This might be the smartest paper towel storage hack i’ve ever tried

2025-10-13

I have a busy family of six, which means organizing often falls to the bottom of my to-do list. Hidden spaces like my pantry are especially easy to ignore. On top of that, my kids are very messy so I buy paper towels in bulk. I keep a few extra rolls in the pantry and store the rest in our basement, but it’s far from a perfect system. My kids go through paper towels at an alarming rate and never want to run downstairs to restock.

I officially hit my breaking point when I caught my son wiping his hands on his clean jeans because, according to him, we were “out” of paper towels (even though we had at least a dozen rolls in the basement). Expanding our pantry wasn’t an option, so I started looking for a solution I could implement quickly and cheaply. That’s when I came across an Apartment Therapy article featuring a simple, no-drill storage trick that took just minutes to set up. I had to try it.
