I have very little storage space. I have a dream of finding a towel rack that will fit behind my bathroom door, mounted to the wall, that will hold at least ten towels. If you happen to know where I can find this, you will be my new best friend forever! I have looked in stores and online. Maybe you know something I don't, please share and help to make my life a little bit less messy! TY!

do you mean towels laid over as in a towel bar, or folded/rolled?

The reason I ask is because I have the same issue, and I bought a train rack which mounts to the wall, closer to the ceiling. I roll my bath towels, and stacking them that way, I can get about 10 on there. It's quite useful and keeps them out of the way. Here are a bunch of them at Restoration Hardware: http://www.restorationhardware.com/rh/catalog/category/category_w_products.jsp?navSrc=leftNav&navAction=jump&navCount=2&categoryId=cat830002 Not sure if that's what you're looking for, though.

THIS is a neat site. Maybe you can combine an over the door rack with a shower curtain rod duo, or a door hinge rack...?

Noooo, I tried the over the door thing...not good. I have about five inches of space to work with behind my door. I know someone who has the hinge door rack and it swings out of control. See, I told y'all I wanted the impossible!

Okay, well you are going to think I am nuts! I would like one rack that is silver, five to six feet tall and would fit behind a bathroom door mounted to the wall. It would have vertical bars from top to bottom, around ten, so I could hang towels from them. I might have to invent this myself I guess!

So you want something more of a UK style towel rail, but without the heat, yes? LINK
PS - I don't think you're nuts, lol, you just know what you want!

Is this it? I saw them online but didn't stop to view the photo because living in Florida, we avoid as much heat as we can!

What about going to the hardware store and finding some designer rod holders and mounting them to the wall and then getting some small, like kitchen window rods to mount on them to place the towels on. I found this picture of large ones but my local hardware store has beautiful decorative small metal ones in gold pewter,bronze and so on.

Yankee where did you get your train rack? That is a great idea! I have a storage issue too and I think I might copy you

i am looking for one of those wood bench gliders. it looks just like a wood bench (no overhead awning), but it rocks back and forth. i would like it for my front porch. i'll supply the lemonade and the cool summer breeze.
