I used plastic drywall anchors to mount a towel ring to the bathroom
wall. The anchors have pulled out of the wall.

I've used toggle bolts in the past, but they require pretty large
holes, and the holes for this particular mounting are only about an
inch apart.

Suggestions?

All we have in my town is a crappy Menard's with untrained staff. We
don't get any of that "How can I help you with your project" that we
used to get at the home stores in bigger cities.

I routinely use 1 1/8" X 2 or 3" toggle and one plastic anchor per towel
ring/bar bracket. The plastic anchor has little or no holding power but
adds stability from twisting. You should never install 2 toggles that
close together. Cause you have turned your wall into Swiss cheese. The 1/8"
wing only requires about 5/16" hole.

In 19 years I have never had a call-back because of failure.
