Towels, ah. These cunning fabric adversaries are frequently the items that spiral out of control the quickest in the game of bathroom organizing. It can be difficult to keep things folded and in order, but with the right storage, it’s easy.
Why not experiment with a few different systems to determine which one is best for your house? This collection of 20 creative towel storage solutions can help you organize your bathroom, linen closet, or laundry room.
Stylish Farmhouse-Inspired Towel Racks
It can be difficult to find a fashionable towel rack, but this one made of reclaimed wood is ideal. These gorgeous shelves, which have sharp angles and a muted wood tone, emphasize the wood’s texture for a rustic appearance.
Not to add that this arrangement is ideal for a small bathroom. These wall-mounted shelves take up very little room while providing lots of space for storing your towels. That is what I mean by a win-win situation.
A Multipurpose Cupboard Stack
Arranging your towels properly alongside other bathroom necessities is another way to store them.
Use A Heated Towel Rail
A heated towel rail is a multipurpose bathroom accessory that not only stores your towels but also keeps them warm, comfy, and dry.
A towel rail can be quickly fastened to a wall and stores many towels with ease. There are a variety of designs from which to pick, all of which will blend in beautifully with your bathroom’s design.
The IKEA Hemnes Storage Bin
IKEA is actually a nirvana for those of us who enjoy organizing. Explore its depths to discover this Hemnes storage bench, the ideal place to keep your towels hidden beneath a covert, sleek, and simple appearance.
Don’t forget that you’ll be bringing this piece of furniture into a damp setting. I advise spraying this piece with a marine-grade varnish like this before using it if you want it to last for a long time.
Creative Shelves
What about creative floating shelves? Such shelving for storage makes you drool.
Store And Display Towels With Decorative Objects
Why not incorporate your towel storage ideas with a distinctive decorative display if you want to design a bathroom area that is rich in color, texture, and personality.
We talked with the client about taking a risk in the bathroom area and surrounding the room with color and pattern,’ Alice Lane Interior Design says of the design process for this bathroom. For the clients, this Kelly Wearstler (opens in new tab)wallpaper struck the ideal note and embraced the contemporary California cool feel.
The sleek, black metal display cabinet has been exquisitely arranged with towels and other accessories, and the overall concept is playful and outlandish. Displaying necessary, useful objects like towels alongside individualized decorative items on bathroom cabinet ideas results in a feature that is both functional and unique.
In-Vanity Towel Storage
The in-vanity shelves are our next suggestion for a traditional way to store towels. You may add convenient towel storage to your current vanity by either removing the doors from one side of it or extending it with a straightforward shelf.
If you already have a vanity built, this method is straightforward and ideal for bathrooms with a classical design. To maintain a uniform appearance, just roll or fold your towels uniformly when storage.
The Classic Closet
When in doubt, turn to the traditional. You can fold them anyway you choose in this traditional closet, which offers you plenty of storage. Additionally, it keeps them dry and clean.
Use A Versatile, Modular Shelving Unit
Using a flexible modular storage unit is a great way to organize your bathroom and create a central area where you can keep all of your towels and toiletries together. It can also adjust to your changing needs over time.
The String Shelving(opens in new tab) unit creates a designated area for all bathroom items in this streamlined, minimalist bathroom. The design is perfect for hanging towels because it is equipped with hooks, trays, and shelves.
A modular design can be created to match your particular storage needs and seamlessly integrate into your bathroom area, making it the ideal solution for small bathroom ideas when you want to optimize on space and storage.
Easy-to-Build Box Shelves
Three things make these DIY wall shelves a personal favorite: they’re easy to construct, you can create them any size, and the finished product looks quite professional. Installing them above and below your mirror might work.
Make these shelves contemporary by using sharp angles and a dark stain, or go rustic by using light oil and some twisted edges. You have a choice, which is why this hack is so adaptable!
Cupboard Storage
Making the most of what you currently have is sometimes important when it comes to storage. Bathroom cabinets serve as more than just storage spaces for toiletries and other goods. If there are cabinets in your bathroom, think about converting one of them to a storage area. Additionally, cabinets can be used to hide towels.
