A decorative paper towel holder that is mounted on your wall helps keep your paper towels close at hand when you need them. Whether the holder is mounted in a kitchen, a bathroom or in some other utility room, a towel holder makes it easy to grab a towel to wipe your hands or to clean up a messy spill without having to fumble or search for it. This is a very good thing because when you need a paper towel, you often don’t have time to search for it.
Decorative Paper Towel Holders
Paper towel holders do not have to be ugly or even plain. Like many utilitarian items, they can be dressed up by using special materials, by adding decorations, or even by adding bright colors. Some holders are recessed, having only the towel sticking out while others use themes or other sorts of decorations to move them beyond merely utilitarian.
Protecting special towel holders
Some holders are a little more fragile than others, especially if they have delicate decorations. By mounting them in a recess or niche you protect them from being damaged by being accidentally snagged on a sleeve or similar mishap. If you have gone to the trouble to select one of these holders, you will want to keep them in good shape so that you can enjoy them for many years.
Utilitarian Holders
Sometimes you need a towel holder out of doors. A sturdy box-type holder is an ideal choice in this case. It can be painted attractively, and it will keep your towels protected from the rain. Or you might simply need a plain, ordinary holder that doesn’t draw attention to itself. Just by using simple materials that are well-maintained, these can also be decorative. For example, a plain, wooden holder can be attractive thanks to the warmth of the polished wood. Paper towels often need holders. They can be decorative or plain – but always need to hold the towels securely. Here are ten selections ranging from the extremely fancy to the very simple. All of them will work well in your kitchen setting. The selection is up to you.
