What holds your bath towels?
It is always good to have a towel bar nearby to hold a nice, fluffy towel ready for when you step out of the bath or shower. Opt for the traditional single, straight towel bar or go decorative with different shapes and styles to hold your bath linens. Does this Spark an idea?
Single Bars
Single towel bar styles are common in most bathrooms.
Traditional, single bar towel racks are probably the most common towel bar styles. But even a simple, straight bar towel rack can be dressed up. Use unusual materials for the single bar like raw tree limbs or twisted, decorative wrought iron bars. Then dress up that single bar with decorator bath towel sets -- layered on top of each other or tied with ribbons to create an interesting and stylish bathroom.
Freestanding Towel Rack
A freestanding towel rack can hold a number of towels in your bath.
A freestanding towel rack is both beautiful and fully functional. Use pieces created specially for a bathroom or purchase a quilt or blanket rack to use as a towel rack. The double bar style gives you double the hanging space for your bath towels. Some of these racks also have bottom storage shelves. Fold and stack additional towels on the bottom for even more linen storage in your bathroom.
Hotel Rack Towel Bars
Mount a hotel rack towel bar in the bath.
If you don't have wall space for towel bar styles that allow the towels to hand downward, borrow space on the bathtub or shower wall to mount a hotel-style towel unit up high and away from the flowing water. You'll be able to stack bath towels when you can't hang them. Just make sure your unit is in the form of rack construction, as a flat shelf could catch water and allow your towels to sit in water.
Towel Rings
A towel ring can hold your towels in a narrow wall space.
When you only have a narrow wall space available for hanging your bath towels, a towel ring might be in order for your bathroom. Full or semi-circle bath towel rings will hold one or two stacked towels in less than 6 inches of space. These towel bars are easily mounted close to the shower or tub for quick access as you exit the bathing area. Towel rings are easy to install and come in a number of decorative finishes.
