CLOTHING/LINEN
Clothing is rotated based on local weather to
enable our wardrobes to remain functional
and allow our kids to keep some level of
order in their areas. If jumpers and trackies
aren’t required, they’re stored away with our
spare linen.
CARAVAN BEDROOM
One of the biggest space-savers for our van
has been opting for shelving in the wardrobes
over wasted hanging space.
For us, folding clothing allows the space to be
used much more effectively, and utilising some
cheap boxes from Kmart to maximise the
triangular-shaped space has allowed for loose
items such as socks and jocks to have a
functional home.
For the kids, too, some of the fabric Kmart
boxes have made for perfect toy boxes that live
in the unused space at the end of their beds.
A hanging shoe storage system has been
mounted by the inside of our door for our
walking shoes, since keeping them in
cupboards or under the main bed wasn’t
practical. This way, they are easy for each
family member to grab when needed.
With all of us having multiple hats, we needed
to find a storage solution that wouldn’t ruin
their shape or give the kids an excuse that
they ‘couldn’t find’ one when heading out. A
handful of suction-cup hooks has been a
handy solution that didn’t require finding
additional cupboard space or screwing
anything into the walls.
Our ‘map pockets’ have been another
favourite storage solution. We have one next
to every bed and a larger one in our kitchen
area. They provide easy storage for books,
remote controls and other personal items that
are used frequently.
