Tie-Wraps
We use beaded hair ties to wrap up items such as electrical cords and flags. It is a simple, inexpensive solution.

Universal Hanger
I have always hated discarding the perfectly good hooks at the ends of overstretched bungee cords. So, I cut off the cord portion and adapted the hooks to make a useful universal hanger.
I took two hooks and connected them using a ¼-inch-by-2-inch hex bolt with two flat washers and a Nyloc (nylon insert) nut, available at any hardware store. This creates a strong swivel hanger that has many uses around the campsite — holding lanterns, plants, electric wires, trash bags, fans, etc.
The hanger can be made even longer by using a longer bolt, or it can be tightened down to keep it from swiveling. The hanger is useful and it gives me the opportunity to recycle those good hooks.

Memories On A Ring
Photo albums are cumbersome, so we make copies of our favorite photos; use a punch to make a hole in the upper corner (left for horizontal pictures; right for vertical pictures) of each; and put them all on a binder ring. Our grandchildren help us identify each photo. We use a permanent marker to write a brief description on the front side of each photo. All of us enjoy flipping through the photos as we travel, reliving our experiences in the motorhome.
