SIMPLE SOLUTIONS
In the sink
It seems that the whim of a stylist is to throw a towel in the sink. But no. On Houzz uploaded hundreds of thousands of pictures of kitchens. And this decision is found in projects from around the world. It is hardly a coincidence: we assume that many of the hosts comfortably in the cooking process to shift the edge of the towel in the sink.
Use if: the Kitchen is without handles; mentally prepared for the scenario “has finished cooking — they sent a towel in the Laundry.”

Where cut — there stored
If you have the habit of using a bread towel (to hold the baguette on the Board), keep a napkin is clearly a need for a separate “work”. Alternatively, you use the rails under the shelf of the kitchen Cabinet.

Use if: you want to store beautiful kitchen towels. Cloth for cutting bread can be lace.

Under the sink on the holder
The solution from the interior photo, there are two important points: first — the location of the holder (where most use a towel). The second design of the holder: such rings are usually offered in collections for the bathroom. But nothing, it turns out, not stopping to hang towels in the kitchen that way.
Use if: you Have a habit to wipe his hands after washing dishes.

On the handle of the oven and the hook headset
In this project, kitchen towels hanging on the stove “DFM”. But if you look closely, you working towel hostess keeps on specially screwed the hook between the lockers.
Use if: the Kitchen is large, and you don’t want to run her over with a towel. One towel on the stove, the other at the sink.
Next to the door
A solution for every kitchen. The width of the jamb (75mm — standard) enough so that the hooks do not interfere with the passage.
But it is important that the towel holder was at arm’s length from the stove or sink (as in the interior photo). If from your plate to hook to stretch further — don’t be surprised that the towels will be anywhere, but not hanging in place.
Use if: From the sink or plate can effortlessly reach the holder.

On a ladder
Such a storage of towels in the kitchen requires a certain square footage of the premises and the desire to “keep the air”. The wall could be furniture, but it put the ladder up. The stairs could be tightly “download”, but it’s only been a couple of towels.
Enlarge photo to consider: the working a towel hanging by the loop on the hook. Spare over the crossbar.
Use if: the Kitchen is spacious, and the staircase is easy (here on the left hand).

To the rail on the wall
Solution for the “front” kitchens and towels. If you imagine the “honest” working towel, it will most likely be the spots that the last time is not “taken” bleach. This on the rails in front of the eyes will not hang.

Organizer inside of the Cabinet
Kitchen manufacturers filling in the number of standard mounts and stands offer, including sections for hanging kitchen towels. Choose the option with the possibility of pulling the loop and pull the holder from the depths of the wardrobe.
Use if: you Have a habit to wipe up spilled water with a towel, and then it need somewhere to hang to dry.
SO it is IMPOSSIBLE: hang the holders on the back side of the door.
Hangers on the door — the invention useful. Most importantly, hang them by the rails on the inside, not the outside (as shown in photo from a Chinese online store). Open the door in one motion. And visual rubbish in the kitchen much less.
Use if: it is Necessary to hide gloves and a towel at the same time.

Under the table
Another way to hang a towel in the kitchen — below eye level under the table. Please note: the roof made it almost the full length of the kitchen island. Conveniently, you do not “aim”: the towel can be hung in any location of rails.
Use if: Used a towel to brush the crumbs from the dining table.

Inside the top of the locker
A popular option is the idea of storing towels in the kitchen — use holder inside the top of the module.
Use if: Order the frame of the kitchen Cabinet made of solid or MDF. Or he’s already made of these materials. To saw through the bottom of the locker made of particleboard does swell.

DURING THE NEXT REPAIR
Extend the countertop
On the rails at the end of the U-shaped kitchen should be thinking at the time of order headset. Please note: the designer specifically brought the countertop outside of the lockers. The result — the roof on the passage, but cling to it. The second convenient thing — the rounded corners of the tabletop.
If you screwed the rails to the end of the existing kitchen (and extending the countertop over it), it is easy to instruct yourself the bruises.
Use if: the Kitchen is small, on the headset no handles, and place for towels on the passage.
