The feeling you get when in a hotel: always perfect and luxurios. If you want to have this feeling at home, here’s what you have to do.

  1. Place the bath towel on a  flat surface. Fold one long end to the middle and repeat on the other side.
  2. Fold each short end towards the middle and make sure to leave a space where the ends meet. You will thus have place for one more fold.
  3.  Take one end and fold it over the other.  Smooth out the surface and store towels in their designated space.
