A Women's RV Forum run by Women RVer's!

Thought you all might enjoy these simple projects I made for small amounts of money. I saw similar objects and decided I could do them myself for a fraction of the cost.

This is a clothes dryer - it will be strapped with a bungee cord to the ladder. It is made of PVC and is not glued so that it can be easily rolled up to store. The bright pink is simple clothesline.



This is also made of PVC and is to store those long handled forks for roastin marshmallows or hot dogs so they are contained in one space. I put this in an outside storage compartment. I'm thinking about adding some kind of handle - what do you think?

Those are neat! How does the clothes dryer attach to the ladder with the bungee cords?
That's a neat idea for campfire forks they're always poking something!

..

Great ideas! And I'd add a handle to that fork thing - looks too big to grab with one hand?

..

Good ideas. I'm stealing the last one to hold extra TP. I have a wet bath in the RV and this will be perfect to keep the TP dry. I can velcro it to the wall behind the toilet. I can also use one to hold the extra dumping hoses I keep. I can attach it to my ladder. Thanks for the ideas. Linda

You bungee the solid PVC right to the ladder. When I use it, I'll try and remember to take another pic and post it then.

love your ideas! especially the clothes line. I want one that will attach to my rear bumper. as my shower is a corner shower I can't use a tension rod in there. I've got to get some more ideas for that inside one. any suggestions?

Okay just 1/2 jacked. Have yall been to cgs that say no clotheslines, would this be acceptable in those cases?

pretty nifty items, pvc pipe is so easy to work with and it can be painted too.
I've got plans for my garden pergola to get made out of pvc and shade cloth.
Hope in the spring for that project.

very good ideas
another idea that we did when we had our 24 ft trailer that had bumpers was to put a couple of post boxes on those big one with the door used them to put stuff in now I can't remember what seems like it was hoses it was legal until it's mounted as a post box in front of your house atleast that is what we were told then

The park I stayed in at Port A didn't "allow" clotheslines but that is where i first saw these and studied them. There aren't any trees there so I would guess that might be the big issue.

ah, hum.... As a camphost at one of those campgrounds that don't allow clotheslines the main reason for the clothesline ban is cause they don't want folks tying clothesline around the trees which when alot of folks do this, it damages the trees & tends to make the CG look like a refugee camp.....but at least at the campground where we host, you can use those clever PVC pipe clotheslines on the back of your camper or those folding, wooden clothes drying racks....just remember to take the clothes down when they are dry and not leave them up 3 or 4 days.... Usually, the PVC pipe ones are located at the rear of the rig and tend to be out of sight in most CGs...and the wooden racks are usually under your awning..... It's always best to ask if you can use these 2 types...of course, but this has been my observation....

I agree w/ the "refugee camp" idea. Also,, i imagine they don't want ppl to "clothesline" themselves while walking,,

,,,,,,,,,, course,, they SHOULDN'T be walking thru other's campsites, am I wrong? ??

Just wondered.

Still learning learning learning learning....

Several people in TX had those pvc home made clotheslines on the back of their rigs. They do help you get away with putting clothes outside - in many parks - not in all. I used to have a bike rack on the back of my rig - I could hang clothes directly on it - was great for all my summer dresses I wash by hand. Miss it.

I like the one for the marshmallow sticks, etc, Kellie - good idea - might do something similar for some things I have. Thanks for that idea.
