3. Brushed Brass Minimalist Round Hoop

Ditching traditional bulky bars, a slim circular hoop crafted from solid brushed brass offers a chic, boutique-hotel vibe. Mounted directly to an empty wall space or the side of a vanity cabinet, this minimalist ring cradles a folded hand towel with effortless grace.

How to Make It

  • Bend a solid brass rod into an 8-inch diameter circle using a mandrel, ensuring the ends meet cleanly at a custom-milled mounting block.
  • Polish the brass to a soft, brushed finish and coat with a clear lacquer to prevent tarnishing from bathroom humidity.
  • Attach a concealed mounting bracket to the back of the block for a seamless, floating attachment to the wall.

Tips and Variations

  • Opt for an asymmetric oval hoop shape for a modern, avant-garde twist.
  • Pair the brass ring with crisp white waffle-weave hand towels to maximize contrast.
