in Tips & Tricks
I have seen several ideas on keeping toilet tissue in a T@B wet bath, but I still struggle with the best method.  I would like to keep it somewhere accessible, but also out of the way of the human and somewhat protected if the hand held shower is used.  Seeking some creative ideas from the community that don't require significant DIY skills. :smiley: 
Thanks in advance

    I haven't done it yet, but walnuts contemplating this topic. Stone people use coffee canisters, the plastic Folgers seem to work the best.

    Edit: after a little more searching, I found that Cottonelle had a promotion a while back and you can get designer holders on eBay. I just ordered one.

    I ordered throne with the blue top.

    We keep ours in a narrow Tupperware container (with lid)...fits nicely on that little floor shelf by the toilet.

    Tupperware/rubbermaid was my next place to look. I couldn't pass up one of those cute holders that seems to go so well with the T@b, though!

    A half gallon plastic ice cream container (after you have enjoyed the ice cream obviously!) works for us.

    Well, I have a string run through it and have it hung by the string on the shower valve handle.  When I want to shower,  I just toss it out of the bathroom.  This system is working very well, and it's no trouble, since I have to remove a few other things prior to showering anyway.

    Found this in some kitchen stuff from Mom's estate; various sizes. The lid seals tight.

    We store our extra rolls in the compartment with the pump. The roll in use is just removed when the shower is needed.

    Thanks for all the super ideas!  I especially like the low tech string solution.  How simple!  I do like the Cottonelle container.  I'm still undecided.  :smirk: 
    The T@B brings out my obsessive analytical traits.  I bought kitchen and bath storage items from Ikea, The Container Store, Bed Bath and Beyond, and Target. Most of them will be returned, but NOT the Command Strips and hooks.

    I stored 2 rolls in the pump area and they fell down inside and I was glad I was able to retrieve them.  I currently have a squeegee on a suction cup and the roll fits nicely on it.

    I like the idea of using the pump area...

    We just take the TP out when we shower. Leaves fewer things to have to dry off when we're done with the shower.

    I checked out the pump area and I can see how you would lose a few.  If a person could set up a little hammock, it could work.

    I always just take the toilet paper out of the shower.  However, thanks to Jenn and this thread I now own one of the cute Cottonelle containers!

    I used to always just take it out, but I would loose some paper on a regular basis from the wear and tear of getting moved around with nothing to protect it. The easy to dissolve paper is pretty thin.

    Mine's inside a white plastic grocery bag hanging from the faucet handle - Easy/smeezy and perfectly color coordinated with the white toilet. Want a pic? Did't think so :-)

    I was given a hint to use a 35.3 oz plastic container with screw-on lid of Coffee Mate that will hold one roll of TP and will keep it dry.    Oh, the cost was around $6 for the Coffee Mate as opposed to $12 for the container I ordered from Amazon that came without a lid (sent it back).   I don't drink coffee, couldn't find a family member or neighbor who used Coffee Mate, so it was disposed of.

    Thanks for all the great ideas!  Perhaps I just go with the plastic grocery bag hanging on the tension rod or the pump latch behind it.  I have a tendency to overthink ...  :smiley:

    Here is what I came up with. (4" PVC pipe with caps). Hold two 4" rolls. So we have to "pre-use" them down to that size before sending them out to the TAB. The bottom is glued with PVC glue. The top is not. It is held in place with some Velcro strips.

    That was the color it came in. I offered to paint it. But my wife said she liked it just like that! That was all I needed to hear! Lol

    This is my solution too.   I have a command hook just outside the shower door holding a towel, that's where mine gets hung while showering.  Just be sure to dry the BR wall before hanging it back up.

    I found this on Amazon.  This would be a good solution, but I really like the string/hook idea.

    I noticed both the Airstreams and T@b 400prototype are using waterproof toilet paper towel holders, so I did a search on them this AM. I should have guessed it was marine solution! You can find surface mounted ones at marine supply stores. I see West Marine has them and some of the reviews are from travel trailer owners and yes, one of them has hung it using Command strips.

    Marine design usually means better quality, but here's something less expensive if a $32 TP holder freaks you out. ;)

    I don't mind my plastic Coffee Mate "can" with the screw-on lid. I push it between the outer wall and the toilet and it stays in place for travel.
