Easy to assemble

I am expecting company in a few days.  I may have mentioned this before.  It's been on my mind a lot lately.  In fact I've been waking up at odd hours of the night (like 4:00am) thinking of things I still need to do or trying to decide what to feed two adults and four children, ages 2-12.  Last night at 3:56am I realized that I don't have enough towel racks in my guest bathroom.  So, today, after church, I took myself to Walmart and, with the help of a friendly clerk who led me half way across the store to the hardware area, I found, and purchased, an over the door towel rack.  The package said it would be easy to assemble, and guess what, it was.  Six little screws and my handy-dandy Phillips screwdriver and, hey, presto, I have an over the door towel rack.  Only two problems: (1) with the towel rack in place the door won't close so no privacy. A lot of people like privacy in the bathroom.  and (2) it bangs agains the wall when the door is open.  I really don't want holes in the drywall.  Happily, I have come up with a solution.  I hung the towel rack in the guest bedroom (which is pretty close to the bathroom) on the outside of the closet door.  Nobody cares if the closet door doesn't close tightly and at least there is a relatively handy place to hang three big damp bath towels. I know, I know there are six people coming but, hey, it's a start, and there's always the shower rod.
