From dogs to cats and farm animals, these designs are some of the most attention-grabbing options out there.

Keep in mind that, in most cases, they’ll follow a horizontal rather than vertical design, which might need some getting used to.

Wanting a unique paper towel holder that stands out doesn’t automatically mean that you must choose the brightest colors and run the risk of compromising your palette.

There are all kinds of unique paper towel holders that combine a wall-mount design with other functional elements, so take the time to figure out what else could be useful in your kitchen.

Maybe it’s a spice rack or a practical slot to grab some foil without ripping the entire sheet?
