Choosing a Brass Paper Towel Holder
When shopping for a paper towel holder, you should first decide where you want to keep your paper towels. If you have a lot of counter space, or want the freedom to move your towels to different spots in your kitchen, you should choose a paper towel stand. Brass paper towel stands are also the right choice if you don’t want to drill holes in your walls or cabinets.
If you’re tight on counter space, or just want to move your paper towels off your counter, then choose either a wall-mounted or under-cabinet brass paper towel holder. With both of these options, you will need to drill holes in either your wall or kitchen cabinets to permanently install your holder.
As long as you don’t have a tile backsplash, installing a wall-mounted holder is easy (see this post for installation instructions).
I recommend using a professional to install a paper towel holder on a tile backsplash, unless you’re experienced in working with tiles.
Once you’ve decided where to keep your paper towel holder, decide what finish you want. You can choose a plain brass finish, which looks great in any kitchen. If you already have stainless steel appliances, no need to worry. Brass is a wonderful complement to stainless steel.
Some homeowners who have stainless steel appliances prefer to use a paper towel holder that combines brass with chrome (which looks like stainless steel). Really, the choice is up to you. For more information, here’s an interesting article on how to combine brass and stainless steel in your kitchen decor.
Caring for a Brass Paper Towel Holder
Your brass paper towel stand should be durable enough to look fabulous for a lifetime. Paper towel holders usually require minimal cleaning; simply wiping them with a cloth moistened with a gentle detergent should do the trick. Do not allow the brass to air dry. Gently dry with a clean, soft cloth.
If your holder needs extra cleaning, be careful – many commercial cleaners can damage brass. There are many common household items that you can use to clean brass – this article is full of great ideas.
