Wall-mounted RV bathroom organizers are a great way to add storage space to your tiny RV bathrooms. You can use wall-mounted shower caddies to keep accessories like shampoos, conditioners, body washes, etc. handy and safe. You can also use shower caddies that can be hung over the showerhead and wall-mounted soap dispensers to save even more space.
Shower curtain rods offer a way for you to get creative with your bathroom organization. You can use curtain rings to hang your toiletries. A shoe hanger hung on the shower rod can carry your skincare, makeup, and hair accessories easily. Hang it behind a shower curtain to keep everything nice and dry when the shower is being used. Add an extra shower rod to hang everything from clean towels to storage baskets.
Most RV bathrooms come with a cabinet installed over the sink (if not, you can easily install one yourself). Utilize the depth of the cabinet effectively by adding cabinet organizers like additional shelving, plastic baskets, or even hooks. The idea is to get enough space to stack all your vanity essentials inside the cabinet.
For most of us, the RV over the sink cabinet doubles as a medicine cabinet as well. To make sure all your meds are safe and within reach, use small plastic containers and baskets to organize everything. Clear containers will help you identify the meds easily. Use double-sided suction cups to make sure your containers remain safe and in place when the RV is moving.
A vanity caddy can hold all your toiletries easily and keep them within reach. You can opt for a wall-mounted caddy installed on the side of the sink. If you have a larger bathroom, you can also opt for slim kitchen trolleys parked and secured right beside the RV bathroom sink. Secure the trolley by installing suction hooks on the wall. Wall-mounted accessories like toothbrush holders and soap dispensers are also great ways to save space.
A magnetic strip installed just above the RV bathroom sink faucet can hold things like your bobby pins, nail clippers, small pair of scissors, and more. This is a great way to save space and to keep track of your bobby and safety pins that have a way of always getting lost.
Use the space under your RV sink to store bathroom essentials like towels, extra paper towels, bathroom cleaners, and more. Add extra shelving to the under-the-sink cabinet and roll your towels to get the most out of the storage space. You can also use the cabinet door by attaching your hair tools like small hairdryers/straighteners to the door with clips.
Get creative by installing a magnetic board on the cabinet door. You can then stick different things on the door like hair combs, nail clippers, and small containers to hold things like your makeup and hair care accessories. This is also a great way to keep the smaller bathroom items safe while traveling since the magnet will keep them in place.
Over-the-door organizers like shoe organizers are a great way to add some extra storage space inside your RV bathroom. This is an RV organization hack you can use even if you have a tiny RV bathroom. Just hang the organizer over the door with hooks and store all your bathroom essentials. You can also install hooks on your RV bathroom door to hang clothes, towels, and other things easily.
Hanging door baskets are a great way to add personality and storage space to your RV bathroom. You can find door baskets that have hooks and can be directly installed on the door or get small baskets and use a rope and hook to install them. Either way, you can amp up your bathroom decor.
You can use so many different kinds of wall mounts to store and hang your towels. A simple towel rod is always a good way to go. You can get creative and use a wine rack as a towel holder. A towel bar is a great way to hang towels of different sizes, it is also good for drying your towels. A few Command hooks installed on the bathroom wall can also act as towel holders.
There's no reason why you can't use the space around the RV toilet to install a toilet paper holder. You can find many toilet paper holders online that you can easily install yourself. A quick tip is to install the TP holders vertically, this saves space and looks chic. You can also opt for floor toilet paper holders and place them near the toilet on the floor.
A lot of RV bathroom organization comes down to the stuff you can mount on the bathroom walls. RV bathroom shelves come in all shapes and sizes and allow you to store tons of stuff. Since they double as bathroom decor, you can get as creative with the shelves as you want. For example, you can mount two or three tension bars on the walls and use them as shelves. You can also use spice racks as shelves.
Big or small, RV bathrooms are one of the most important features of your motorhome. Get the most out of the storage space inside your bathroom by using the above-mentioned RV organization hacks. Get creative with space-saving ideas that add both function and decor to your RV bathrooms. Don't forget to install an RV Skylight insulator on your bathroom skylight for temperature control and privacy.
