I have bath towels, beach towels, kitchen towels, cleaning towels, and towels for various outdoor work, as well as a number of towels I can't even begin to explain. I'm all stocked up. Somebody save me from all this laundry/dryer lint.
Just how freaky does your freakishness go? Are you a 100% cotton freak or are you willing to settle for synthetic fabrics? Believe me, it matters. (looking at the micro fiber poly blends with judgement)
my beach towels are the cheep as’ ones with princesses on them that can buy at any outlet store. But when it comes to shower towels, I get all freaky with it and spare no expense ;)
There are about 15 bath towels and tons of hand towels and washcloths in the linen closet. There are also about 10 beach towels in there. There is a deep drawer full of kitchen linens too.
I tjhink it's 7 handtowels and 5 bathtowels but it's a long time since I did an inventory. It may sound a lot for a single person, but 2 in each category are what I think of as mainly "guest" towels.
