One of the quickest, easiest and least expensive ways to brighten up your bathroom is to get a new shower curtain. They also protect your floor, your tub and your privacy. There are many options available, and as many styles to choose from as you could imagine. There are two main types of shower curtains - vinyl or PVC, and fabric curtains, often used with a vinyl liner to protect the fabric.
Vinyl shower curtains come in any number of colors and styles. You may choose a clear curtain, or one that is opaque. There are many designs and patterns available, as well as curtains with popular cartoon and movie characters designed for small children. Think about the colors and theme in your bathroom dcor and you can find a curtain to match or coordinate.
Vinyl is often used in informal bathrooms, as well as those most often used by children. The curtains themselves are easy to find in a variety of styles, as well as relatively inexpensive to re-place if you you're not interested in cleaning them. While you can buy a mildew resistant vinyl curtain, it will need to either be cleaned or replaced eventually, to take care of any dirt, soap scum and mildew.
Fabric shower curtains are often used in more formal bathrooms, or for a more posh, spa-like feeling. A fabric shower curtain will need a vinyl liner to protect it from water. These liners are very inexpensive, so when it comes time to clean your shower curtain, you can throw away and replace the liner, and wash the fabric portion. Fabric shower curtains can be made from almost any kind of fabric. If you are using a sheer or partially sheer fabric, consider using an opaque shower curtain liner in a color that goes with your bathroom theme. Fabric curtains also come in a variety of textures. Texture can be a way to add interest to any room, even when you don't want to add too much color.
Remember the hardware! You'll need to make sure you have a curtain rod that won't rust, firmly attached. There are many kinds of shower curtain hooks to go with many kinds of dcor. For example, a Nautical themed bathroom might use sea shell, star, or anchor themed curtain rings. You can buy simple plastic or metal rings and hooks in many colors and finishes as well. This small addition could be the finishing touch to your bathroom dcor.
