subject: Give Your Kitchen An Update Cheaply [print this page] Sometimes it's the little things that make a big difference. When you think about what is going to go in your kitchen, you normally think about what your stove will look like, what your countertops will look like and things like that. You rarely think about something as small as a kitchen paper towel holder. The little things like a trash can, paper towel holder, napkin holder or even salt and pepper shakers can add a finishing touch to anyone's kitchen.
They can also add just what is needed to spruce up a dull kitchen. If you're thinking about updating your kitchen but money is an issue, consider updating your look with matching small kitchen items. When you're creating your kitchen, don't disregard the small items, they make a difference too. Add all your kitchen accessories to your budget.
Something as seemingly insignificant as a paper towel holder can class up your kitchen. Not only is it functional, but there are so many varieties that you can find something to fit your kitchen dcor and spice it up a bit. Kitchen towel holders can range from the type that fit under your cabinets or beneath your sink to the kind that sit up on the counter top.
Paper towel holders will range in price from $15 to $30 or more. You can find wooden towel holders, steel ones and many in between. You can get a kitchen paper towel holder that magnetically attaches to your refrigerator or other appliances. If you need it outside or in a work area, the magnets can attach to any type of metal cabinet, such as a tool box.
Most holders are made for easy tear off with one hand, even ones that just sit on top of the counter. A weighted base keeps it from sliding and a spring arm holds the roll in place. There's nothing worse than pulling a paper towel and the roll falls over or you are struggling trying to just get one sheet. Innovative designs keep the edge of the towel easily accessible so you don't have to look for the end. Newer holders are made to keep the roll from unraveling, so don't worry about pulling off more sheets than necessary either.
And paper towel holders don't have to be just for the kitchen either. If you have a guest bathroom, many people find it easier and less germy to place a paper towel roll on the sink, rather than to use cloth towels.
