DIY Blackstone Storage for a Small Camper
Our camper's exterior refrigerator compartment wasn't especially useful for the way we travel, while our 17-inch Blackstone was something we brought on nearly every trip.
I repurposed that compartment into dedicated griddle storage with a simple shelf above it, turning wasted space into a much more useful part of the camper.

Turning an Underused Compartment into Griddle Storage
Rather than trying to find room for the Blackstone inside the camper or carrying it loose with other gear, I wanted it to have one dedicated place that was easy to access from outside.
The existing exterior refrigerator compartment gave me the footprint I needed. I converted it so the 17-inch Blackstone can slide in and out easily, then used the remaining height for a shelf that adds room for cooking supplies.
It's a simple modification, but it's exactly the kind of small-space solution I like: instead of adding another storage box, it makes an existing part of the camper work harder.
This project is one of the four camper upgrades featured in my DIY small camper storage ideas video and Idea page.
