Victorian Bath Towel HolderThis bath towel holder is made of a length of wide velvet ribbon that is passed through three rings and then doubled. Two of the rings are placed in the folds, while the third comes where the ends are joined and is used to suspend the holder. Through each of the other rings a fancy bath-towel is drawn to fall gracefully. The ribbon is decorated with tiny rings sewed all over it in a simple figure design. Wooden rings of the kind illustrated are obtainable for a small sum. A strip of linen, ornamented with out-line stitching, or without any decoration, may take the place of ribbon. Note: If metal rings are used, it is advisable to crochet over them with cord.  Click on picture to see more detail. More Victorian Bath Towel Holder IdeasWooden rings may be utilized in a variety of practical and pretty ways about the lavatory. The following ideas are not only practical and economical, but attractive as well.Four wooden rings, hung in a row, will hold several towels, and where the ablutions of two or more persons are performed, the rings holding the special towels of each may be marked with initials done in fancy-headed tacks or nails. A ring larger than those illustrated, with several hooks or screw-eyes fastened in it, may be utilized to good advantage where space is limited. Besides holding bath-towels, a wash-bag, shoe-bag and similar articles may be suspended from it; and, if arranged to hang at different lengths, no one article will infringe upon another. A practical hint, not misplaced in this connection, is as follows: use round cord for suspending any receptacle that is to receive much weight. Cord of this description will bear the strain imposed upon it much longer than tape, braid or any flatly woven material. Return to top of Bath Towel Holder page Return to Victorian Crafts page.
