Now here's a thing i want to utilise my shower cubicle into a wardrobe for when we have our yearly long holiday what we have is OK for weekends and the like but i have been looking for a folding or canvas type w/robe that would sit in the shower tray which is 500mm i don't want a bar across from wall to wall due to the stress it may cause on the walls just a free standing one we can sit in the tray then take it out if we want to use the shower or don't want to take it. I did offer to get rid of problem altogether but OH won't go to a nudist site, Would welcome your replies..

I did see a post on here the other day where someone had done something like that. They may be along to answer your post but in the meantime why not do a search on this forum for showers or facilities you might find their post

Would love to share your solution - our shower is full of junk and would be much better used as a wardrobe!

Ironically, our wardrobe is full of junk and most of our clothes stay in the boot of the car. We do use the shower though so putting the junk or clothes in there is not a realistic option (unless we cross our legs and smell a bit rough) The nudism idea sounds like a good solution but don't see my OH going for it either.

We "converted" our shower to wardrobe/storage area. Used set of those plastic four drawer unit from Wilkos for clothes. Put some stick-on hooks for dressing gowns & other items. Handy for brush, water container handle & filling pipe storage. We never use it as shower so why not utilise space.

I've got something similar to the argos wooden with cloth around wardrobe but mine just has the shelves.  I stapled an old sheet over it to make it look nice and stuck it in our large wardrobe in the van.  It still leaves a a little bit of hanging rail.  We just take it out when it needs a service :)

Hi Kpedd,

We use two of these www.wilkinsonplus.com/Storage-Rails/Deluxe...Rail/invt/0230807  in our 'walk-in wardrobe' (spare sleeping pod of tent).  They are a little wide for the space you have in your van, but I'm sure it would be possible for someone who is a bit handy to modify one for you.
