3 creative towel storage ideas for your bathroom

When it comes to sprucing up your bathroom, one thing that probably isn’t at the forefront of your mind is towel storage. But when it comes down to dressing your bathroom with the final finishing touches, if you don’t know where to place your accessories to help them complement the room and look, it can dampen the atmosphere of the space you’ve worked so hard to create – and no one wants that. So, when cultivating a beautiful bathroom, it’s worth considering every last detail!

At NPM, we’re experts when it comes to luxurious designer bathrooms, so we know a thing or two about creating beautiful bathrooms and wet rooms, and we’ve got a few tips on dressing your bathroom with those final finishing touches to create the perfect relaxation environment for you to unwind in. Let’s take a look at some creative towel storage ideas you can use to give your space that finished and well-thought-out feel.

Wall mounted towel storage

The first and most common method of towel storage is wall-mounted towel storage. It’s not unusual to find hooks on the back of bathroom doors or to hang your towel on the radiator when you’re not using it. And while there’s nothing wrong with these methods, there are ways to take wall-mounted towel storage and make it slightly more elevated to give your bathroom a more luxurious curated vibe over a more lived-in feel.

Easy ways to upgrade your wall-mounted towel hangings include opting for slightly more aesthetic looking fixtures and making a feature out of them. If your bathroom has accents of any metals, further draw out these elements by choosing hooks in a similar colours. The hooks can be as chic and simple or designed as you like to perfectly complement your space! If your bathroom has a more rustic feel with some wood accents, opt for wood hooks in similar shades. Not only will this provide all the function you need to hang your towels, it’ll also add an extra element of style to the space to tie the whole room together.

Bathtub towel basket 

Another great way to incorporate some stylish towel storage into your bathroom is with a bath-side towel basket. This style works exceptionally well with rustic or farmhouse spaces. Choose a basket that fits the aesthetic of your bathroom. If your bathroom has a cottage/farmhouse feel, a wicker or woven basket would look especially beautiful next to your tub. You can elevate the look further by placing it on a stool so it’s tub height for added texture and visual appeal. Neatly roll up your towels and arrange them in the basket. These finishing touches help elevate the ambience of your bathroom, plus it’s more convenient when you’re getting out of the bath to have the towels next to you! This style of towel presentation is also an excellent option for a guest bathroom as it can double as a gift basket in which you can include further bathroom accessories and toiletries.

Rustic ladder style towel holder

Our following style works great across the board whether you have a farmhouse, Scandi, contemporary or even an industrial-style bathroom – ladder towel racks. A more stylistic choice, ladder towel racks are an easy way to turn a boring bathroom necessity such as towel storage into an eye-catching feature! These work well in larger bathrooms and can be easily moved so that you can change the location of your ladder for convenience. They’re becoming increasingly popular statement pieces for bathrooms due to their space stability and capacity to hold many towels without looking cluttered. It’s a more elevated take on draped towels and feels put together but still not overly formal. So, if you enjoy a more relaxed vibe in your bathroom, this style is for you!

Ultimately, how you style your towels is up to you, but if you were looking for ideas for something slightly left-of-centre and stylish, now you have lots to work with!
