Plastic Paper Holders are also popular, especially in a white bathroom. So that it goes along with the wall tiles. Setting it up is easy. Just buy it and screw them up, and you are done.

But I recommend you get at least two of them so that your work in there never gets disturbed and you never feel annoyed. 

This idea is similar to the steel paper roll holder idea. But I prefer the steel one, despite its cost.

4. Get a Wooden Paper Holder

Look, the wooden holder can be anything, and you can build it at home like a DIY project. But these are easily available in the store. Just go there and choose the design you like and set it up with a screw.

It will give your bathroom a uniqueness like the human face paper holder idea and may make you feel a bit classy.

You can also go with steel if you do not like wood. But I prefer wood over steel unless it gets too much water in the bathroom. Again I leave that to you. “Steel is good, but the wood is better.”