Utilize The Features Of A Traditional Design
One thing to keep in mind for classic bathroom ideas is that many traditional sink designs are characterized by an exposed metal frame, which offers a useful location to hang and store towels.
The stunning Victorian console basin in this bathroom features a striking chrome frame that gracefully supports the double sinks. The metal frame adds a gentle touch to the overall industrial style by creating a welcoming space that may be decorated with towels.
The identical towels enhance the bathroom’s overall sense of harmony and produce a warm, inviting communal vanity area that is stylish and functional.
Reclaimed Wood Corner Shelves
Because they are challenging to use, corner spaces in bathrooms are sometimes squandered, but these reclaimed wood corner shelves are the perfect solution. These storage solutions are made from triangles of salvaged wood, similar to this.
Upgrade your shelves with black brackets for a sophisticated design or with pewter pipe brackets (like these) for a rustic appearance. If you have any old wood laying around that needs a new life, this is excellent.
Under the Sink Nook
If your bathroom cabinet already has a shelf behind it, this storage solution is ideal. Why not utilize it to your advantage by designating room for towel storage? These nooks are useful in every bathroom, whether you utilize all of it or only a portion of it.
Create Zones Through Different Storage Designs
According to Lucy Searle, Global Editor in Chief of Homes & Gardens, “if you have a busy family bathroom where you need to store a lot of towels, having specific zones around the entire bathroom helps ensure that there are plenty of fresh towels for the entire family to use.”
The stylish heated towel rail serves as the bathroom’s main place to store towels, and extra towels are kept in a textured, woven basket under the sink and on the useful shelf by the door.
These towel storage solutions make the most of the available space in this bathroom by dividing it into a number of well-organized areas where towels can be conveniently stored and located. Keeping your towels readily accessible and on display is great for larger bathrooms with plenty of space, and it may help free up important storage space in other areas of the house.
Sleek IKEA Towel Cabinet
As we all know, IKEA is the best place to go for a reasonably priced, stylish, and useful piece of furniture. But who would have thought they would have the ideal towel storage solution?
Choose a cabinet that will fit into your bathroom with ease. Greater height is preferable since it provides more storage on a smaller footprint. Then, to see your towels, replace the door panel with a piece of glass or transparent acrylic (here).
Converted Bookshelf
Who said books were the only thing on shelves? Make an old bookshelf a standalone unit if you need more storage along the walls. Bookcases provide orderly rows for inventive storage. Even more storage space or decorations can be placed on the top surface. In terms of aesthetics, bookshelves provide bathroom décor a crisp wooden finish.
Use An Eye-Catching Towel Ladder
Your bathroom can benefit from the efficiency and aesthetic appeal of a towel ladder. A towel ladder is a contemporary storage option that updates a traditional style and can hold many towels as well as other accessories like dressing robes and toiletries.
A free-standing ladder, which is frequently made of wood, can bring warmth, texture, and a subtle statement to your bathroom. Additionally, a towel ladder can help your towels dry completely so you can utilize them properly.
The wooden ladder in this bathroom by Neptune(opens in new tab) beautifully contrasts with the gray tiles while remaining connected to the light wood countertop on the sink. The ladder is a functional addition to this unhurried, tranquil bathroom space that provides storage for the white towels.
Rolled Towel Stackers
Sometimes the simplest solution is the best one. This concept is perfectly illustrated by the rolled towel stacker design. From the laundry room to the linen closet, these fit nicely on your shelves in any space.
You can easily create this stacker for yourself using some magazine racks, or you can use them to divide your shelf for a quick upcycling project. To keep it stylish and understated, I advise using a monochromatic color palette.
Lattice Storage
A lattice box provides additional storage in addition to being useful for wine preservation. Depending on your demands, a lattice box can be attached or left freestanding. Even your next storage solution can be built in the shed with a little DIY and plywood. When it comes to aesthetics, few storage concepts are as striking as lattice.
