For better access, you can also install some of these baskets to the walls near other parts of the bathroom, such as the sink, shower or toilet.

3. Shower Curtain Pockets

If you are in an RV, you can simply hang these bags on hooks or racks around the bathroom and unfold them to easily access your toiletries without using any extra space in the bathroom. Even if you cannot unfold them fully, you can hang them so that you do not need separate baskets.

6. Hooks

7. Wall-Mounted Dispensers

Wall-mounted dispensers in your RV bathroom can prevent the need to have separate bottles of shampoo and bars of soap. These dispensers can store liquid soap and shampoos inside them, allowing you to press a button to take some of it in your hand whenever you need to use it.

This can create plenty of space in the bathroom since shampoo and soap bottles tend to require storage spaces the most.

You can also mount these dispensers on the wall near the sink to save up even more space. Make sure you keep them at an accessible height so that you can use them conveniently.

8. Accessory Holders

Make sure you buy enough of these holders depending on your requirements. Buy separate kinds as well so that you can use them for different kinds of toiletries. This will prevent the need to keep your toiletries in baskets around the sink or on the floor.

You can also use knobs in the bathroom as holders in case you have accessories that you can hang, such as jewelry or hairdryers with straps.

9. Drawers

Beneath the sink in your bathroom, you might have a cabinet that has the pipework for the sink. Around this pipe, there might be a bit of space that you can cleverly make use of by installing wooden or plastic drawers.

In this case, sliding drawers can be more convenient as you can pull them out easily to access their contents whenever required. You can also buy wall-mount racks with multiple drawers in them and attach them in case you do not have enough cabinet or floor space.

10. Towel Racks

Towel racks in your bathroom can make interesting storage corners, especially if they are located at a short height from the counter. In the space between the rack and the wall or counter, you can place your toiletries such as shampoo and soap bottles (or anything that can fit, really).

You can also make use of wall-mounted towel racks to hang some accessories if possible, apart from your towels themselves. Hanging baskets on these racks can also provide a good amount of space for your toiletries.

To create this kind of space, you can consider installing multiple towel racks and rods to use for unique storage solutions.

11. Swivel Bars

Swivel bars can be a great way to store some flatter accessories, such as towels of all sizes. You can buy a few of these and install or stick them to the walls of your bathroom

 The bars on these can swivel around from one side to the other so that they rest flat against the wall when not in use.

If you have towels on these bars, then they can stay flat against the wall too. You can pull them out to a certain extent if you want to hang wider accessories or toiletries.

Either way, swivel bars can allow you to store multiple things without cluttering any part of the bathroom.

12. Toilet Paper Holders

You can make use of thin, vertical and open cabinets with multiple shelves inside so that you can store small objects on each shelf. You can do this on the other side of the toilet too if you have the space.

Similarly, you can install a shelf on the wall on top of the toilet for storing the required toiletries and accessories.

15. Plastic Bag Holder

You can then fold these baskets up so that they rest nearly flush against the wall, allowing you to use the remaining space in the bathroom for other storage needs.

17. Taped Coffee Cans

Instead of throwing away your coffee cans after usage, why not turn them into storage spaces for your toiletries? If you gather multiple empty coffee cans, you can clean them up and tape them together to create a vertical hollow cylinder that you can keep in a corner of your toilet.

You can use these to hold toilet paper or towels. You can also cut them up to make one side flat. Stick these onto the walls of the bathroom and use them for your toiletries.
