On most Rexhalls there is a small space between the sink and shower. It is about 4 inches wide. It is not really big enough to put anything there (Linda occasionally has a small, narrow makeup satchel that fits there)
, but it is big enough for items to fall off the sink into the space.
Linda asked for a small shelf that would give us a few more square inches of counter space, allow a place for light items to be kept, and catch things that I dropped.
At Target we found a shower type “shelf” with
suction cups (see photo); only $7. It is clear plasic
tray, 4 x 15 inches. By removing the suction cups and carefully
drilling holes in the plastic, it was relatively easy to attach it
with screws into the wood paneling of the sink just below the
countertop. We have found it to be extremely useful. You might want
to consider it.
The photo is far more clear than my words.
Paul and Arlene Hales added a different type of shelf and reported it in FMCA magazine, November 2004, page 32. Their shelf was above the sink and below the medicine cabinet and attached to the wall with molly fasteners, such that the shelf could be lifted off the mollys for cleaning.
Good job Paul and Arlene.
