How to buying a Shower Curtain
| 08/14/2015Buying a shower curtain can be lots of fun. There are so many pretty designs and materials to choose from. But all those beautiful curtains out there could also get overwhelming, especially if you’re determined to get only the best. But one quick way to narrow down your choices would be to determine your bathroom’s theme. You could pick one that fits the style of the rest of the bathroom, or you could purchase a set of other accessories that matches the curtain that appeals to you most.
Determine your Bathroom Theme or Style.
If you are still about to determine the theme of your bathroom, you could start by looking at the more permanent features of your bathroom. Consider the color and material of the walls, the style and color of the tiles, the toilet, the sink, shower and vanity fixtures, and other parts of the bathroom you do not wish to change at the moment. Some people simply choose a new shower curtain bearing the same or similar color with the rest of the room. This is makes buying a new shower curtain a no-brainer activity. This method, however, could push the shower curtain back into the background, making it less noticeable. But if you really want to tap the potentials of a shower curtain, you should not be buying a new one just to let it hang on its rod and disappear in a monochromatic display. Instead, you could a curtain which would stand out and make a bold statement in the bathroom. Your shower curtain can even dictate the theme of your bathroom.
How do you plan to use your shower curtain?
When choosing a particular type of shower curtain, you should also consider how you are going to use it in the bathroom. Is it mainly about decorating? Would you use it to hide the shower area when no one is in the shower? Would you rather use the curtain to make the bathroom cozy or spacious? Knowing which type of curtain to buy will help you fulfill your goals in designing your bathroom.
Which material suits your bathroom best?
One key factor to consider when selecting a shower curtain for a particular purpose is its material. Shower curtains can either be made of plastic or fabric. The two serve different purposes. Fabric curtains are great for bathrooms which prioritize style. Hanging a fabric shower curtain in the bathroom lends the place a sophisticated and elegant effect. Because fabric could easily get damaged by moisture, fabric shower curtains are only often used in bigger bathrooms where the fabric could hang a bit further from splashes of water. You will be able to protect your fabric shower curtain with a curtain liner made of a plastic material to keep it from getting too soaked up with water.
On the other hand, plastic shower curtains are more often used in most types of bathrooms for their modern and contemporary look. More importantly, plastic materials are generally more resistant to mildew and other damages caused by moisture. Plastic curtains also come in exciting prints and styles, features which could help define your design theme.
