Despite my mother’s best efforts, I never have been able to get all my towels hung up nicely on towel bars every day. This has only gotten worse with Lil’ Duck’s arrival, as all of his towels are hooded and therefore not conducive to towel racks. So when we moved in here and painted both bathrooms, we gave up on towel bars altogether and put hooks up instead – relatively plain, brushed metal hooks that were on clearance at Target for $1. You could always go fancy if it works for your style too.
When Lil’ Duck is a bit older, we’ll put one down low so that he can hang up his own towel of course
