Latest Mod today. It is a polytherm wire rack purchased at the container store. You can purchase any components you want to hang on it. Best of all, it is hung with command strips so no holes!

Thanks, Dan! It worked.
Trash bag holder just inside the door. I used command strips to hang. Purchased this at the camper store.

No photo, just a link. You need to upload the photo then insert it into your post. Use the green buttons (a tree I think) on the tool bar.

Paige - I think the 'pill bottle' shelf is a good idea.

Paige, your medicine shelf looks really good. My walls are still fairly empty, but I'm sure it won't take me long to fill them up. I'm going to try posting a picture of a grocery bag holder I hung by the door with command strips. Love those things since I change my mind a lot Wink

Can someone let me know if I did this right? All I see on this screen is the link to the picture Confused

Edit: added the picture itself - techntrek

Thanks for the info! It looks very professional. What a great idea to "recycle" the existing material!

Hi, my husband made the door by removing the whole panel from the side of the bench, measured and cut out the door right from the panel. then he framed it and with two hinges, he hung it. He also added a magnetic latch. We also divided that area in the bench into two compartments. The one just behind the door is dedicated for his tools and then the back compartment we use for items that we only have to access occasionally.

Paige, I love the door in the side of your dinette bench. How did you find a door to match and any pointers on how to make this would be appreciated. (Maybe FR needs to add this at the factory on future pods!)

We replaced the cheap cloth bench guards with wooden ones. We also put up the two tier shelf in the kitchenette to reduce the counter clutter. Happy with both modifications!
