"At first, we just perched the toilet paper roll on the back of the toilet. But that was hard to reach and way too easy to knock into the bowl. The window ledge was too high. And, worst of all, someone started putting the roll on the floor. Cringe. By day three, my mom came to visit. She took one look at the situation and said something I never would've expected: "Get a CD tower.""
"If you grew up in the '90s, you probably remember the tall, narrow towers designed to hold dozens of CDs. They're slim, vertical, and often made from wire or plastic. As my mom explained, the dimensions of a CD shelf are actually perfect for toilet paper storage. Each shelf fits a standard roll, the narrow frame tucks neatly between the toilet and the wall,"
During a temporary 10-week stay in a near-new short-term rental, the main bathroom featured a European layout that isolated the toilet in a small room without storage. Toilet paper was initially placed on the toilet, on a too-high window ledge, and sometimes on the floor. A tall, narrow CD tower offers an effective solution because its shelves match standard roll dimensions and its slim frame fits between the toilet and wall, holding four to six rolls. A thrifted black mesh-metal CD tower measured 29 inches tall and six inches wide and deep, proving inexpensive and practical for bathroom storage.
