    Planning storage needs... What, how and where?

    I've tried to give my whole house to women's shelters, but they usually give the ladies vouchers to take to thrift stores to shop instead of storing a bunch of stuff. The girls where I work often get to go on to apartments of their own, so I have donated pots and pans and small appliances and...

    Planning storage needs... What, how and where?

    Fifteen down to three, check (same with shoes!!) Love the stuff you put in first aid, lots I hadn't thought of. If I'm gonna have too much of something, it'll probably be weapons. Axe, hammer, knife and gun... Strategically placed.

    Planning storage needs... What, how and where?

    bullfrog, great idea to keep track of daily use items! dr_nelson and slow2, more things I've forgotten, thank you! Caution, that is actually a good idea! If I manage to keep them until Jan, the RTR will be the place to let them go! Brian, snow cones sound divine!!

    Those were *just flops!! If I had as much money as Imelda had, I would have had as many shoes! No matter the weight gain or loss, shoes always fit :-)

    Coyotes, birds of prey and my 20lb (max) dog?

    Jericho, my Jack Russell Terrorist is 15 pounds, so I'll have to be pretty diligent as well! She's bred to chase foxes and rats, so squirrels, bunnies, even other dogs, are fair game to her... I have yet to buy her a harness, but she will have to have one as she can squeeze her jaw to get out of...

    Planning storage needs... What, how and where?

    Yeah... I am cleaning out my house... I think I'm in the "I don't want to get rid of that" phase, so I'm trying to figure out how I'm going to fit it in the van!! For instance, I have about 15 containers of body lotion (most never opened) that I'm trying to make a basket for. And tons of...

    Planning storage needs... What, how and where?

    I love those little cloth baskets I see everywhere, but cannot even afford the ones at Walmart, so I'm thinking about using cardboard boxes and decorating them with craft paper I already own, or maybe some of the cute duct tapes out there... Just one more decision I am procrastinating about... Ha!

    I can relate to "what I can afford now", Dean!! I've been very blessed and was recently gifted a Dyna-Glo heater. It will have to do!

    Planning storage needs... What, how and where?

    Since I'm still in the planning stages of my build and haven't put anything permanent in yet, I thought I'd try to get an idea of what I need to store so I can figure out how and where it's going in the van. If there's anything I'm missing, please feel free to add! I could also use some ideas on...

    Now I've gone and done it!

    That's a tough one, but I sure do get it! I certainly had to have a bunch of faith to buy a 1993 Ford Club Wagon :-)

    Bob Wells, are you related to John Wells?

    12V electrolysis... jimindenver style... I don't think he had a beard like the Wells men! Perhaps they don't have enough solar...
