Door hangers
Accessory for towels can be placed in different ways. Depending on the area of the bathroom, the availability of free space on the wall and, in general, based on personal preferences.
As a rule, the towel rail on the door is the perfect solution for a bathroom of a modest size. In the bathrooms of standard apartments there was no free space at all for such an element as the holder, therefore the inside of the door was a worthy solution to such a problem.
In this case, the shape of the accessory could be very different: from single hooks, to a roomy bar to accommodate almost all bath accessories.
Wall hangers
This category has the largest variety.
For example, a model with several hooks for bath accessories at the bottom of the hanger, and a convenient shelf at the top. Towels can be not only neatly folded, but also hang, as the shelf consists of several individual tubes.
Another option that deserves universal approval is the “spinner”. The tubes move freely and allow towels to be placed either close to each other or at a distance to dry. Very practical thing.
Laconic design, but at the same time very functional. In addition to the two rows for towels, there are small hooks for other little things.
Hangers
Outdoor accessory is the lot of spacious bathrooms.
Due to the variety of options offered, you can choose a hanger of the desired style, size and color. Such an accessory has a stable base and is made of wood, metal or plastic.
In addition to the slats, hangers are equipped with a shelf-tray in which it is convenient to store towels, bathrobes and other necessary things.
Holders are made stationary or mobile, which helps to better use the space of the room.
Hangers hooks
It is difficult to imagine a more affordable option to restore order in the bathroom, and hang everything in its place. The only drawback is that the towels dry for a long time on such a mount.
Hooks are single, double or built. They are placed on the bracket, allowing you to freely slide or attach, making it immobile. Hanger hooks are made massive to make part of the bathroom decor, or, conversely, barely noticeable, so that they perform only their immediate task - to hold a towel.
How to make a towel hanger with your own hands?
Required materials and tools
Depending on what kind of hanger you are going to do with your own hands, you will need different tools and materials. It can be pieces of leather or old leather items, massive beads and other accessories, wire or fishing line, as well as glue and paint. Tools are needed to attach the structure to the wall (for example, a drill, an anchor, a screwdriver, or just liquid nails). For some options, you may have to make a drawing.
Spartan crossbar
If you are limited in means, but there is an overwhelming desire to make a towel holder with your own hands, then the Spartan crossbar is the right choice.
To create an accessory you need:
- Wooden or metal pipes;
- Rectangular cut leather;
- Fastening to the wall (suitable screws);
- Glue (or liquid nails).
Two identical leather pieces fold in half and fasten to the wall. The following fastener is located at the level of the first, but 10 cm less than the length of a wooden stick (or pipe). After the loops are attached to the wall, a stick (pipe) is placed in them.
Such holders can be placed in the bathroom in a staggered manner. Three crossbars look different on different levels. The convenience of the design lies in the fact that you yourself determine the parameters of the holder and at what distance to place the lower stages.
Stylish ring
Also an easy option. For its manufacture need beads, wire, a piece of leather belt, as well as pliers and paint.
A loop is made of leather and fixed to the wall. Beads are strung on a wire, closed in a ring and covered with paint. After drying, the "beads" are threaded into the loop. Or, as an option, a leather loop can be placed between the beads.
The main thing that they were round and did not do "hooks" on the towel.

Stone Hook
In some cases, the necessary parts for work literally roll under your feet. A figurative thinking and a little imagination helps to see in them the future masterpiece.
A simple but very effective idea - a hook made of stone. Finding an oblong pebble of interesting shape, do not rush to discard it. Attaching to the wall (for example, on a special glue) you can get excellent hangers.
An even more interesting idea is how to preserve memories of a vacation at sea. Such a model can be made using screws and metal cylinders. After inserting the screws into the cylinders, we screw them into the wooden bar. And we fasten stones to the screw caps using universal glue.
Wooden hooks
Since there is no shortage of interesting and suitable shapes in the branches, you can make towel hangers using them.
The liked wooden element should be treated with fine sandpaper so that its surface is smooth. Then cover with any paint and attach to the wall.
The more diverse the shape of such hooks, the more creative your bathroom will look.
Leather hooks
To make such a hanger with your own hands will require pieces of leather, wooden cylinders and long screws.
Remove the caps from the screws and insert them into the wooden cylinders with the pointed end facing out. A piece of leather belt fold in half and drill a hole. Then, drilling a hole in the wall, fasten the structure with a screw.
Concrete Hooks
It should be noted that if there is no desire to mess with concrete, you can take any material that tends to harden (clay, for example).
For the manufacture of such hangers use the form for cookies. Pour mixture there and allow to dry. Then the usual metal coat hanger is applied to the back side and it is poured with a thick layer of cement or clay. Dry again.
Faucet hooks
A bold and interesting idea. If there are deposits of water taps in the storeroom, which you are unlikely to use for its intended purpose, do not rush to throw them away.
Find a wooden base and attach to it in any order, these simple objects, having previously painted them in different colors.
To make towel hangers do not need expensive materials or superpowers. Perhaps everything you need to create a creative accessory is at your fingertips, the main thing is to use it skillfully.
