Hand towel – The most versatile Bath Towel

May 26th, 2009

A hand towel is the most versatile among all types of bath towel. A hand towel is typically rectangular in shape. It is larger than a wash cloth and smaller than a bath towel. Hand towels exhibit all the qualities of a standard bath towel. They are available in a variety of colors and designs. You can buy a hand towel with higher thread count for better absorbency.

* Hand towels are normally hung on a loop or a hanger besides the bathroom sink. This enables people dry their hands and face after having washed them in the sink.

* Hand towels help men to wipe up their faces after shaving.

* Besides hand towels meant for every day use, there are special hand towels which are termed as guest towels. As the name suggest these towels are taken out when you are some guests at your home. These hand towels are either embroidered or sculpted in a way that they look alluring and inviting. These are normally bright colored hand towels placed near the sink hinting the visitor which towel to use. Guest towels are more of a decoration item than a utility.

* Golf towels are nothing but hand towels with a grommet in one corner to enable the golfer to easily attach it to his hand bag.

Top Tips for Buying Bath Towels

February 18th, 2007
As much work and effort as you’ve put into your bathroom it’s never complete without one important, almost essential, accessory. What is that? The bath towel of course! The bathroom towel is more than a mere accessory… it’s an essential item for every single bathroom in the world. Your bathroom should be as comfortable as possible in every sense of the word and this includes quality, comfortable bath towels in all shapes and sizes.

Most people just see a towel as something use to dry yourself after a bath, shower or even shaving. Towels mean a bit more than that though; people can be very particular about their towels – almost to excess at times. The look, feel and shape of the towel are always important – if you’re really honest with yourself. You need to ask yourself the question – “What type of towel person are you?”. Are you the type that likes the soft, velvety terry towels or do you much prefer a rougher towel to rub yourself down with after bathing? This is something to really consider before you go out and buy a new towel bale.

When looking for new towels there are two basic types to pick from – the hand towel and the bath towel. A hand towel is a small towel normally kept near a sink in a bathroom or small separate toilet. It’s just a small convenient towel for your family or guests to dry their hands on. They just make more sense in the small spaces surrounding a sink and are less awkward to handle than a large bath towel.

Now we can have a look at the actual bath towel itself. These come in all shapes and sizes with something to suit every taste and every budget. It’s important to look at your current bathroom decor and then mentally picture what type of towel would suit the room. If you’ve spent time and money on redecorating your bathroom then why spoil it by adding cheap, color mismatched towels to the room? If you shop clever then a great idea is to buy a towel bale that has the same shape and style of towel in several sizes – your hand towels and bath towels will match in every room!

Buying a quality bath towel will also save you money in the long run. Cheaper bath towels tend to wear faster – that is they tend to fall apart after several months. You shouldn’t ever cut corners when buying something so personal as a bath towel.

There are dozens of great online stores to find bath towels in so why not start looking today?
