I am a big fan of the niche Firsthouse made in her island for the papertowel.

I like mine out in the open where visitors can find it easily.

I had DH make a little niche for me under the cabinets, behind the blind corner cabinet. When I want to "hide" the paper towel roll, I just roll it up.

If I want it to be seen, I pull down a sheet.

Please ignore the unfinished details of the tile--we are not finished, yet.

Thank you for the great ideas. Shelayne, I love your tile, border and canisters! Pillog, you do have a point. Thank you all so much.
