race. Too unmanly.

We've just been through the whole "manly" thing areound here recently on this very thread, and I came out the worse for it. So I'm staying far, far away from this one!

Oh, Protag, don't run and hide! We didn't beat you up too badly.

We need your depth of wisdom here.

The depth of my wisdom is measured in inches, not fathoms, but I fathom when I'm in over my head. Running and hiding is a valid strategy when winning isn't possible! I'll be back soon enough when issues of color coordination aren't up for discussion.
