Get Instant Shower Storage for Less Than $20
Need more shower storage? I definitely did! There's nothing worse than trying to get clean while bottles and soap containers are falling on your toes. Instead of adding shelves or making a more permenant (read: expesnvie) change to my shower, I came up with a simple solution! I used a tension rod, shower baskets, and some curtain hooks to create more shower space. It's simple and space saving.
Hometalk Recommends!
SUPPLIES:
-Tension Rod
-Shower Baskets
-Shower Clips
-Metal Curtain Clips
STEP 1: Prepare your tension rod
Remove the rubber end of your tension rod and slide all of the shower clips and curtain hooks onto the rod.
STEP 2: Attach shower clips to baskets
Feed the shower clips through the holes of the shower baskets on each end allowing it to hang from the tension rod.
STEP 3: Add your rod to the shower
Hang your rod against the wall of your shower.
STEP 4: Hang your bottles
Clip bottles and wash rags with the curtain hooks and fill up your baskets with fitting items. (I used shallow baskets with the intent of keeping smaller items in it, however, there is a plethora of basket options at the dollar store that would be more suitable than larger items as well.)

I have done this for years … it’s really a good idea gives more space and easy access to shampoo and conditioner and what ever else you want to hang on it … I got my pole from a yard sale so it was cheap for me to do this ….the clips didn’t cost that much either.

Yes I've also did this for years you can get the baskets with hanger things already on there not expensive at all. They're really for kitchens but who's bothered about that. Then you just take them off and wash them then put back.

Frequently asked questions
Have a question about this project?
At 1st I thot it was the grab bar u were using. Would that work for a few things?
Count you put it a few inches from the wall and set stuff in top of the rod? Like bottles
Isn’t it too much weight causing the rod to slip
