If you are looking for an easy, inexpensive way to revitalize your bathroom, consider changing your shower curtain. Though we often take them for granted, shower curtains are at the center of a bathroom’s décor. As the largest thing in the room, they set the mood and the style temperature for the entire bathroom. In addition, since a bathroom is largely functional, a shower curtain is one of the few opportunities to make a statement.
Shower curtains are available in many different styles, colors, and designs. They are also available in a variety of materials, such as vinyl, cotton, polyester, linen, and plastic. Some of the most popular, though, are the fabric shower curtains.
Fabric shower curtains can be made from not only standard percale, but also denim, satin, brocade, and terry cloth, among many other fabrics. Most fabric shower curtains are machine washable, which means they are easy to care for. Most will require the use of a shower curtain liner.
Anton Petrovich turned into the passage, followed the arrow to men, mankind, human beings, marched past the toilet, past the kitchen, gave a start when a cat darted under his feet, quickened his step, reached the end of the passage, pushed open a door, and a shower of sunlight splashed his face.
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
Fabric shower curtains can come in any style, from simple to sophisticated. They can be solid, a print, or with appliqués or embroidery. The possibilities are nearly endless.
Some are shaped like traditional flat-paneled curtains; others are more creative in style. For a country look or a romantic one, ruffled curtains are a popular choice. Some fabric shower curtains mimic the look of window drapes, complete with top valance and pull-back sides.
Fabric shower curtains are available with different attachment methods, as well, including button, tie, Velcro, snap, and the traditional hook.
If you are feeling creative, fabric shower curtains are an easy do-it-yourself project. Complete directions are available at the Waverly website.
And I rose
In rainy autumn
And walked abroad in a shower of all my days.
—Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
Fabric curtains are a quick and easy way to give your bathroom an inexpensive bathroom makeover. They are available in any style and any color that you desire. You can then base the entire room’s color and decorations around the curtain. Voila! Instant style.
