Recently I was reaching around our sofa to grab hold of our well-hidden tissue box. As I contorted myself to pull out a tissue, I realized just how silly it was to conceal our tissue box! But, quite honestly, I dislike most tissue box designs in general. The colours are either too garish (purple, blue, orange and brown, oh my!) or just so unimaginative (kittens with party hats? oh dear!). So I resolved then and there to find some modern tissue box covers that I wouldn’t have to hide anymore.
Until that moment of contorted realization, I hadn’t seriously considered the ‘need’ for tissue box covers. After all, their just tissues. But, as someone who is constantly reaching for all those hidden tissue boxes strategically placed around our house, I realized that this dilemma could easily be addressed by simply sourcing out tissue box covers – on Amazon and Etsy, of course – that could work within our neutral and modern home aesthetic.
And I’ll wager that there are more than a few of you who can relate.
So, if you’re tired of bringing home tissue boxes that look more like ugly Christmas sweaters, then this post is for you 🙂

One of the first tissue box covers that truly caught my eye was this beautiful, Scandi-inspired wooden tissue box cover. Perfect for any bright or neutral space.
I love how bright and modern this next tissue box is! I could see this cute house design working on a small surface in a bathroom or workspace.
This rattan cover says casual coastal to me. Don’t you just love it? It also comes in a square shape, too.
Gold is still trendy and yet so vintage, too. I think that’s why this sweet white and gold pineapple design stood out the moment I laid eyes on it.
I couldn’t resist adding this next one to my list. It’s for all the cat lovers out there (like me!).
Modern minimalists will love this black and white design. I just adore this minimal cross pattern.
As a crafter who loves working with yarn, you will not be surprised to find this textured crochet cover on my top 10 list. I think it’s the perfect blend of modern style with a vintage vibe.
Words cannot express just how stunning this handmade wooden box is. It’s made from strips of cherry, maple, ash and other woods, too. So unique and just so beautiful.
For those who love textiles as much as I do, this grey felt cover would make a great addition to just about any space. It comes in other colours and shapes, too.
Last, but certainly not least, this all-in-one cover and organizer solution will keep your remotes (or any small odds and ends) organized in one place. Perfect for a side table, a nightstand, or workspace too. Simply genius.
Well, I hope you enjoyed this little roundup of my favourite tissue box covers. I’ve ordered the first on the list for our living room – can’t wait for it to arrive! No more contorting 🙂
But, as any cat lover can attest to, that cat tissue cover is also calling out to me. Decisions, decisions. Well, you never know. It just may end up in our home, too 🙂

Have you come across a cute one for the Kleenex hand towels? Tall, rectangle box with a slanted top.
Thank you.
