I a drawer in the junk spare room.
If I was super rich I would only use super soft towels once before donating them to the peasants.

I keep mine on a shelf in the bedroom cupboard. I know there are fancy storage solutions for keeping towels in the bathroom, or in baskets, but Iâve had tiny bathrooms so its impractical for me. But if you google âtowel storage ideasâ that should help with some (cheap) suggestions.

We replaced our divans with ottoman beds which are much easier to store more things under. My hubby is currently looking to see if there is a way to lift the bases with a motor rather than having to rely on a variation of a weightlifters clean and jerk motion lol

Iâm lucky, weâve still got an airing cupboard but my son doesnât and they keep theirs on the landing outside the bathroom in one of these Ikea boxes
It works quite well because itâs by a radiator so they stay nice and dry and slightly warm and if they want a clean one they can just grab one on the way into the bathroom

We lost our airing cupboard years ago when we fitted a combo boiler. But itâs still a cupboard & we use that.

I was faced with that linen/towel problem, so I requested a small radiator in the cupboard for the colder months.

Our combo boiler is at the back of our cupboard. So that, plus the pipes, provide some warmth. Not sufficient to dry anything. But sufficient to keep things warm.
Sadly LED bulbs are too low a wattage, but the old 100 watt bulbs, were more than capable of warming a small cupboard. The same with one of those low wattage frost beater heating tubes.

I like that - wish there was an Ikea near me.
@Maree - just been looking in Ikea on line - cannot find that lovely box. Do they have a special name for it? Have tried ottoman, blanket box, and linen storage.
Found it on Amazon. Called Ikea HOL Coffee table/storage box

Oh no, I just looked, Melgal 70 is right, it is the HOL one but theyâve discontinued them 
He didnât pay that much for it in Ikea, about ÂŁ30 I think
He made a kitty litter box out of one as well youâd have been interested in! Iâll see if I can find the photos

What is really scary is I have posted in a thread about towel storage.
If this is living the dream please wake me up.

We donât have any air boxes. In fact, I never heard of this.
We launder towels, then rotate using them to keep them fluffy. As for heavier blankets and extra curtains, we wash them, put them in plastic (suck the air out to save space), then wash them when we take them out in the fall use them again. Freshness going in storage on the shelf, and freshness coming out.

Sorry itâs not as cheap as the discontinued IKEA one. Donât shoot the messenger. lol.

Most are in the airing cupboard, but the over flow goes into draws under the beds.
It just goes to show, Ikea furniture is an investment! Who would have thunk it?

What a great idea!

I looked it up. Itâs where people put their towels when theyâre almost dry to finish drying. Thatâs because most people air dry their clothes in other places.
Here, pretty much everyone has a clothes dryer so the clothes are bone dry when you put them away. And when itâs cold you can pop them into the dryer for added warmth.
