I Found These Chic Kitchen Paper Towel Holders, and They’re Perfect for Staying Organized This Hosting Season
It's time to make organization stylish again, and let's not forget the smallest of details — paper towels! Here are a few must-have items I found while on my shopping journey

Who said that organization couldn't be chic and stylish? When hosting guests, I love to look at the finer details. Let's step away from obvious decor and look towards the items we often overlook. Perhaps paper towels? Wrapped gracefully around cylinders, paper towels can often be left to fend for themselves, but in my opinion, if you're going to put effort into your silverware, tablecloth, and even the fine China, you certainly should not overlook paper towels and their holders.
It's easy to forget the little things when inviting family and friends over, and I totally get it. But trust me, an organized kitchen is one that will ease your burdens and help you avoid any spills and mishaps along the way. You're probably thinking, "It's just a paper towel holder. What's the big deal?" but I think it's more than just that. A wipe or two may suffice for some, but when it comes to guests, you'll probably need to pass your paper towel along the dining room floor.
Aside from keeping your paper towels organized, I believe paper towel holders can be a stylish addition to your kitchen and its needs. To ease your shopping experience, I decided to scour the web to find affordable, sleek, and fashionable kitchen paper towel holders that will effortlessly support you with the holiday festivities and help you stay organized.

FAQs
Are Paper Towel Holders really Worth it?
In my books, the answer is yes. Paper towel holders will help you organize your space and those loose paper towels. I mean, it wouldn't make much sense without one, am I right? And, Livingetc's Managing Editor, Debbie Black, seems to agree.
"To be honest, I'd think you were a little bit odd if you used paper towels but didn't have a paper towel holder — why would you not?!" says Debbie. "Of late, I've actually been keeping mine in an easy-to-reach cupboard in an attempt to clear more clutter from my countertops, but it is a little bit of a shame it's tucked away because it's a really nice holder! Either way, I love it for keeping my paper towels neatly in one place."
