When upgrading your bathroom décor, few objects will make as much of an impact on the overall look and feel as a toilet paper holder.
Unless you have a bidet, you likely interact with your toilet paper—and by extension, your toilet paper holder—about as much as any other object in your bathroom.
There are three main types of toilet paper holders: wall-mounted, stands, and bulk storage. Whatever your feelings are about the over/under debate, these toilet paper holders are sure to level up your bathroom décor.
1. West Elm Newmade LA Toilet Paper Holder
Available in a few color options, this holder from Newmade LA, available at West Elm, veritably hums with interior-design ethos.

The holder is powder-coated steel and it keeps the roll in place with a wood rod.
Depending on your choice of color, this bathroom tissue holder can feel understated and minimalist or sharp and vibrant.
The hood also doubles as a shelf, making for a nice rest for a candle, or your phone.
