No Nail Solution for Bathroom Storage???

we have a tiny bathroom countertop in our '08 Jayfeather. We got the wiring, stud placement specs from our dealership. From what I can tell, none of the walls in our bathroom can support the weight of a shelf that could hold all of our toiletry items that would otherwise crowd the tiny countertop.

I tried a tension pole corner shower caddy as a possibility...didn't hold tension and didn't work.

ANY ideas of how I can utitilze the vertical space or wall space in that room without overloading these flimsy walls? Surely there is a creative genius out there somewhere??

thanks in advance

I wish I had an answer for you, but I don't. Actually, I have the same question. It seems that the bathroom is really lacking in storage, and what little space is there, is filled up fast. I will be watching your thread for some answers.

Thin wall (hollow core door) molly anchors work wonders on RV walls. You just have to remember that once they're in they're there forever. Also be sure that there is nothing in the wall behind where you plan on using them. (pipes or framing in particular)

Two words: COMMAND STIPS. I hate putting anything in the walls...maybe I fear commitment. Not sure. The wife and I searched and searched and found Command Strip bathroom containers. We just put them in today. Got them at Target. Here are a few pics!Click image for larger version

I have been looking also and the command strips at Target sure look good. We want to put in a SMALL sink. So far have not found one small enough.

+1 on Command Strips. We put the hooks all over our 19H.

That is a great idea, I didn't know anything like that was available.

The Command "hook & loop" strips work great for hanging pictures and small bins. I used them to hang the shampoo/bath gel dispenser in my shower. In fact, I've used them (and the command strip hooks) all over my trailer.

We are using a number of the command baskets. The come in a variety of sizes and styles. We also used the adhesive strip to hold the tooth brush holder to the wall.
